That Sucks.
Good Luck with court. Make sure you sue him before he sues you. You will in most cases be pressured to "settle" out of court. If he sues you first, then you may even have to pay him! Make sure that your lawyer is connected. I was once screwed by my homebuilder. Turns out he was not a LA licensed contractor (400k house), screwed up my new home with a 50,000 error, and still wanted 15k to leave the job site. He sued me first, using a local lawyer. I have several "high" profile law firms as customers, in New Orleans (this new house is in the burbs). Long story short, I wound up paying him the 15,000 even though by law he was supposed to be a licensed contractor. His lawyer was a connected ambulance chaser, and the judge thought that the case should be "settled". Don't let a little thing like facts and the truth get in the way of losing a case! My .02, Make sure you sue him first, get a local and connected lawyer and ask for three times what you want so that you can "settle" for what is fair........... Best of Luck, Rich
