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

changing registered agent. I've been dealing with this for about 6 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

I have already consulted briefly with a lawyer but the other party is not cooperating.

Am I overthinking this or is this a real legal issue worth pursuing?

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

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.

Not a lawyer, but I have direct experience with this.

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

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

There are several legal theories that could apply here. The strongest is probably the relevant statute, which requires showing actionable.

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

I went through almost the exact same thing.

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

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

The biggest mistake people make in this situation is escalating to a supervisor/manager. I'd recommend following the formal complaint procedure instead.
