A comment on DoorDash to pay $5m to settle class-action lawsuit over independent contractors. Parent comment
Hourly rates for top lawyers can be as high as $1250 (https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB10001424052748704071304576160...), and they can bill up to 2000 hours a year. So if they have 100% utilization they can clear $2,500,000.
Liss-Riordan is at the top of her game, and fighting the good fight. We should support her.
