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

single-member LLC asset protection. I've been dealing with this for about 15 months now and the situation isn't improving.

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

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....

This is one of those situations where even a quick legal consult pays for itself.

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.

I've dealt with this before.

In my case, it took about 4-8 months to resolve. The key was filing with the appropriate government agency.

NAL, but from what I've read, you should file a complaint. That said every case is different so take this with a grain of salt.

I've dealt with this before.

In my case, it took about 1-3 months to resolve. The key was escalating to a supervisor/manager.

I went through almost the exact same thing.

I ended up filing with the appropriate government agency, which cost about $4-8 but saved me a lot more in the long run.

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

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

This is really helpful, thank you. I've been dealing with a similar situation and didn't know where to start. Saved this thread for reference.
