how can I get paid and what extent of the law can I enforce
KentuckyI am a subcontractor, I have been working with DLC Holdings, doing business as ServePro of Hardin and Larue counties. we have completed several Jobs for them and the jobs have been closed out and Cos (completion of service) forms have been signed by customers. we have attempted many time to get our money and the owner continues to hold our money for no reason. he owes us for several jobs in excess of 20000.00, I have signed authorization form and contracts with them and in their contract it is stated that if job is complete it is to be paid the following week after invoice is turned in. he is over 100+ days late and I have attempted many time to get paid and he blatantly refused to reply to any of my emails. I am getting very aggravated. what can I do

You should file liens on the jobs if they are within the time periods allowed. This will vary depending on the dollar amount and the type of property. Sadly, if they are not responding to you, you will likely need to file a lawsuit to collect, but a lien can help protect you if the GC is, or becomes, insolvent.
