It's really hard for me to feel sorry for any of the parties involved so the ethics feel weird.

I guess the law firm saved the shareholders from being fleeced and they want their cut. It's obscene, but still a small fraction of what Elon would've walked off with.

You’re touching on the difference between ethics and morals. Perfectly ethical, morally questionable.
