What does it cost me? $50k or $60k? its not a big sum, i will burn it just to get him down for the rest of his career.
Sometimes, whether the agent would agree to resolve the matter privately, also depends on the circumstance he or she is under. Look at the war, not the battle.
To me, to settle it, at least he still got some brains... to fight it, he would be a complete idiot. Either way, he is going to lose, its a matter of now, or future business.
Anyway, this is talking about a civil suit. There is nothing criminal involve. If i can establish that i lose money becase of what he did previously, there is a case, as to how much i will get in award, or whether i woudl even win the case, it is not up to you or me.
But if his name gets flashed across the newspaper, he is definitely losing in someways.
