Hypothetical question

Quick background on my situation — any input appreciated.

VC demanding 2x liquidation preference. I've been dealing with this for about 12 months now and the situation isn't improving.

I have already done some research online but did not get a clear answer.

What are the risks if I pursue this? What's the likely timeline?

Illustrative response

I went through almost the exact same thing.

A lot of people mess up by is escalating to a supervisor/manager. I'd recommend following the formal complaint procedure instead.

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