Well if the law firm pay 20 cents check after making millions, what's the point.
I got like $50 from an Apple settlement a month or two ago
In 2012? 2013? Not sure exactly when, but i got two 4 packs of red bull because it does in fact, not, give you wings.
The point is that the company being sued has to pay those millions in the first place. The law firm does pay itself rather well for that work, but I'd consider class actions to be one of the more defensible legal actions.
