Florida-
The building I live in is privately owned. The landlord is having his own condo built in the building next door. The only parking for my building is in the designated parking area next to HIS building/construction. There are no signs advising of a constructiion site or to park at your own risk. Needless to say one of the construction workers dropped a piece of dry wall on my vehicle and shattered my front windshield. I call the leasing office (his office) and they refuse to release any information and deny knowing who the construction company is (which is hard to believe since they work for them) They are basically telling me it is my problem and they cannot help me. I do not have insurance that covers glass damage. Just the state minimum. Regardless I should not be expected to pay either way. The issue is not about the money but about the liability and them picking up the tab for something that is clearly their fault. It is the owner's construction and one of the contractor's that HE is paying damaged MY car. But they refuse to release any information. I have tons of pictures and the evidence is clear and obvious it was something from that site that was dropped from the building and onto my car. Any ideas on how to get them to just pay the $250 bucks for the repair without hauling them into court?
