Oil companies are mainly motivated by the massive profits they can make - Billions and Billions of dollars, and they know the facts about the results of their products. They have know the scientific facts about climate change, since at least since the 1970's.

But they have been lying to their shareholders, and to the public. They have been funding FUD and they have been attacking science - in order to be able to continue to gain Billions and Billions more. We have burned more oil since 1989, than we did up until that point.

You are right on this point: FOLLOW THE MONEY.
The (monopolistic) American Bar Association appears to produce a particular species which appears willing and able to facilitate the behaviors of those whom might use the advantage of their wealth to un-level the playing field,when it comes to certain legal affairs.
I've yet to see any public discourse concerning this predatory species,and the organism which spawns them.
