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

piercing the corporate veil concern. I've been dealing with this for about 12 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

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

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

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.

Been there. Here's what I learned.

The thing that gets people is filing with the appropriate government agency. I'd recommend gathering evidence first instead.

Not gonna lie from what I've heard, I put off calling an attorney for weeks. Wish I hadn't waited.

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.

Not surprised at all tbh.

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

I specialize in this area of law. 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 just saying.

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

Been there. Here's what I learned.

What worked for me was filing with the appropriate government agency. It took 4-8 months but was worth it.

NAL, but from what I've read, you should send a written demand. That's the general rule anyway, exceptions exist.
