Settle

Get this - Dog Bite Man wants to settle. He wants to pay me 50% of the bill. I am not sure what to do:

A)Take 50% and not go to court
B)Go to court and have the judge make him pay me 50% (which would be a waste of time)
C)Go to court & have the judge award me the full amount PLUS court fees, which could happen
D)Risk going to court and receiving $0 from him, to which I should've accepted his settlement

I will be discussing with my lawyer :-)
