The imminent threat of the pending lawsuit and the
potential damage to the fragile public reputation of Taco
Bell forced the company to settle the dispute quickly and
quietly. Mark Smith\'s legal representation was able to resolve the
issue without taking the company to court on his behalf. The
actions taken by Mark\'s legal representation were part of the
one- two punch. The knockout blow was delivered by media
becoming interested in the story and asking questions
directly of the client. In the end, thanks to a well
written contract, the most reasonable solution won the day.
