Scenario One
I am a sub-contractor working for a prime doing Information Technology work. I submit my time sheet every 30 days. However the prime informed us via phone within 3 days to obtain payment but payment took 10 days, is this acceptable?
Scenario Two
Sub-contractor creates a time sheet every 30 days, then Prime indicated two weeks after time sheet submission. Prime will pay the sub-contractor two weeks of pay (80 hours), and continue to pay sub-contractor every two weeks until contract expires? Seems prime is hold funds back for 30 days (160 hours), is this acceptable?...Read More

I'm a sub and was painting new construction for a gc. We had an arraignment on payment and when I asked to be paid for work completed pet our agreement he kept putting me off. So I stopped worrking until I received a check. When I did get check it was not the correct amount and he then told me I couldn't not show up for a month and then come back and finish. Then he refused to pay me the rest of what I was owed. So I sent him an intent to lien if no payment within 10 days . Now he is demanding I come and complete within 24 hours or he says I'm refusing. I still have not been correctly compensated. I told him I would come but I want a punch list and clear parameters on payment and amount and he refuses. Says I'm playing games. I feel he is trying to intimidate me. What are the legalities here with this and time frames....Read More

Customer has $20450 contract, and owes us $10571.09. We opted to no file a mechanics lien because we thought the customer would pay, but they didn't. Now we're in a situation where we can't file a lien. We could possibly try to get this settled in small claims court but not sure what the limits are, try to submit to a collections company but not sure what options we have. Customer isn't returned any calls or emails....Read More
I got a rural development sr. Grant/loan. Because the rural development field person didn't send out the contract that contractor to review until right before closing & contractor didn't like the terminology, he didn't sign. Through word of mouth a different & to busy contractor told me if another contractor . That contractor claimed he was licence & even provided a false license number. My phone was glitchy when I looked him up & I only say no enforcement actions. Through the after work inspection, it was found out that he wasn't a licenced contractor & the state appears to have pulled his registered status & won't allow him to make code corrections. My questioning is, does the states statues about warranty, right to repair with 30 day inspection & 15 day offer to repair still apply?...Read More
