The on-staff attorneys are a fixed cost. So they are only evaluating

Yes, you got my point; you're a moron.

Apparently, you didn't know that many companies have their own legal
departments with attorneys on salary. You must be very young. You don't
have

You prove your cluelessness with every post.

So, you think many companies DO NOT have their own legal departments with

You're missing the boat, Joe. Of course companies have legal
departments. Do you think their lawyers are sitting around waiting for
something to do? There is a ton of legal work to do in a big
corporation. Lawsuits are generally extra costs and outside firms are
hired for specific work in the local geographic area. Company I worked
for was spending a million dollars a month extra just to fight law suits
over a single product. Not a single case was lost but it still cost a
million a month extra for several years.
