Win the war. 
In the heat of the moment, it's easy to say: "Sue the bastards!"  Disputes, however, can be time-consuming and costly. They may impact reputation and relationships. Before taking action, take a deep breath. And consider the following factors to help win the war: 

  • Success. How likely are you to succeed?   

  • Cost. What will be the out-of-pocket cost of the dispute?

  • Time. How much time will the dispute require?

  • Return. What money or other benefit are you likely to receive as a result of the dispute? 

  • Precedent. What precedent, if any, is the dispute or resolution of the dispute likely to establish?   

  • Reputation. Will the dispute damage your reputation or your relationship with any client?  ​


Evaluate these factors. Avoid a battle that you not only don't have to fight, but that may do more harm than good. Win the war.
