The reason I'm very against bringing a third party into the room to resolve a dispute, is because frightened people can be extremely dangerous. How is a provider to know if a client is armed or not? If you bring a man into the room to fight with the client, someone (the provider and/or her friend) might get a bullet in the ass, from the terrified client. It HAS happened before.
Or it could easily escalate into a physical altercation, where the client is hurt and the provider goes to jail for a long time. This has also happened before, many times.
The best way to handle this specific situation is to be aware and alert AT THE BEGINNING of the session. Collect and count your fee up front, put it away, look around for recording devices and ask that they be put away, etc.
Figuring out he was recording you after the session is over, or shorted you, or whatever... AFTER??? Why not take care of these things at the beginning, so you don't have to have an altercation after?
Defend yourself by using your brain, first and foremost. Intimidation and force should be a last resort only, and only in situations where it would be worth it if things took a turn for the worse, once the third person was brought into the situation.
Always,

I'm glad it's only a couple of weeks. You know how invaluable your services are to us ladies. I don't think she should be without it, being a new provider.
I understand that it was a minor dispute, but we weren't in the room. We don't know the size of this guy, and if she's anything like me, I wasn't leaving until the video was erased. Screw the 20 bucks. I would feel worse had I acquiesced and let him keep the video.
I agree, it could have gone a lot worse, but thank goodness it didn't.
Thank you for a gracious reply, Gina!
