You do win if you can take a point or two for the consultant. 

I've read plenty of posts on here alone with folks challenging appraisers and "winning", not just some "landing on the moon" type of scenario like you're making it out to be.

ATTORNEYS' FEES: If any legal action or proceeding is brought by either party to enforce any part of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall recover, in addition to all other relief, reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs.An attorney looked over my lease and recommended that I cap the legal fees to $500 collectable, because even if you win, it usually is super difficult to collect from a tenant.But if a tenant wins, you're easy to collect on, and you could be out more than $500 for their attorney's fees.

Tenant wins the case.
