The after they file their answer their is something called discovery. This is when each side asks for documents from the opposing side. This takes a lot of time because the side that is asked to turn over documents will not give it up so easy and then you will have to go to court. This can take 2-3 years to get all of this sorted out.
You also have depositions & interrogatories. Interrogatories are written questions and the other side has 30 days to answer them.
By the time you go to court 2-3 years after you file then even if you win you still will not get paid. Their will be appeals. That will take anywhere from 3-5 years.
If Lensman has an attorney who is going to file suit right now he should fire his attorney. You might as well just wait to see what happens with Ibill. 2-3 months (if it takes that long) will not matter in the hole scheme of things.

You are dead on. It is not worth it to spend the money to sue. Just get your own merchant accounts so you have the control and move on.
