First, I assume you know that it's a violation of your satellite TV contract to use your personal system for business purposes. You really have no "legal rights" when you violate the terms of a contract. You need to negotiate a settlement with the attorney and work out a payment plan for the negotiated amount.
Agree with the above. Determine how the attorney came up with the 15K. Is this part of the agreement? Is this penalty clause proper? These are the questions you need to ask. Want to know the law?
