In a filing Tuesday, Aug. 20, the Gibson vs. NAR plaintiff attorneys—which includes the Burnett trial’s Michael Ketchmark—requested the court grant them one-third of the $110.6 million settlement pool (which equates to $36.8 million) as payment for their legal fees and work on the case.
So…let me get this straight. These attorneys want to be paid for a job they have/are doing?
Figure that out: Biden’s anti business Justice Dept and a bunch of ultra rich attorneys (who are charging 33% commission) have decided us agents are wrong for wanting to make 2-3% commission. Wow.
David, please educate yourself before throwing out remarks like these. These lawsuits started by sellers who felt that Realtors colluded to determine the commission. It’s not the government who decides the commission and it was never fixed. By the way, Realtora don’t get paid by hour, attorneys do. In fact, many Realtors never get paid, if the property doesn’t sell during the time of the contract and clients can choose the next agent without paying the 1st one what other professionals do you know who work for free? How you put Biden in this conversation is beyond me….
