I'm a 3rd party lien negotiator for a couple of law firms in CA. I use the same tactics when I'm negotiating liens and kindness does go a long way. Great advice.

You have the right approach to be a lawyer for many years. I know many lawyers that have health issues because they are always fighting the opposition. Thank you for sharing your strategy the world would be a better place if we had more kind humans.

Properly keep the case in it's proper perspective. Is this a catastrophic loss or is it a life altering? Or is it just a nuisance value case? Was it outrageous, like assault, ?video recorded ?
