First off, I have no respect for ambulance chasing attorneys, and it certainly appears the victim was one.

Most people with half a brain would never get involved with people like that. Sorry if the truth hurts, but the victim is partially to blame.

His Partner (Armand Assante) knew how to push the button. He dangled the carrot of ill gotten gains and the Lawyer jumped for it. Alas, it cost him his life.
