I cannot fault the widow of the IRS agent. I certainly would be out for blood if my world was turned upside down. Still, I cannot fault the widow of the pilot either. What could she have done?
I do fault the attorney that took the case and filed the suit while her husband was still (figuratively) warm. Granted, I am a legal idiot, but it seems to me any attorney with a strong sense of ethics would have explained her options while advising her to take it slow.
But for a legal whore this would mean:
1. She might change her mind.
2. She would find a different attorney.
Must you insult whores???
Perhaps the pilot’s daughter coming out and saying her father was a hero (or something to that effect) pushed the the grieved widow over the edge on this one? Pure speculation.
She had to act quickly:
