Re: Gotta love lawyers

Everything seems to be in order here to me, I don't see what all the fuss is about. The lawyers are being paid at a market rate for the services they have rendered; if they were being overpaid, that is to say if the value of the work being done was not commensurate with the fees being paid and it were possible to have the same work done to the same standard for a lower price elsewhere, the government would have found someone else.

As far as the families are concerned, they are recieving recognition that their relatives' work was indeed responsible for their early deaths. Financial payments will never compensate for the loss of a loved one anyway; is £500 really any more acceptable than £7.13?

So they're getting everything they can realistically expect. Everyone's a winner.


Especially the lawyers!
