Week 3 EOC

Erin said that because she suffers from dyslexia, she is unable to read and comprehend in a normal manner. In order to cope with her illness, she said that she has learned mostly everything in her life through memorization. This is how she remembered all of the Hinkley residents' cases

“A single mother, with no formal education, brought an American powerhouse crashing down to the tune of £229million”. Julia Roberts' push-up bra barely scratched the surface of the real Erin. She went though many divorces. Had more than one kid and was struggling when she got a job and started that case

I think it is somewhat fair. There are other factors you can put in. Did it go farther than just that little area? They did receive a good amount of money. It paid for everything. In all it was $229 million. Then Erin received a check for $2 million of it from her boss. The firm also got 40% of it.
“In the course of working on a pro-bono real estate case, Erin stumbles upon a series of questions that, when deftly investigated by her, ultimately result in over six hundred plaintiffs winning a $333 million lawsuit against the $30 billion corporate giant, Pacific Gas and Electric.” It is still the largest settlement ever paid in a class action lawsuit in the United States. That shows how uch she worked for the people that she started to represent.
