| Jim, You seem to have led a charmed life that has never taken you down the
| yellow brick road to the Courthouse, especially the Federal Courthouse.
| Unfortunately for me I have gone down that road too many times. I have had
| 11 lawyers working on cases for me all at one time. You finally realize
how
| far you gone when lawyers take you into their office and question you
about
| legal procedures WITHOUT sending you a bill. In other words you have
become
| a resource for them. I mentioned (guessed) at a $25K retainer in other
posts
| as a starting point for legal fees. Now you have confirmed that as a valid
| number. I know this $25K sounds like a lot of money (and it is) but this
is
| really chump change for any scrap involving the Federal Court System,
| especially against an adversary that has its own internal legal force
(more
| or less). These guys can make a lot of work (and money for themselves) for
| the other side by filing motion after motion. Billing by the hour
generates
| cash for Brinks' attorneys but will erode your $25K retainer well before
| discovery is over, let alone trial. Depending on Brinks' appetite for
| escalating this it could be a lot more than $25K before appeals begin. It
is
| like that old car repair commercial. "You can pay me now or you can pay me
| later". You can try an end run and file for Federal Bankruptcy protection
| PRIOR to any judgments being entered against you. By going into Bankruptcy
| you will receive protection from the court from any litigation efforts of
| Brinks against you. In fact if you hire a real bastard bankruptcy attorney
| he can actually get Brinks' attorneys tossed into jail themselves when
they
| continue to hassle you (which they will try to do because that is how they
| bill Brinks for their services). If you file Chapter 11 or 13 you could so
| foul up Brinks plans for you that they'll want to reach some other
| "accommodation" with you and the Bankruptcy Court. Once you have that
| "accommodation" in hand you can postpone and eventually dismiss your own
| Bankruptcy almost as if it never happened. One needs to be VERY careful in
| this strategy since you could go to jail yourself for using the
inadvertent
| consequences of filing Bankruptcy as a legal defense strategy. However a
| pissed off attorney with plenty of years of experience in Bankruptcy (and
| plenty of free liquor) can be a gold mine as to how to pursue these guys
via
| the legal back door for cheap. Brinks knows full well the legal techniques
| for derailing their plans for you. Making the right legal moves will
signal
| to Brinks that you know too, and the party will be over for Brinks. Brinks
| attorneys' aren't out to win so much as they're out to bill. When you take
| the cash away from an attorney you take everything away. There are two
| things that are simply poison for an attorney. One is no cash (that is
like
| the garlic for a vampire) and the other is they HATE to lose (that is the
| stake through the heart for the vampire). Bankruptcy means they can't get
| money (because they can't bill for attacking you anymore), and they can't
| win (because they can't attack you anymore). It is like removing AC and
| battery from an alarm system. They'll move on to figure their next payday
| strategy for fleecing their own client (Brinks) with some other trumped up
| legal BS. Attorneys are easy to defeat once you figure out the technique
for
| cutting off funds, or their access to funds, and making victory impossible
| to obtain or (worse) even define. They will never stick to any case based
on
| "principles" (they simply have none), or for being "in it" for the client.
| Looking for an attorney that sides with you and takes the case based on
its
| merits is like looking for a virgin in a whorehouse. Its fruitless of
| course, and only an entertaining search only if you like attorneys or
| whores, both in the business of screwing people for (and out of) money,
and
| each using the exact same moral code. You might hear some type of BS "good
| guy" rhetoric from time to time from an attorney, but that would really be
a
| smokescreen for hiding the fact that they have been had (financially) and
| the court WON'T let them off the case they accepted. A real attorney would
| never dispute what I have said here (mostly because there is no money to
be
| made by doing so) but also because it is so easy to list names, dates,
| times, places, faces, and cases to support what I have said. Think of what
| you have to do to win with the resources you have at hand. You'll never
win
| if you fight on Brinks terms, and on Brinks turf, using only your own
| efforts.
