That's SOP when filing a lawsuit - allege everything against everybody. It's relatively easy to drop something out of the suit once filed, much harder to add if it turns out you missed someone or something.
Maninthebar - yes I've known and dealt with a number of lawyers over the years. A few came across as fine, outstanding people and good lawyers, I wish I could say they were in the majority. But I can't - far too many were at the opposite end of the spectrum.
