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

pro bono requirements for bar admission. I've been dealing with this for about 10 months now and the situation isn't improving.

I have already consulted briefly with a lawyer but did not get a clear answer.

Do I have a strong case? What should my next steps be?

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

Based on what you've described, you likely have a viable claim under the relevant statute. The standard is whether a reasonable person would find the conduct actionable.

Before taking legal action, consider sending a formal demand letter. In many cases, this alone resolves the issue.

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

Been there. Here's what I learned.

The biggest mistake people make in this situation is hiring an attorney to send the initial letter. I'd recommend being patient with the process instead.

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 dealt with this before.

In my case, it took about 1-3 months to resolve. The key was escalating to a supervisor/manager.

I've dealt with this before.

What worked for me was having everything documented. It took 3-6 months but was worth it.

This happened to me too. Have you tried filing a complaint with the relevant agency? In my case they investigated and it got resolved without needing a lawyer.

I've seen this play out several times in my field.

The biggest mistake people make in this situation is filing with the appropriate government agency. I'd recommend gathering evidence first instead.
