Has anyone dealt with something like this? I'm not sure what my options are.

crypto exchange froze my withdrawal. I've been dealing with this for about 7 months now and the situation isn't improving.

The amount being held/disputed is approximately $33,386. I have tried contacting customer support 9 times with no resolution.

What's the typical outcome in situations like this?

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

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

I've dealt with this before.

What worked for me was filing with the appropriate government agency. It took 4-8 months but was worth it.
