Do you intend to service them and create a win-win?  

Then if you happen to win the lottery someday, the plaintiff gets paid the outstanding judgement from the lottery winnings before you get paid whatever is left over.

They emphasize the water activity for the most part.

I can't emphasize local investor meetings over seminars enough.

If you can do all you can not to loose, the chances of winning increase substantially.I hope that helps...

Unfortunately, you are not their first victim, I doubt that you will be the last.It really emphasizes a couple points.

Therefore, it was a win-win situation.

If they have a lot on the line they will tend to give best efforts to make things  a win.  

If you have days where you know you will be out of town, write them down on the original filing papers. something like 'not available 7/3 - 7/10'.When you win the case, about 10 days later the court officer will contact you to see if you still want the warrant of removal served. 

There is a lot of information on this site so definitely look around and read from other investors' wins and losses to learn through their experience.The two realtors I've seen do the best are @Jordan Moorhead and @Sam Steadman .
