| I hired someone to do work on my house. They did a lousy job, but I already paid them in advance by check. Can I stop payment on their check? |
Answer: Yes, with a catch: You will typically invite a civil lawsuit against you by the person who did the work, and that individual may file a "notice of lien" against your property. You would then be forced to litigate these issues in court; so the best scenario, according to most homeowners, is to stop payment on the check, and yet avoid the anticipated litigation by negotiating over payment of a lesser amount, a typical win-win or lose-lose result. |
