The right lawyer will make all the difference. I had a dude try to sue me once for unmasking his spam email operation. After one telephone call from my attorney at one of the premier IP law firms in the world the dude dropped his suit.
They basically told him, "in the world of Internet law your law firm is T-ball and ours is the New York Yankees. If you want to play ball we're ready. If you think you're going to draw it out to bankrupt our client I should tell you the partners agreed to do this case pro bono to get some of our junior partners court experience. You can drag it out for a decade and it will cost our client nothing, and you will lose."
