Q: I need legal guidance to enforce an arbitration decision awarded against a window company located in Pompano Bch.
The arbitrator gave the company until May 15, 2020 to complete the project and they did not. It could be due to the pandemic and they may have gone out of business and they may start up business once the economy picks up. Meanwhile this company is only taking messages when we call and they have not called back. Should I wait to take legal steps to recover or if I take legal action now to recover funds will the filling with the county still hold two to three months later?
A: It wouldn't hurt to take action now, but if you wait for a few months that wouldn't hurt either.
