The following are things you should know about litigation:

○ Third parties are often obligated to pay for your legal
   representation and may be required to settle any
   judgment or settlement on your behalf. Litigation attorneys
   know how to find these third parties.

○ There are many procedural protections which exist in the
   State and   Federal Courts and administrative tribunals. 
   In many cases, however, there are a number of
   conditions which must be satisfied in order to
   qualify for these protections.  These procedural protections
   often determine the outcome of the dispute.

○ Communication is of critical importance!  What you
   communicate either verbally or in writing will almost always
   have a substantial impact on the outcome of any dispute. 
   It is imperative to know what to do or say and what not to
   do or say.

○ "Litigating in your backyard" is often one of the most 
   overlooked strategies in successful litigation. Typically the
   party who litigates at home has a substantial advantage
   over those who are at a distance.  There are ways in which
   to set jurisdiction and venue without actually initiating
   hostilities.  This single strategy can have a great impact
   on the outcome of the litigation.

○ Trial attorneys are often more familiar with laws that impact
   litigation.
 
○ When are you better off with a bench trial as opposed to a
   jury?
 
○ What are the financial consequences of a judgment and
   how will it impact your business interests?

○ What judgment protections are available?

○ How to collect judgments or enforce Court orders?

○ How you can deal with claims or litigation where the sole
   motivation has been to harass or disrupt your business?
