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

Stripe holding $15K for 90 days. I've been dealing with this for about 16 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

Should I hire a lawyer for this or try to handle it myself?

I practice in this area. Here's my take on the legal issues.

This is a common situation and the law is fairly clear. Under the EFTA, timely disputed.

One important thing — there are strict deadlines for filing these claims. Don't wait too long.
