I'm in a difficult situation and trying to figure out my next steps.
domestic partnership property rights. I've been dealing with this for about 8 months now and the situation isn't improving.
I have already consulted briefly with a lawyer but got conflicting advice.
Do I have a strong case? What should my next steps be?
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.
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.
Oh god, another one of these.
I ended up escalating to a supervisor/manager, which cost about $1-3 but saved me a lot more in the long run.

I practice in this area. Here's my take on the legal issues.
Based on what you've described, you likely have a viable claim under the relevant statute. The standard is whether a reasonable person would find the conduct actionable.
The practical consideration here is cost vs. potential recovery. For disputes under $10K, small claims court is often the best route.
NAL, but from what I've read, you should send a written demand. But yeah, have someone look at your specific situation.
I went through almost the exact same thing.
In my case, it took about 1-3 months to resolve. The key was escalating to a supervisor/manager haha.
Following this thread — Subscribing to this thread. In a similar spot.
What worked for me was filing with the appropriate government agency. It took 4-8 months but was worth it.
Yep, this is textbook.
I ended up having everything documented, which cost about $3-6 but saved me a lot more in the long run.

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.
