HomeWise Builders is handling a remodeling job for the Willis Property owners. The Willis Property is now unwilling to pay milestone payments per the signed agreement stating that they want more things done and wanting documentation showing where monies have been applied, etc. They are contesting change orders that were requested by them and are not willing to pay pricing given for work completed. We have subcontractors that are not able to be paid due to their unwillingness to pay invoice(s) released. Notified early this week that they are making amendments to the original contract in order to pay. Need assistance in figuring out next steps - can we stop work moving forward and push that they need to pay for work completed?
Your next steps will depend upon the terms of your contract currently in place and the specific circumstances of the job (for example, the contested change orders). Your best bet is to consult with an attorney who can review the contract and the facts at issue and advise you on how to proceed.
If you would like to setup a consultation, please let us know.
