If you try to eat a 4lb burger because it will be free if you do, be sure you have the stomach for the side effects even if you are successful.

Last resort should be filing suit. Once you sue, all contact with you stops, the suit is stuck in the mud while the recipient(s) go through their process, the issue goes into priority la la land. Once things get set up they will request a friendly get together to settle things without a fight. They will come with nuclear weapons. On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being their priority, least cost to corporation is 10 and your satisfaction is 0. From that point the negotiations begin--they will drag that out. Remember it is all about billable hours and wearing you down, it never happens fast once it gets to suit and attorneys.

A decent sized corporation can drastically outspend you and, IF, you ever recover your attorney fees it will not be until all is long over. I don't see this as something an attorney will take on contingency, not enough potential, and if they do that means they take a significant share of any settlement, less expenses (which will initiate an OMG, OMG this can't be) from you. And, the corporate attorneys will cut their losses long before contingency is worthwhile.

And if you think this is bad just poke the corporate bear too hard. The bears share of corporate leaders or climbers have no or discarded empathy early on.

Certainly there is a time to file suit. I disagree you are there. I do think unless your BMW contact resolves this quickly you need to have advice from an attorney you trust as to what to do before you go deeper into the current black hole.
