      Many of your typical contingency aren't touching this. So you have to have funds up front.

            Money. My company has Billions to spend, I must weight how much I can stand to lose. If the case involves Government then it's even worse. They create money from thin air and will never run out.

            If I get fired then I'll lawyer up. If I'm "laid off" due to covid they'll probably offer 6 months severance - but to get the money I'll need to agree not to sue.

                I have a friend who is a attorney, and without case precedents, fighting this crap is a pure waste of resources.

                        This!

                        Plus... Hate to break it to the OP but most attorneys talk a good game when you are trying to hire them and they are happy to cash your checks but unless you have someone with a track record of winning these cases you are gambling with your time and money. They are not all created equal.

                        P.S. Your text to talk, or whatever you are using, is still garbage. Your posts read like those spam phising emails I get trying to trick me in clicking on some scam link. I've commented on it before but haven't seen you respond. I think you are a bot.

                          Why is Tiny allowed to keep opening new accounts after his old one was banned? The garbled TTS is a tiny hallmark, BTW.

                            Even if I had the money, which I don't, I ain't got that much time left on this old globe. It takes a lot of money, a bank of attorneys, and years.

                            Just look how long firearm cases take or any law suit for that matter.

                              This lady did



                              How she'll win:
                              - She's a female (and females are never, ever wrong)
                              - She's a person "of color" (and they are always taken advantage of)

                              That little list is tongue-in-cheek. I hope she prevails.
