Vetting the client in advance is critical.  Equally important is to make sure their payment clears and come from legal sources.  Never agree to do anything illegal.  (more) Vetting the client in advance is critical.  Equally important is to make sure their payment clears and come from legal sources.  Never agree to do anything illegal.

(more) Sellers of very high priced homes have room and ability to negotiate broker fees but it is by no means a rule.  The holder of an expensive residential property, listed but not selling, should be thoughtful about negotiating a broker's fee.  The best brokers simply need not negotiate precisely because they are effective and a party truly interested in selling should not build in disincentives for their sales agents.  It is no secret a broker will prioritize sales where they earn the most.

(more) Given the disruption to the travel agency model caused by the internet, it seems critical for you to be able to distinguish your services from what an individual can achieve on popular travel web sites.  Towards that end you should be sourcing special deals, discounts, amenities exclusive to the people you are booking travel.  Further a niche is often a great way of providing extra or unique guidance to particular travel destinations.  In any event, good luck, don't run out of money and happy trails.

When the court seeks the opinion of an expert, such as a licensed psychotherapist, their "expert" reports are critical if not decisive.  They may be countered with "expert" reports opposing their findings which often devolves, in legal parlance, to a "battle of the experts."  (more) When the court seeks the opinion of an expert, such as a licensed psychotherapist, their "expert" reports are critical if not decisive.  They may be countered with "expert" reports opposing their findings which often devolves, in legal parlance, to a "battle of the experts."

(more) My favorite type of success story begins with my representing a party in a legal matter against an opposing party (think commercial contract negotiation) and following the representation, having the opposing party (not the original client) seeking my services for future work (assuming no conflicts of interests of course).  The take away is that whatever services you provide or goods you manufacture, you never know who is watching....and in the best cases, the person who is sitting across the table from you respects and desires your services (or goods) for themselves.

(more) I would learn the reason why you are being sued and determine whether the amount being sought justifies use of an attorney.  Furthermore, during the call with your customer, I would inquire whether they would accept less than the amount they are seeking and if possible, try to convert an angry customer into one less dissatisfied.  The above is business advise.  If those suggestions are not feasible, then absolutely hire an attorney.
