Answer:

risk aversion.

Explanation:

Have you ever heard "A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush"?

It relates to safe investments or activities that yield known returns, instead of simply trying to go after more birds that you might or might not catch.

Tom knows that he can sue the title company and earn a lot of money, but he also knows that he might lose the case and instead of getting some money will have to spend a lot of his money in legal fees. Since he dislikes the risk of losing both the suit and his own money, he decided to accept the company's settlement.
