How long does an ex employer have by law to release my 401K to me?

I used to work for a company that offered a 401K. I left the firm over 2 years ago. I have made three different attempts by two lawyers( which cost me $2000.00 )to send letters to my ex employer and had a investment firm request the forms as well. My ex employer will not comply to anyone. What do I do and where do I go from here?

These laws are subject to change . Consider that social security was initially voluntary and you may find insight as to where 401k is and where it is going.
