Did Lawyers Inflate Fees in Hot Coffee Class Action Suit?

Lawyers who filed a class-action lawsuit against Take-Two Interactive over the 2005 Hot Coffee scandal have put in a claim for $1,000,000 in legal fees. However, the total value of a settlement award to 2,676 claimaints in the case tallies less than $27,000. Here's how those awards break down:

* Tier 1 (up to $35.00) (no [GTA San Andreas disc] exchange required):
416
* Tier 2 (up to $17.50) (exchange required): 22
* Tier 3 ($10.00) (exchange required): 131
* Tier 4 ($5.00) (no exchange required): 2,050
* Disc Exchange w/o cash: 57
