Assuming she wins, the door opens for a class action suit, and the big winner is her attorney’s firm. Will they give her a “referral fee” for being the test dummy?
Referral fees are a way of doing business.
Yes, the attorneys will make the lion’s share, as they should if she wins because the article already says that she didn’t lose anything. The law firm will spends tons of money to prosecute their case so why shouldn’t the get that back if they win?
But I think the real winner here will be (1) the rule of law. We can’t live in a society where bribery and kickbacks are the norm; and (2) the American consumer, because without kickbacks, the best title company, not the one offering kickbacks, will get the business.
Bribery and kickbacks are already the norm. All one has to do is look at our politicians. Does the Louisiana Purchase or the Cornhusker kick back ring a bell on Obamacare? Does the Marsh Mc scandal of under the table kick backs some years ago on bid rigging also sound familiar. We, as a society are being scammed every day of the week by crooks who seek to go around the normal business practices.

We can agree on much of what you say.
