Except they still have the legal advantage of more moneys and lawyers. There is no easy win unless the judge intervenes before you pay lawyers too much.
- hbrav 5y agoTrue, but it still puts the work of filing etc. on them. You can always self-rep. It's usually not a good idea, but here your argument is really very simple: "I signed this NDA on the basis of specific assurances, which were false. I have a record of those assurances from [company lawyer]."
- celticninja 5y agoYou can also just string it out, and on the first day you are due in court say "ok here it is". You dont need to pay a lawyer anything, the company just has to prove that it is really committed to getting this info. To go as far as having a court date set and lawyers ready to turn up. Personally I would arrive at court to ensure they sent some actual lawyers and then if I couldn't argue my point happily hand it over at no expense to myself other than taking a day off to attend court.
