I've been trying to resolve this on my own but I'm stuck.

eBay siding with buyer on false claim. I've been dealing with this for about 5 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

The amount being held/disputed is approximately $14,747. I have tried contacting customer support 9 times with no resolution.

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

I went through almost the exact same thing.

I ended up escalating to a supervisor/manager, which cost about $1-3 but saved me a lot more in the long run.
