I spoke too soon when I started to get happy about the settlement proposal made by our former general contractor. When I finally saw the document I was supposed to sign, it was so loaded up with conditions that I didn't want to sign it. We would have wound up signing away too much in order to get a total of approximately $10K freed up to use on our house.
Our lawyer said we should sign it anyway, and that she would include her own set of conditions. If he took the adjusted deal, great. If not, we would sue as soon as we can raise the funds. He rejected our conditions. So now we will wind up in court over this. The weirdest part of all this is that our contract states that before going to court or filing liens or anything else, the contractor is REQUIRED to request arbitration. He is now unwilling to arbitrate, and we are on record wanting it. So we are back a few steps again. I sure hope this resolves soon because it is really getting old living in a trailer 300 feet from a nearly completed house.
