Agree
If there was a signed lease it would have been a slam dunk and very minimal attorney cost for the OP.
But he most definitely would have been made out to be the "bad guy" and you never know what an irrational woman would try to do.
Personally, I probably wouldn't have settled that cheaply. Unless he was paying a top of the market rent that is borderline insane with $4 corn.
People like to throw out the threat of court/lawsuit/lawyer when they usually don’t have a clue what it would cost themselves to carry through with their losing proposition.
They’d have cost themselves a lot more in attorney fees than the defendant.
And their lawyer likely would have told them to stand down anyway.
