## Resource

In this episode of The Business Owner’s Counsel: Legal Issues from Growth to Exit, host Evan Mack sits down with Kevin Brick, founder of Brick Business Law, to discuss the intricacies of litigation for business owners. Kevin explains how litigation should be approached as a business decision, weighing costs, risks, and strategic benefits rather than just focusing on being right. They delve into common mistakes business owners make, such as emotional reactions and misjudging the strength of their cases. Kevin emphasizes the importance of early settlements to avoid escalating costs and the pitfalls of settling too late. He also highlights how opponents may use delay tactics and the significance of leverage in litigation. The episode provides valuable insights into crafting a strong litigation strategy, including setting clear objectives, understanding leverage points, and maintaining ongoing communication with legal counsel. Listeners will gain a deeper understanding of how to align litigation strategies with business goals and make informed decisions to protect their companies.
