really name one lawyer who will agree to pay 1,000 for every dollar they asked for if the person isn't actually guilty (fair use, authorized, or not really an infringement-- see honeypotting)

none of these lawyers believe they have enough proof yet, if they did they would have no problem agreeing to this

Whether this is the first or second step doesn't matter. They are suing you. Now you get to respond to that suit by either settling, defending yourself or contacting them and coming to some kind of an agreement with them.
it make a huge difference if you never collected enough evidence to establish guilt in YOUR ACTUAL FIRST STEP.
