1. let the domains gowithout a fight
2. Invoice the Accounting firm (without hope of getting paid). Cite a 
serious accounting oversite and offer a 6 month payment plan with no 
interest.
3. Post your original email over your desk with theis Irish 
proverb -" Once shame on you. Twice shame on me." 
4. In the future whenever anyone wants a favor - see number 3.
