I give a lot of advice, say a lot of things over and over. One of them is I tell the clients this is chess not checkers we got to think about a long – we’ve got to be five moves ahead. And sometimes it’s easy to make a reactionary move and not think about the long term consequences and so I tell them that. I also tell them pigs get fat and hogs get slaughtered we have to temper our request with what’s reasonable a likely outcome. I’ve had people refuse an offer and then later you can get less by not accepting a good deal when the time is right. So you need a lawyer to tell you what is that sweet spot to get the most you can without sabotaging your case.
