In the class-action settlement with Deutsche Bank, the bank agreed to pay $75 million to resolve claims that it failed to act on red flags about Jeffrey Epstein’s alleged sex-trafficking while he was its client. The plaintiffs’ lawyers — including firms like Boies Schiller Flexner and Edwards Pottinger — filed a fee petition requesting 30 % of that settlement, which amounts to about $22.5 million in attorney fees. That percentage is consistent with common contingency fee arrangements in large class-action lawsuits.A federal judge in the case acknowledged the lawyers had done significant work but also described a 30 % fee as comparatively high under the circumstances, prompting extra scrutiny before final approval. The judge ultimately approved a 30 % fee award for the legal team representing the survivors as part of finalizing the settlement.to contact me:[email protected] a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
