So? They did the work. No one complains when you pay a plumber, or gasp an engineer. The lawyers can take some office chairs as well.

  The point is that if your potential earnings cap out at $10k there's a very good chance you're going to end up paying more in legal fees than you ever make in a settlement and leave yourself at a net loss.

    You don’t do it to make money. You do it to make them lose.

      I assure you most people do it to make money and the vast majority to at least not lose money. And they don’t even really lose anyway, it’s just a cost of doing business. Just spin up another company and get back to the call sheet.

      The cost of losing is small and the cost of restarting again is small. Meanwhile, the potential upside of even one call netting a sale is very large. I reckon two calls netting sales would have paid for this fine. We have hucksters abusing legitimate business structures. I think we need an “in good faith” escape clause for LLCs that captures folks that abuse them.
