They conceded. This is good. They are going to have so many problems if they don't change the policy, everyone will be taking them to court.Lori, I'm really happy to hear that.  I wonder if they've taken out the 3rd party collection clause or if they left it in and hope that all this just goes away.  LindyI'm glad they did the right thing.  It's too bad that it took bad press to get them to do the right thing.  I wonder if they would have done it on their own?

PhatsYesterday I heard they are being sued because they would not give back a cashiers job to a returning soldier. They are required by law to do so. Walmart sucks

Oh...already posted...

Still takes more than WalMart having a change of heart to impress me!! Why?

IF THEY HAD SIMPLY MADE THIS DECISION FROM THE GET-GO THE LAWYERS WOULDN'T HAVE RECEIVED 0,000.00 OF THIS WOMAN'S ORIGINAL SETTLEMENT.

The lawyers did their job but WALMART SHOULD REIMBURSE HER FOR THE 0,00.00 IN LAWYER'S FEES, TOO. With today's cost of nursing home care the remaining money won't last her a life-time.

Suppose the lawyers could have accepted her case pro-bono. Lawyers and law firms tend to be picky about the "big money cases" they choose. Unless, they are certain they can win they don't accept such high profile cases because to lose affects their reputation. There are times when "money isn't everything" for a lawyer or law firm.
Just think if the law firm were to refund her lawyer fees how this would positively affect her life and the reputation of the law firm.

We rarely see the media taking the lawyers to task. They love to attack Wal-Mart. The lawyers got more than half of her settlement. More than half-million. Life must be hard for them there legal beagles.
