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

wedding vendor no-show. I've been dealing with this for about 13 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 $16,000.

What are the risks if I pursue this? What's the likely timeline?

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.

I've dealt with this before.

What worked for me was hiring an attorney to send the initial letter. It took 2-4 months but was worth it.

I practice in this area. Here's my take on the legal issues.

The legal framework here involves both federal and state law. At the federal level, UCC Article 2. Your state may provide additional protections.

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.

In my case, it took about 2-4 months to resolve. The key was hiring an attorney to send the initial letter.

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

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 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.
