I'm in a difficult situation and trying to figure out my next steps.

bank won't reverse wire transfer. I've been dealing with this for about 4 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

The amount being held/disputed is approximately $19,514. I have tried contacting their legal department 9 times with no resolution.

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

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, state consumer protection laws. Your state may provide additional protections.

I'd recommend documenting everything in writing from this point forward. Keep copies of all communications.

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.

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