Yeah, I was thinking along those lines also/
$8000 seems like a disappointing settlement amount
for any lawyer who had to spend time building a case
for his client. Lawyers usually get 1/3 of these settlements
so yes, it was around $2666.66. Nice payday if it only involved filing,paperwork, deposition,etc. But just barely acceptable to a lawyer for these kinds of claims.
Undoubtedly they started at 50 times that amount and a few hours with an arbitrator or the team of Disney lawyers settled on this relatively miniscule amount of $8K. Disney is just one among thousands of corporate entities seen as
“deep pocket” sources of income for lawyers and their “horribly wronged” clients.
I’m waiting for this family to sue...or maybe they’ve had. They want the White Rabbit fired because the White Rabbit is racist! ARGH!
