I was wondering if a residential concrete company considered essential for the stay at home order
MaineIs roofing essential
MaineI have a client that is refusing to pay the last of the $1,000 she owes my painting and remodeling company. We had a contract, although I'm not 100% sure I can locate the signed version. We have several email communications however and very clear proof of the job/work done. Her son, also included in communications is the actual property owner. In any case, we also did $2000 worth of extras for her. We submitted an invoice, which she initially agreed to pay, and is now refusing. I am curious if I can ask for the entire $3,000 in the lien, or just the $1,000 from the contract. I am also wondering if this should be sent to her, or her son who is the property owner. They both live in the home. Right now I am trying to settle this without further action, but I have yet to hear back. Also, will I need to get a lawyer for this at some point or can this all be done by myself and levelset?

MaineDoes the contractor have to provide receipts as proof they were not paid and what about labor hours? How does one prove hours put in for labor?
MaineI am a home owner who paid an hourly laborer in full for all hours worked then told him I have no more work for him. His work was very shoddy, he padded his hours, took 5 smoke breaks an hour, was very pushy and even started to work on things I did not hire him to do. There is work to be completed, but due to budget I will be completing myself. And fixing all his screw ups. I paid him in full for all the hours he "worked". I do not have the money to pay him to do the rest of the work. So basically he has been laid off. He's now threatening a mechanic's lien. Can he do that?
MaineHow to recoup money
MaineWe provided carpentry services to a home owner who now refuses to pay. We have sent all the required demands for payment and intent to file the lien. Once we record the lien with the county, do we need to send a copy to the home owners mortgage company as well as the home owner or to just the home owner?
MaineI was hired to provide consulting services which we agreed on a rate per month. I began the engagement and received my first payment about 60 days into it. I continued to work for another few months with no payment. I repeatedly asked for payment and finally stopped working due to non-payment. I hired a collection agency about a month after my last interaction with the contractor. It has been almost a year since I last worked for them. The word on the street is that the contractor is on the ropes and probably won't be around much longer.
MaineTenant wanted to do upgrades in apartment. Homeowner said that was fine with him as long as tenant paid for the upgrades. work was done in two parts. Part A was compleated and paid for. Part B was compleated and tenant refused to pay stating "I am not going to pay you because i have spent the money on something else". I sent 3 certified letters about 30 days apart with offers to pay in installments. I received no response. This was two and a half years ago.
