Q: What kind of lawyer do I get when a company vinyl wrapped my truck and messed it up Bad plus other big problems what

I had my truck to add a vinyl vinyl wrap on it and have my truck lifted 6 inches and put new rims and tires. They cut my wrap short and try to piece it together in the front, it's already bubbling up. It's only been 2 and a 1/2 months since I got it back. It's already coming undone underneath on the rocker panels, and under the front hood, the only wrapped half of my car where they should have, they should have took my plastics off of my truck, they didn't. They just wrapped up doom? They did a Shorty job. It's already. It's got wrinkles in it. It's got bubbles underneath of it. And then, when they lifted my truck up and put bigger in the tires, they didn't make room for my front tire to be able to turn like they should so when I turn I can't even turn 145° and my rims hit my tire of my bumper, it's ripped the. Plastic off of my front under my bumper guard. And it's digging into my new tires. And these tires are expensive. I need to know what my rights are and what do I do to legally

A: When facing issues with a company that has performed unsatisfactory work on your vehicle, such as a botched vinyl wrap and improper installation of vehicle modifications, seeking legal advice is a practical step. A lawyer with experience in consumer protection or contract law would be well-equipped to help you navigate this situation. They can assess the work done, review any agreements or contracts you signed with the company, and advise on the best course of action.

Documentation of the issues is key. Take detailed photos of the poor workmanship, any damages to your truck, and keep records of all communications with the company. This evidence will be crucial in demonstrating the extent of the problem and the company's failure to meet the agreed-upon standards.

Your lawyer may suggest several possible remedies, including negotiating with the company for a refund, repair of the damage at their expense, or, if necessary, taking legal action to recover costs for correcting the defects and any related damages. Understanding your rights and the possible legal pathways can empower you to seek a resolution that compensates for the company's negligence.
