What do you do if you already know what the approved salary is (because you have friends working there) but you have to deal with an HR lackey that's trying to save the company money?

edit: For more info- basically my current customer is hiring me for a management role. I have worked with them for the past 4 years on various projects and have primarily worked with people at the director/vp level. One of said directors called me last week and said "Hey, this person that we hate is leaving and you'd be the perfect fit for it". I had a 10 minute phone interview earlier this week and am expecting an offer literally any minute now. The only problem is that I'll be dealing with someone from corporate HR and not anyone I know. I have to negotiate salary, relo, and getting my health benefits to start immediately instead of in 90 days (my wife is having a baby).
