We've been building houses together for five years. The last few months of been bad. The contractor were doing the job for pays me and then I pay him. We had a verbal agreement to split 50-50 he quit 75% to 80% done with the framing and expects me to pay him half of The framing. He called the contractor and said he was going to put a lien on the job. Do I have to pay him half of the framing. When you get a whole package you get better rates and the other part and now I'm stuck doing all that by myself and a few guys I can find. I've kept track of all the hours on the job of every person that worked there. After finishing the framing I had 60 more hours than he did. Another gentleman had 14. And another guy had eight We've never did anything with in writing. We've always just split everything now the contractor is going to give him this money and I don't think it's right
