which of the two scenarios captures the most value for lawyers involved?

  Speaking as a lawyer, we’re not incentivized to advise a course of action whose primary purpose would be to line our own pockets. Doing so would cause us to lose trust in our clients and could possibly subject us to disciplinary action. We are expected to act in our clients’ best interest, not our own. I’m obviously not Boeing’s attorney, but given the industry they’re in and the amount of scrutiny they’re under, they don’t need their lawyers to fabricate situations that drive up their billables. They’re quite busy enough already.

    There must be someone somewhere that is incentivised to take course they are taking. If it's not the lawyers, who is it and what is their incentive?
