But you as a PL have minimal co

your time,
mmor
travel,
expert witnesses, copying,
clerical-not
that much.
This
stacks the
odds in your favor. Every month costs them much more than you.
The
actual payout may be covered by insurance, but defendants'
defense costs aren't unless they allow their insurance firm to run
their defense, which means giving up
control-u
sually meaning
lousy legal work. So simply by moving forward every month, you
put increased pressure on the defendant, motivating them
to
pay
you to go away since they didn't get that message at first. You want
to ask
to
be paid to go away immediately, then again after the judge
refuses the defendant's request for dismissal, and then about every
four months right up until the end.
If the defendant does go all the way through the trial, it means
they either are confident they did nothing, are tough, or, in ways you
as PL may
not
understand, consider themselves simply unable
to
settle. (We'll get to that later.) But if they prevail all the way through
the trial, you again ask for money, much less, or else you threaten to
appeal.
Ifthey won't pay you, then appeal.
That
will be another year,
easy, and you can keep asking to be paid to go away. From beginning
to end, you want to keep hitting them with body blows.
