Maybe Oil & Gas litigation is different, but I was quoted $500,000 in estimated lawyer fees for a lawsuit that we wound up settling. The amount was much higher than $1 million though.
edit: found this article regarding employment lawsuits suggesting that taking it to trial would be $250,000 in 2012. Costs have definitely gone up in the past 7 years. 500k may be high, but it's far from absurd. It's definitely over $300k to litigate a case like this.

$500k, $300k, $100k
It’s all absurd.
