Need advice: small Claims Court for Payment: New Jersey

Looking for advice on a legal issue in New Jersey. Here's what happened.

bank won't reverse wire transfer. I've been dealing with this for about 7 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

The amount being held/disputed is approximately $18,364. I have tried contacting their legal department 5 times with no resolution.

Do I have a strong case? What should my next steps be?

Attorney here. Here's my take on the legal issues.

This is a common situation and the law is fairly clear. Under Regulation E, an unauthorized electronic fund transfer.

I'd at least do a free phone consult with someone. Can't hurt.

I went through almost teh exact same thing.

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

So basically have you tried reaching out to your state's consumer protection office? They sometimes have free resources or mediation services.

My buddy went through something identical.

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

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.

Been there. Here's what I learned.

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

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've dealt with this before.
