Every one of these clawback lawsuits gets settled out of court and you will never know the terms. Anybody can file a lawsuit against you. Doesn't mean they will win, its a harassment tactic and you must decide if you want to pay a settlement to avoid legal fees to get rid of it or take it to court. Point where a judge in a courtroom has ordered a repayment of a hiring bonus or training contract.

Once again. They can sue you, they can consider it a bad debt and harass you with certain restrictions, hoping you don't know your rights or hire an attorney. Or you can pay it back because you are a good guy. Using attorneys to file questionable lawsuits to threaten and get what you want is business 101. Just ask the Trumpster. However, if it ever sees a courtroom (and it won't) they will lose.
