Hmmm. An epiphany...

I had an epiphany this evening while ironing for work at a profession I dislike:

I wonder if, in some negotiating conversations with an unrepresented possible defendant, the phrase, "Look. This is what my Client is offering. I'm telling you I think it's a good deal to settle this out... but, it's your decision, and it puts money in my pocket to go after the money in yours," would go over?

I'm thinking it would totally put someone on the defensive, but would LOVE to use it some day and have it work!
