Worked with a executive upon a let skill of mine. We never had a stipulate upon what his hourly rate would be, alternative than written of about $20/ hour.
He worked for only underneath 4 weeks about 3-4 days a week as good as of varying hours. Certainly not full time.
We, however, do not have a sum hour breakdown.
He gave a check for $7,000. My meditative is he knew which there was a authorised case being filled opposite a former tenants as good as a tiny remuneration from word to cover desolation from former tenants as good as to illustrate he saw a little large income signs.
At which rate it would have been good over $80 an hour for what he worked. After job him he pronounced he’d send an updated a single for 5.5K.
I told him there is no approach which is correct as good as wrote him a check for $1,800 which he afterwards supposed (I have additionally paid income up front for tools of a project).
Yesterday we perceived a form in a mail which he filled suet for 5.7k.
What should we do from here? Will be contacting a counsel upon monday. What authorised station does he have? Especially with mixed invoices as good as a written agreement which he functions for $20 an hour.
Also a check is not damaged down in anyway.
Thank you!
He supposed a check though hasn’t cashed it to date. Handed it to him as good as did put “P.I.F.” upon a memo line.

if we usually have the allude to for an hourly salary afterwards your kind of screwed unless we can infer the expect series of hours he worked. everybody knows we should get quotes from 3 opposite contractors as well as have all conditions in the created contract…
Anything upon paper will have a many stroke in court. If we never sealed a remuneration agreement, conjunction of we has most to argue, it will be up to a justice to confirm whose credit to hold upon a written agreement, no record.
Invoices which he done up with extreme costs have been only his side of a argument. If he has profits for materials, a justice will cruise those, though we have been right, we disbelief a decider is starting to determine to $80 an hour, substantially will demeanour during allied jobs by alternative contractors as well as go with that. we would get quotes from alternative contractors for we do a same pursuit as justification for court.
Since he has zero with your signature similar to compensate a aloft rate, he’s not in a quite clever position. we could have up an check observant we owe me $1000 for digging a ditch, though who is starting to hold me? In a future, get your agreements in writing, only to equivocate things similar to this.
Well, great thing for we which the weight of explanation is starting to be upon the contractor. Also great thing for we is which he supposed the check for payment. It would be even improved if we wrote “payment in full” upon the check, though live as well as learn.
Looks similar to we dual will only need to crush it out in court, as well as let the decider decide.
