I do agree with eman that cash, cash, cash, capital, good cash flow is important to any business especially a start up business. That what they bank on when they try to tie you up in court.
Our attorney did work with us on financing the case which I did not mind him getting the money he got due to he earned it.
When we got sued after the company we worked for was bought out. They said we had a non compete agreement. We never had non compete agreements when we were with the company that was bought out. We were never employed by the present company that sued us. They did not come after until two years after the buyout when the company we formed started taking their business away.
It took about 2 years to settle the case.
They wanted to give us next to nothing to settle right away.
I figure if they wanted to try to tie up our capital we would tie up theirs then take it.
When the company that sued us finally was fixing to get bought out again they wanted to settle at any cost.
