It seems to be about a typical morning in a world where the capability to sue has been commoditized and automated to the point where everyone sues everyone else for every little rights violation all day long (nanolaw). This makes everyone a "lawyer." Tablet software makes settling the suits that matter trivial - just a tap a box to settle for a few cents or a few dollars. The father experiences this world as somewhat surreal, while it's normal for the daughter.

I read the entire thing and still don't know the context of which it was written. (fiction?)

Near-future sci-fi, it appears, with a (large) hint of social commentary.
Gotcha. Figured as much, but wasn't sure.
I like to say it isn’t sci-fi it doesn’t have social commentary or at least a warning from a possible future.
Within the next generation or so too, since the first notices were sent by postal mail.
Yes
