   Remember civil suits in the US aren't about right or wrong, but about   
   persuasion. Can you persuade the jury/judge not to find against you?   
      
   Also fighting a court case is long-winded, expensive and completely outside   
   of your control.   
      
   Paying off frivolous lawsuits is a running cost of large business in the   
   US.
