Which lawyers? Clearly Chevron's lawyers were able to absolve all their liability so they definitely won.
Furthermore, Chevron extracted close to 30 billion dollars of petroleum and left an environmental disaster behind. Chevron even counter sued and was awarded an addition 3 billion in damages that was reduced to 220 million for Ecuador daring to try and hold a US corporation responsible.
Not only did Chevron prevail they continued the harassment of Steven keeping him under confinement for years and preventing him from practicing law.
