Has anyone dealt with something like this? I'm not sure what my options are.

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

I have already tried to resolve this directly but did not get a clear answer.

What are my legal options here? Is it worth pursuing?

Been there. Here's what I learned.

What worked for me was having everything documented. It took 3-6 months but was worth it.

Update: successfully resolved my dispute through arbitration. Total time from filing to award was about 4 months. The arbitrator awarded me the full amount plus attorney fees because the contract had a prevailing party clause. Always check if your contract has fee-shifting provisions.

The key lesson I learned from my experience: DOCUMENT EVERYTHING. Screenshots, emails, certified letters, photos — all timestamped. When it came time to prove my case, having a clear paper trail made all the difference.
