FAR 020
Benjamin Franklin, Signer of the Declaration of Independence "[O]nly a virtuous people are capable of freedom. As nations become corrupt and vicious, they have more need of masters." This thought is brought to you by the Foundation for Renewal, working with communities to impact and improve lives. On the web at RenewalFund.net. Emails: From Stan in Boulder, CO. “How do I fire a contractor?”
- Loaded question!
- Hopefully you have a written agreement. Make sure you follow it carefully. And hopefully your lawyer checked out the agreement before you signed it. Your Legal Shield attorney will review this agreement and any other contract you want her to see for free.
- Notify in writing of default and intent to fire.
- If default not cured, terminate as soon as possible.
- Preferably in person.
- By phone is ok., not text.
- Follow up conversation with email.
- Make sure you have made all payments due, provided evidence of payments made, documented reasons for termination, especially any dispute over payment,
- Make sure you have interim lien waivers for any money paid out so far.
- Change the lockbox at the house.
