FloridaPayment Disputes

One side of my bathroom wall was wet due to the pipe leaking in the building. The condo Association fixed the leaking. Contracted SERVPRO to drying the wall. They said the wall needs to rebuilt. To do so, all vanities in the bathroom needed to be removed and restored (cost on homeowner) after wall is built (cost on Association) and painted (cost on homeowner). One change on me was replacing bathtub with a shower during restoration for total $8218.09 (Insurance reimbursed me max of police $5,000 for mitigation and restoration. $3218.09 is on me for replacing tub for shower) During the process, they took out my entire bathroom new “wooden” floor out without asking me and persuaded me to accept tile floor. I was living on their mercy once they took down the entire bathroom Project was “finished” on Feb. 2nd. I gave them a list of items along with images that were not restored correctly. One of them is a piece of wooden floor outside the bathroom was popping with cracks. They tried to fix the popping floor without success and more pieces of the wooden floor outside the bathroom are popping and poking. They admitted taking entire bathroom floor down was a mistake by word(xxx should never take entire floor off), phone (offer me $600 off), email (saying damage cannot be avoid because I didn’t pay enough to laid the original floor correctly) They added additional charge $1821.84 on the invoice for doing the works (taking down entire bathroom floor) that I didn’t ask and trying to fix the damages (floor outside the bathroom) caused by the works I didn’t ask them to do On Feb. 8th I paid total $8218.09, disputed the additional charge $1821.84 , turned down the offer of another estimate to take down the entire area of damaged floor for a fix The company sent me Notice of Intent to Lien As an individual consumer who has no power, leverage, or privilege but being a victim, threatened and bullied. I need a lawyer who has interest to protect a non-elite consumer
