What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? GA
I started a business helping clients with renovation projects. Helping them screen and select contractors that are licensed, insured, bonded etc.
A client of mine gave a contractor a deposit of $1600 3 weeks prior to starting work on their home. They have a contract in place, also have the drivers license and vehicle tag number of the contractor.
The morning the work was to begin the contractor didn't show claiming he had an injury to his knee. He then became more elusive to the phone calls and now only responds via text message. I went to his house to confirm that he gave the correct address and he did. He said he would return the deposit but is yet to do so.
What steps can my client take to recover the funds?
The contractor has a MO drivers license but lives in Cobb County GA.
How can i begin small claims proceedings for my client?
Any help is appreciated.
