a court case has been filed against me and anothers store. for patent infringement. after contacting the lawyer, her client accepted a settelement for 150$. is it a good deal, or if i wait the judgment of the court will be better
A:
Dear Mr or Mrs,
you are not mentioning your jurisdiction (country) but I can say for my jurisdiction its 1000% better to settle case for simple 150$ out of the court than going through whole proceedings at the court. For instance the court fees could be much higher than the actual settlement cost.
If you need any further advice in the intellectual property, contact me anytime.
