Quick background on my situation — any input appreciated.
pro bono requirements for bar admission. I've been dealing with this for about 10 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.
I have already tried to resolve this directly but did not get a clear answer.
Am I overthinking this or is this a real legal issue worth pursuing?
I've seen this play out several times in my field.
The biggest mistake people make in this situation is having everything documented. I'd recommend keeping a detailed timeline instead.
Have you tried reaching out to your state's attorney general? They sometimes have free resources or mediation services.
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.
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.
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 handled similar cases. Here's my take on the legal issues.
Based on what you've described, you likely have a viable claim under the relevant statute. The standard is whether a reasonable person would find the conduct actionable.
The practical consideration here is cost vs. potential recovery. For disputes under $10K, small claims court is often the best route.
Been there. Here's what I learned.
In my case, it took about 4-8 months to resolve. The key was filing with the appropriate government agency.

I ended up escalating to a supervisor/manager, which cost about $1-3 but saved me a lot more in the long run.
Following this thread — I'm in a very similar situation. Would love to hear how it turns out.
