    Maybe, but lawyers are a lot more selective about what cases they are willing to take on contingency, versus being paid upfront. Reddit engineers can make over $300k/year so it’s not hard to believe this employee is funding it themselves. And there’s also the possibility they have a new job that provides them with a legal benefits plan (like metlife: https://www.metlife.com/insurance/legal-plans/) which might cover legal costs.
