You have a case sounding in breach of contract and negligence.

I would begin with a final written demand with deadline and threat of lawsuit. This can help bring about a settlement, show the court good faith, and build a record.

You can escalate with attorney general complaint and civil suit, but typically the threat alone will lead to settlement.
