Other people are saying "get a lawyer" ... you're not going to need a lawyer, but multiple lawyers. One for you, one for the LLC, one for each of the shareholders, etc.
It's possible this situation sits right on the boundary of "costs too much to fix". That would suck.
I've been in similar sitations. I once spent a week calling up lawyers, getting no response. I took the hint.
In a different state, I got some very good free legal advice (about 5 minutes worth), which was "there isn't enough money at stake to persue this."
So good luck with the lawyer thing - it might work out.
If you can't get legal advice, consider filing a criminal complaint. Start with federal agencies. Personally, I'd start with the US Secret Service (forging shares), be prepared to be referred to another agency.
- iambateman 4y agoThis is helpful, thanks. That's the tough thing...The three of us collectively have six kids under the age of 5, and it's hard to think how much time and energy it will take to make a legal claim. One of the shareholder's wife works for a federal agency...I'll talk to him about the criminal idea...thanks for that!
- pyuser583 4y agoPursue the lawyer route too! Just make sure to ask “is it worth it?” It’s possible this can be cleared up quickly. His lawyer might say “stop breaking the law, and acknowledge they own the company.”
