Denny,
Good karma will be with you always for what you've done. Good thing that you have been careful and kept all invoices, receipts, promises on file. Nowadays, it's pretty standard not to take anyone's word for granted, which is also sad. Used to be that your word is your bond, and a hand shake means something. Good luck, and I hope that the guys gets what he deserves. Lenny.

I would start your own company, as in an actual company. sounds like you have 4 or more real good references right now, you got the photos to put together a porfollio. you can hire and train a helper so he to does it the right way and when you are comfterable with him you can make him a lead and hire two new helpers and so on and soon you will be running your own crews. I find a lot of people will pay a little more to make sure the job is done right, especialy in these days when there are so many crooks out there.

Yes, and you can get these first 3 customers to write up reviews for you as testimonials.

Same thing happened to me $4700 because the home owner didnt agree with the bill. alwasy sign contracts if possible. I place a building lean on the house, and 2 years went but until the lean expired, she said she would give me $1000... No way was I settling for that, long story short with the lean expired and her now off the hook, the only thing to do was file a claim, and wait another 6 months- a year to even get into court to settle it, plus head ache from dealing with it, lost hours at work, lawyer fees etc.. What ever Karma is a bitch and she'll get what she deserves at some point. You ex boss will too, what goes around comes around. it still sucks that it happens but thats just how greedy some people are. thats why its good that there are still the few of us that are honest people. thats a value seldom come by now a days.
