Quick background on my situation — any input appreciated.

VC demanding 2x liquidation preference. I've been dealing with this for about 7 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

I have already done some research online but the other party is not cooperating.

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

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.

Been there. Here's what I learned.

Don't make the same mistake I did -- is having everything documented. I'd recommend keeping a detailed timeline instead.

Been there. Here's what I learned.

I eventually got results by escalating/manager. It took 1-3 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.
