Looking for advice on a legal issue. Here's what happened.

event venue cancellation policy dispute. I've been dealing with this for about 11 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

The contract was signed 11 months ago. I have a copy of the original agreement. The total amount in dispute is approximately $94,000.

Should I hire a lawyer for this or try to handle it myself?

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

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.

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

There are several legal theories that could apply here. The strongest is probably UCC Article 2, which requires showing a material breach.

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