First off, don't try litigating this by yourself. Do you want to crawl into the water with an alligator? Hire a lawyer and get that lawyer to send him a proposal for settlement which would give you the ability to try to recoup your attorneys' fees from that point forward if the verdict against you is less than 75% of the amount you offered. Proposals for Settlement are tricky, so make sure whatever lawyer you hire is comfortable working with Proposals for Settlement.
