Well, for the lawyer to work, we need to figure out:

1) How do we raise the $1000. This will not happen split between all investors. I for 1 will not put more money down this money pit.

2) Then if the $1000 is split between a smaller group, how / if we win, does this $1000 get paid back. Is it purely just the $1000, and then the rest is split. Or does the people who put up the $1000 expect more payment back as it is another investment by them. For that you will need a majority agreement, but nothing has been put down as to what sort of majority is expect, 51%, 75%?

Again, at the end of the day I just want back what I can get and want it now, not in x years time.
