I have clients who want to sue the bastards and destroy their lives. . . until they learn how much it will cost to sue the bastards and destroy their lives.

It means they have no idea what it takes to press a lawsuit, and they were just making an idle threat. Get them out of your life.

If you can come to an agreement without having to take legal action that's better than spending time and money on litigation. Everyone wants something. Try to negotiate first, and if that doesn't pan out then slam them with a lawsuit if your position is advantageous.

It means they realize they can't or it is not worthwhile. People are pretty stupid and think everything they don't like must be against the law. Seldom is.
