Erin Brockovich gives a very black and white look on how the
legal game is played and how it is easily manipulated with to force a outcome. Lawyers
like take things like sympathy and are able to either reverse or use it to their
own advantage. They twist facts in their favor to get the disarm conclusion to receive
the hefty fine at the end of the cycle which is the legal system as a whole. We embrace the help of these highly educated
people but for what service is the large lump sum of a settlement worth to
where in a lot of cases it’s not even worth it. Then in all reality, there are
the big corporations that you fight against in this which have a literal army
of lawyers at their beck and call to drag out the processes if need be or
strong or strong arm some with the fear of the weight the person their suing
holds. In the movie they built a case and was able to acquire 333 million dollars(http://www.brockovich.com/mystory.html)
for the 600 residents but the held the 40 percent of the profits that totaled 133200000
dollars for the firm.
