The unfounded changes were made by defendant while plaintiff was in the middle of the contracted job, and made so that defendant could further enrich himself at plaintiff's expense.

It definitely helps your case to send a demand letter with an itemized bill. If you are in the contracting business you should have a lawyer on retainer.

My son bought a Jeep and his girlfriend took it and is trying to sell it. She is just the cosigner.
If the girlfriend is only the co-signor that means she signed the note (she is legally responsible to the finance company for the car payments).If she is not in the title itself it means that she does not have an ownership interest in the vehicle. If that is the case, she cannot sell the vehicle.... Read more »

I guess your question is whether you have recourse for that. Legally speaking you have right to reasonable compensation for your work and expenses spent on material and related activities. You can talk to the home-owner because home-owner is the ultimate employer and can override the decision if he... Read more »

My condo was flood in December 2019. Kitchen was destroyed. After 3 months finally got insurance money to fix home. Hired a contractor in March. Agreed on price and put down 50% to get job started. He said he will let me know start date. After almost three more months of waiting he says July 13... Read more »
Sure, but not before the contractor has caused some actual damages. Spending too much time to complete a construction job is not actionable. Moreover, no that the work has started the contractor can put a mechanics lien against you house that must be paid someday, or you will not be able to sell it.
6 years ago, I broke a lease. My roommate and I were both on the lease. The apartment company came after me with the full amount. I paid half. The full amount was still listed in my credit report.

A Florida attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for two weeks. It looks like you already have good legal insight into your matter, and it looks like you essentially hit the relevant practice areas of law you need. An experienced collections defense attorney should know what to do... Read more »
You need to be more specific. I suggest you re-post. A lease in which both you and he are tenants? - or with him as the only tenant, but allowing you to live with him? Or sub-letting to you? Or with you as landlord, him as tenant? And you mean refusing to pay, but continuing to live with... Read more »

Here is a copy of the letter I wrote to my child’s school, but I don’t know the statute reference number to add to my signature to make it legal/binding and guaranteed to follow as directed. Will you please advise?
To Whom it May Concern,
Following is a subsequent list of... Read more »
Adding a citation to a statute won't make it more "binding" than it would be without such citation. But to make sure they follow it, you might ask the school if they have a form they require, and then use that form.
Behalf can I keep the money they gave me if they didn’t contact me until later
It depends upon the terms of the contract.
I recently got a cat from a pet rescue. When adopting the cat I had to fill out a lengthy adoption contract. A few parts concerned me and I was hoping someone could provide clarification.
"1: I understand that I am not PURCHASING a pet but ADOPTING and SAVING THE LIFE of a homeless... Read more »
You're confused by the language "not purchasing", and I can understand your confusion. From your brief description, it appears the intent of the agreement is that the pet is not being sold to you, but rather is given to you as a GIFT. It calls the adoption fee a... Read more »

Yes, depending upon the specific language in the written lease. Hire a lawyer to advise you.
us there is a lawsuit against the builder for damage to the outside of all the units stucco was done wrong can I cancel and get my deposit back under the casualty and condemnation clause thank you
No, you stand to gain by the lawsuit, so what's the problem? In any event, it's neither a casualty or a condemnation. But to be sure, have an attorney review the details to be sure.
No. However, many people are having to do that these days--because of the pandemic.
My lease end date is for July 5th. I sent a notice on June 5th as we were not sure if the Covid cases will continue to increase/ decrease before our move out date. I have moved out of the apartments last week. Is it possible to fight the system as I don't think I can manage 2 rent payments at... Read more »
No lawyer can solve a problem that has not happened. So if you are still planning to move on July 5, you will need to wait to see what the landlord is going to do after you move out An option would be to stay put, and then see what happens. That will make you a 30 day tenant not encumbered by any... Read more »
