Quick background on my situation in Florida — any input appreciated.

series LLC across state lines. I've been dealing with this for about 2 months now and the situation isn't improving.

I have already consulted briefly with a lawyer but got conflicting advice.

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

NAL, but from what I've read, you should check your state's specific laws. That said, definitely get a lawyer to look at the specifics.

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.

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.

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

I ended up having everything documented, which cost about $3-6 but saved me a lot more in the long run.

I specialize in this area of law. Here's my take on the legal issues.

This is a common situation and the law is fairly clear. Under the relevant statute, actionable.

I'd recommend documenting everything in writing from this point forward. Keep copies of all communications.

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.

The biggest mistake people make in this situation is filing with the appropriate government agency. I'd recommend gathering evidence first instead.

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.
