So I hired a builder to build my home. I paid him his rate to oversee the job. As invoices came in from his different accounts such as lumber and different materials he had me pay his invoices. 5+ months ago we had a well installed. Our builder is now calling us to tell us that that invoice has not been paid. And actually as of today we have still not received an invoice. What are our options?...Read More

Client was difficult and rude throughout the construction process, so we did work clearly outside of scope just to keep the peace. We did the work, and I sent an invoice along with an email requesting just to discuss the change orders. That invoice, as well as our original contracted amount final invoice, have both been ignored. The change order email requested a discussion, and we were willing to negotiate where needed but they have gone radio silent and won't pay anything. Can I include the change order amount in my demand for payment or should I just stick to my original contracted COD amount?...Read More

We found out that the owner is losing to the property to taxes in two weeks and I was wondering how I would get paid.

The plumber I hired had a mitigation specialist come to my house to assess water damage and I signed documents for them to run a claim through my home insurance. Within 48 hours they wanted to demo my kitchen and bathroom before my claim was approved. I emailed company and called stating I wanted their equipment removed from my house and no longer wanted them to work on my home. I received a 20 day preliminary notice. I am in AZ. What does this mean? Should I be concerned that they have a lien on my house? I asked for a detailed invoice, but have not received it. The preliminary notice states $3000 for equipment and materials. What do I do?...Read More
