I dealt with a pair of founders that prided on having grown their company without needing funding. Turned out they deliberately forced every freelancer and supplier into arbitration. Complained about the quality and just withheld payments. It always ended up in settling, which meant that in the end they paid less. Of course they had to find new ones every time but hey, the market is huge. Ended up settling too.
