Not gonna lie, i've been trying to resolve this on my own but I'm stuck fwiw.

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'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 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.

Reminder that many states have free or low-cost dispute resolution programs run by the state court system. In California, check your county's ADR program — mediation is often available for free or under $200. Much faster than litigation.
