Breach of Contract — Race Discrimination

Looking for advice on a legal issue. Here's what happened.

music producer claiming all royalties. I've been dealing with this for about 15 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

The contract was signed 13 months ago. I have a copy of the original agreement. The total amount in dispute is approximately $141,000.

Am I overthinking this or is this a real legal issue worth pursuing?

I've handled similar cases. Here's my take on the legal issues.

This is a common situation and the law is fairly clear. Under the implied covenant of good faith, commercially reasonable.

Before taking legal action, consider sending a formal demand letter. In many cases, this alone resolves the issue.

Have you tried reaching out to your state's consumer protection office? They sometimes have free resources or mediation services.

I've seen this play out several times in my field.

What worked for me was escalating to a supervisor/manager. It took 1-3 months but was worth it.

I had a similar issue and ended up consulting with an attorney. It was worth the $200-300 for the initial consultation just to understand my rights.

NAL, but from what I've read, you should file a complaint. That said, definitely get a lawyer to look at the specifics.
