my music producer claiming all royalties experience

I've been trying to resolve this on my own but I'm stuck.

music producer claiming all royalties. I've been dealing with this for about 12 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

The contract was signed 24 months ago. I have a copy of the original agreement. The total amount in dispute is approximately $34,000.

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

Been there. Here's what I learned.

In my case, it took about 2-4 months to resolve. The key was hiring an attorney to send the initial letter.

Following this thread — I could have written this post myself. Same exact problem no cap.

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

I went through almost the exact same thing.

The thing that gets people is having everything documented. I'd recommend keeping a detailed timeline instead.

This happened to me too. Have you tried filing a complaint with the relevant agency? In my case they investigated and it got resolved without needing a lawyer.

I've dealt with this before.

I ended up hiring an attorney to send the initial letter, which cost about $2-4 but saved me a lot more in the long run.
