I just defaulted on a lawsuit because the plaintiff did not want to settle, and going through with litigation would have been prohibitively expensive for me (which the plaintiff knew). So now I'm awaiting judgement and terrified of what will happen. The plaintiff is very rich and he doesn't care about the costs, I'm likely going broke and be ruined. It is incredibly scary and frustrating dealing with the legal system when you don't have the money to do it and the other party has a lot of money. In this sense, there really is no justice, only an unfair legal system that works for those who have the resources to exploit it.
