Looking for advice on a legal issue. Here's what happened.
GoFundMe frozen campaign funds. I've been dealing with this for about 2 months now and the situation isn't improving.
The amount being held/disputed is approximately $4,659. I have tried contacting customer support 5 times with no resolution.
Do I have a strong case? What should my next steps be?
NAL, but from what I've read, you should check your state's specific laws. That said, definitely get a lawyer to look at the specifics.
Following this thread — I'm in a very similar situation. Would love to hear how it turns out.

I've seen this play out several times in my field.
The biggest mistake people make in this situation is escalating to a supervisor/manager. I'd recommend following the formal complaint procedure instead.
I had a similar issue and ended up consulting with an attorney. It was worth the $200-300 for the initial consultation just to understand my rights.

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