Simple war strategy: Divide and Conquer.
Divide the WTS lawyers up in single cases. So they can't put all their top dogs in one basket to defend. Spread their resources thin, weaken their attack. Hit them at different angles. A class action lawsuit thrown in won't hurt either.
Distract, Divert, Divide. Art of War - Sun Tzu.
One of the basic issues is that the victims, or in this case, Plaintiffs live in many different states, perhaps all 50 states. This may mean that the litigation be filed in Federal Court, not State Court. On what basis would a Federal Court hear the case? Is molestation a Federal crime? I think the way to determine the feasibility of this type of an action is: 1) Find a Law Firm that would take the case on a contingency basis. That means they get no money unless they win or there is a settlement. If they do win or settle, they get 30-40% of the money. This is a good incentive for a Lawyer. 2) Locate people that would wish to be part of the litigation. This could be done via a website, at least the initial contact. let the Lawyers take it from there.
