I agree. And it balances out the survivorship bias of “I always get a lawyer.” I’m not sure of a good way to balance out and correct for my bias other than just trying to think critically for when I need and don’t need a lawyer.

Which type of error do you feel more comfortable making? One type of error is paying a lawyer when you didn't need one, in which case, you're out $X. The other type of error is not paying a lawyer when you did need one, in which case, you're out $Y. In my experience, the values here are frequently $Y >>> $X. In the end, the choice is yours; you rolls your dice and takes your chances.
