just my opinion, but you should consider the insurance side of it again, send it through and start getting quotes from other agencies (they' re a dime a dozen) if ya get approved great if not at least ya tried.... and you can always drop them and resign with another agency b4 you get dropped... never know you might just get lucky and get at least some reimbursement for your loss... just a thought.
Can' t stand a thief and I feel your loss. best of luck getting some retribution
