We have been working as a sub-subcontractor with a construction company since last November. We had not done any commercial work prior to starting work here, but the person in charge of the projects assured us it was similar to the residential work we were used to, and they would answer all questions along the way. In March of this year, we still had crews working on the first project. The subcontractor was getting near their deadline due to delays in material or errors on what they ordered. As the deadline approached, we still had to install insulation on several pipes. The material they ordered was incorrect, so the crews let our supervisors know. The supervisors let the person in charge of the project, Mike, know. He said they could not afford to go over their deadline, so to proceed with installing the insulation that had been provided. Since it was incorrect, it did not fit. Our supervisors let Mike know we could not proceed, because it would not fit. He asked us to send crew members to pick up metal bars to push the pipes aside and install the insulation that was provided anyway. Our supervisors told him if we had to go through all of that it was clearly not going to end well. Mike said to proceed anyway and if anything happened it would be his responsibility. The crews completed the work, and when inspections came, they failed. Mike’s business partner wanted us to pay half the cost of what they had to pay someone else to fix it, but we said no since we had been telling them it was wrong. We continued to work with them on other projects. As of two weeks ago, they had not paid us for any of the work we had completed since March. We went to an attorney in Texas and explained the situation. He sent a letter requesting payment and explaining we would be willing to go to court if we did not receive payment. They sent a letter back saying they would not pay because of the insulation that was wrong. Since our relationship has been with Mike over the past months, he told us they will also sue us for half of what they had to pay the company to correct the insulation. He does agree that the insulation was his mistake and we should not be responsible, but his business partner is the one that does not agree....Read More

I was a tenant with a lease with the option to buy contract with the original owner of a property which was sold to a 3rd party at a franklin County Ohio sheriff sale without my knowledge after I had completed renovations of the property. I filed liens against the original owner, the foreclosing bank, and the 3rd party sheriff sale buyer. I was sued by the 3rd party buyer for fraud, based on the standard language/statement on the lien affidavit that I had a contract with the 3rd party. I lost on the summary judgement pleadings, on the fraud claim. Should I appeal the ruling? ...Read More

Cars, vans and trucks involved in a new building construction on my block are constantly blocking my private driveway. Today a large van was actually IN my driveway while unloading equipment. I have made several complaints to the deleveloper and management company (who are one in the same) about this problem. No one replies and the problem continues. What can I do? If I need an attorney does the developer have to pay for my attorney? ...Read More

Hi there, I'd love help on a construction matter - happy to engage a lawyer and would like help asap on this. Can I stop a job and refuse to pay if the work has not been performed to professional standards? I own a home and contracted with Interlock roofing to remove existing roof and replace with a metal roof. We've paid a $25k deposit - and I want to stop the job and get that deposit back, and move on to another team. The on-site team has worked without safety gear (fall protection), have damaged our property and neighbor's property, and is not providing photos of the work to verify the work meets their professional standards. I have no confidence that this job is getting done to professional standards, and it feels like a big risk to allow them to keep going. ...Read More
