none of these lawyers believe they have enough proof yet, if they did they would have no problem agreeing to this

Is this another of your dream scenarios like wanting people to put all of their content in the public domain in order to get you to prove that you sent an email?
Here is how many lawyers works. It is really very simple. IF they think they have enough evidence that they have a good shot at winning the case they will pursue it. Many cases don't really get going until they get into court and get into the discovery phases. Many cases don't have enough evidence that they can prove guilt before they step into a court room. They believe they have a good case and they use the system to help build that case.

it make a huge difference if you never collected enough evidence to establish guilt in YOUR ACTUAL FIRST STEP.

Again, semantics. As I state above most lawyers don't have a slam dunk case when they walk into the first hearing on case. They use the discovery phases to further develop their cases.
They clearly have done some research because, as I said above, they don't just pull your name out of a hat and randomly send you a letter. Somehow you ended up on their radar.
