Quick background on my situation — any input appreciated.
member expelled from LLC. I've been dealing with this for about 2 months now and the situation isn't improving.
I have already consulted briefly with a lawyer but the other party is not cooperating.
Should I hire a lawyer for this or try to handle it myself?
Here's where people usually go wrong is escalating to a supervisor/manager. I'd recommend following the formal complaint procedure instead.
Small claims court update: filed my case, hearing is in 6 weeks. The filing fee was only $75 and I don't need a lawyer. The court clerk was actually very helpful in explaining the process. If your claim is under $10K (or $12.5K in some states), small claims is the way to go.
Don't forget about state-specific requirements. They vary significantly.
