Has anyone dealt with something like this? I'm not sure what my options are.

converting LLC to C-Corp for funding. I've been dealing with this for about 7 months now and the situation isn't improving.

I have already done some research online but did not get a clear answer.

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

Been there. Here's what I learned.

What worked for me was hiring an attorney to send the initial letter. It took 2-4 months but was worth it.

Not a lawyer, but I have direct experience with this.

I ended up filing with the appropriate government agency, which cost about $4-8 but saved me a lot more in the long run.

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

I work in this industry and unfortunately this is very common. The good news is that when people actually push back with legal representation, companies usually settle.

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

The legal framework here involves both federal and state law. At the federal level, the relevant statute. Your state may provide additional protections.

One important thing — there are strict deadlines for filing these claims. Don't wait too long.

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

I ended up having everything documented, which cost about $3-6 but saved me a lot more in the long run.

The biggest mistake people make in this situation is escalating to a supervisor/manager. I'd recommend following the formal complaint procedure instead.

Just want to point out — the statute of limitations might be a factor here. In some states it's as short as 1-2 years. Don't sit on this too long.

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.
