And then you get the law suit because someone in a Wifi zone but without cell coverage couldn't call 911.

It's simple. Force it to go through the regular cellular network first, and if it doesn't exist (e.g. because you're on a WiFi-only tablet) or is unreachable then try to fall back to another app.
Most carriers have their own voip gateway already built into the carrier settings to handle this situation. No voip app needed.
