Lawyers said that $650,000 of that sum would go toward attorney’s fees.

The “usual” lawyer’s fee of 80% of the settlement.
Laws are made by this elite class called lawyers.
Time for Trump to take a shot across the bow at this profession.
Is as going to say that $800K buys a lot of panties. Well, so does $150K.
OTOH, an 80% lawyer rake means they weren’t too excited about their case’s prospects. The usual speculative fee is more like one third.
That caught my attention. Holy cow. These people picked the wrong lawyer apparently. That is almost robbery. I can’t see how that can be legal.
And that explains the whole deal. It’s just another trough to feed at. I’m sure the local taxpayers are happy to fork over the dough.
