too_tired_for_this_27 OP

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

should I go to law school. I've been dealing with this for about 10 months now and the situation isn't improving.

I have already done some research online but did not get a clear answer.

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

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.

I went through almost the exact same thing.

In my case, it took about 2-4 months to resolve. The key was hiring an attorney to send the initial letter.

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

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.

Not a lawyer, but I have direct experience with this.

Document everything going forward. You'll need it if this escalates.
