Rights you have to pay to enforce aren’t guaranteed unless you can pay for them. I’m glad there’s a way to get lawyers paid to enforce peoples rights. What about all the cases lawyers choose not to take? The profession as a whole, or at least the part in your vicinity, decides if you get justice.

Zero (0) of Epstein's victims had the ability to self-fund litigation against Epstein or anyone like him. The only way they had any chance is through contingency fee representation. Everyone in Big Law knows that, they sneer at it anyway because they know it's morally superior to their work.

Not the main point, but this is a real window into the elite law bias against contingency fees, which is the only way most non-rich people can get lawyers in civil matters. Particularly galling from Ruemmler, who decided the best thing to do after serving in the White House was to sell out
