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

option pool shuffle diluting founders. I've been dealing with this for about 5 months now and the situation isn't improving.

I have already done some research online but got conflicting advice.

Has anyone been through something similar? What worked for you?

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

You could try handling it yourself but honestly a lawyer speeds things up 10x.

I specialize in this area of law. Here's my take on the legal issues.

There are several legal theories that could apply here. The strongest is probably the relevant statute, which requires showing actionable.

The practical consideration here is cost vs. potential recovery. For disputes under $10K, small claims court is often the best route.
