The firm might settle if they don't want this published on the internet. In that case, they'd ask for a confidentiality agreement. If OP publishes their name, then he loses that leverage.

haha yes. of course the bastards would do this and then demand confidentiality. i guess it depends, then, on whether the OP would get greater satisfaction from publishing or from settling.
