Q: I paid for a commissioned art piece in Nov 2019 and have yet to receive the item.
I have reached out to the artist multiple times and his excuse is that it is almost finished. He also said that he does cancelled orders and won’t refund. I do not see that policy anywhere on his receipt or website. I spent a paycheck to have this item made and cannot afford to “throw it away”. I really need help with this issue. Any advice would be really helpful. Thank you.
A: Not sure why you've waited so long to pursue this, but speak immediately with a local attorney. Time is always of the essence in legal matters. [I litigate cases. Anything posted here must not be construed as legal advice, nor as grounds for forming an attorney-client relationship. You should seek an attorney for formal legal advice and representation.]
