It is better for plaintiff's to settle than to go to trial; it is much better for defendants to settle than to go to trial. I'd say that this is pretty consistent with the way most trial lawyers think, for a number of reasons. The economic analysis is interesting-- I'd like to see more studies like that. Bottom line: lawsuits are expensive ways of placing your economic decisions into the hands of people who don't care as much as you do.
