Janus Seagull had a car accident and was out of work for a year. Janus believes that the accident was caused by a vehicle defect. He consulted some lawyers and planned to sue the vehicle manufacturer. During negotiations, the legal team of the vehicle manufacturer offered a $700K settlement. However, Janus needs to settle the $100K in legal fees. Janus asked his lawyer for advice and the lawyer told him that he has a 50% chance of winning the case. If Janus loses, he will incur legal fees of $75K. If he wins, the full requested settlement is also not guaranteed. The lawyer believes that there is a 50% chance that Janus will receive full settlement of $3 million, of which Janus needs to settle $1 million in legal fees.
