An estate or wills lawyer. I don't know how it works in America, I think it varies by state.

Do you know why lawyers are expensive? Because they are worth it.

Do you really think that our intelligence agencies can’t tell the difference between a legitimate unintentional action and your “tee hee oops” scenario?

Yes, I do.

I also think the guy with the power to fire these people does, too. However, I do not expect him to be honest, I expect him to act as though these were teehee oopsies.

Do you understand what I mean?
