EDIT: added more context below. I'm in a difficult situation and trying to figure out my next steps.

auto-renewal trapped me in 3-year deal. I've been dealing with this for about 10 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

The contract was signed 5 months ago. I have a copy of the original agreement. The total amount in dispute is approximately $103,000.

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

Attorney here. Here's my take on the legal issues.

The key question is whether the applicable statute of limitations has run. Depending on your jurisdiction believe it or not, you typically have common law contract principles years for this type of claim.

Might be worth talking to a local attorney about this.

I've dealt with this before.

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