Jeff:

Does your state have such a law? If yes you may want to learn
about it. It is a law specifically in California to deal with
people not paying the contractor or the mechanic after the job
is completed. There are so many disputes on the daily basis.
The law is required to deal with the problem quickly.

You can bring the customer to court and win without a lawyer.
The law is there and the judge will quickly reward you provided
by the law. But of course if the work is not done as promised
then it is a different matter.

By the way, the law makes every consumer, especially me, to worry
about the quality of contractors. There is no way I can refuse to pay
regardless I am satisfied or not with the job. However, as a result
my contractor for the roof work did not have to ask for a deposit
because the protection the laws provided him.

Believe me I think the law is wrong. It is for you not for me.

David
