> Context: I am wondering if I should contact a VC firm about an ethics/business issue I am having with a company they fund.

What would they care? Unless it actively and massively damages the business (i.e. potential loss of investment), I'd imagine they couldn't care less. Maximizing their investment is all a VC cares about.

A lawsuit related to the brand name of a company, however, probably could limit their acquisition chances. So try to sell to them, instead of litigating. Even if you win, they might run out of money before you get your attorney fees compensated, and you could be out of pocket a lot of $$.
