Ive had three legal advice experiences - two with work and one personal. The employer ones were both straightforward about whether or not we should do something, and they did not encourage us to keep returning to them on the issue, and the personal one the guy gave me a 30 minute phone call, advised me that if I wanted to formally pursue the matter I would need to engage his services at £200/hour, however his unofficial legal advice was to just proceed and not bother. As another anecdote, my experience with developers is that developers will repeatedly tell you that the software isn't complete and requires extra attention to keep it running and to maintain it, and that it needs extra time for refactoring, despite it functioning correctly right now...
