Even if you have top notch lawyers, what exactly can they do, when there is a clear rent contract and no payment?

Drag it out? Force you to have to hire a lawyer to get paid?

Point being, I don't think a top notch lawyer will win, but given the cost of litigation (plus the time value of money), expensive corporate lawyers can force small vendors to settle with a sizable discount.

Yeah, but how can you drag it out, if the case is that clear?

And wouldn't have the loosing party pay everything in such a case, making it a very expensive case for them?
