I am often hired in family disputes over estate matters. Often, these raise all sorts of old hurts and grievances.

I often advise them to push past that resistance and do what’s necessary to get the matter settled, including a less than sincere apology at times.
My clients sometime insist they won’t do it because it’s a matter of principle. I shrug and show them past legal bills and project likely future bills. I point out how much I respect people who take such firm positions of principle, because those folks do wonders for my revenue.
In most cases, this results in a slight adjustment of principle.
