I feel like an innocent bystander - how can they come after my home?

Find a lawyer and file suit against the contractor. Your attorney should petition the court to view the lien and the merits of your suit at the same time. This usually brings a counter suit from the contractor against the sub-contractor and the fun begins. \nBad news is, you're liable to the sub-contractor.\nGood news is that the judge may decide the amount is excessive or that the contractor is defrauding the public. Either good news ways protect your investment and releases your liability.\nGood luck!

I've heard of this before... I will not take sides....There is no where you can hide...They will summon there friends you will not be safe in or out of your house.......I would suggest waving a white flag and talking to them and see how you can right the wrong you've done to them...HURRY!!!! Time is running out.......

Sounds like a nosy neighbour.....\n\nGo to your local police station and ask them what can be done.

You should have already done something.  To act like a victim is a choice.  Go to the police about the phone call.  Find out what your options are now.

If I was you I think I'd do whatever it takes to avoid these people, even if you have to move. \nMisery loves company and they are trying to make your family just like theirs. \nFind better people to socialize with before your hindsight tells you you should have.

Keep calling the police. Call the apartment management. Talk to neighbors. Maybe you could start a neighborhood group that will agree to go together and hang out on the front porch all together to make these guys uncomfortable. Call some Christian rehab people! That'll get 'em!! Don't give up. Too many people give up and the drugs and prostitution takes over good neighborhoods. This is especially bad when there are children in the area, as they are susceptible to influences.

i am just like u. I feel like i don't do anything right. If some people think you are a goof, they will just have to live with it. Real good people do not care what is on the out but what is on the in. Take that into consideration when somebody tries to make fun of you.\n\n         You may not be a goof, you may just think you are and other people could think you are really cool.

It is possible that they ran out of gas, but being a cynic I am more inclined to believe that you were scammed.\n\nThe likely scenario is that they saw the lights on in your home and decided to see what they could get off of you.\n\nI am very wary of strangers coming to my home. I likely would not have answered the door, and if they persisted in knocking, I would have asked what they wanted without opening the door. And when she went into her spiel, I would've just said, sorry, and turned off the lights.

You have a very valid point, but I hope you don't get blown up for finding fault....check your door twice before going to bed tonight..a suicide bomber may be lurking close by ;-)

Just hang in there.  It sounds like you tried to do the right thing by trying to help someone out and got taken advantage of.  It's okay to feel bad about that and pissed too.  Someone else's awful behavior shouldn't make you feel like you shouldn't exist.  I know that doesn't really help sometimes.  All I can say is that a lot of us have been in similar situations and you just have to ride this out, write it out or do something to get it out of your head.

you definitly have a reason to be upset, like you said you are always considerate to others and care for them, they should have done the same for you or just rang to see if you were okay.  People do have their own lives to lead but honestly, how long does it take to make a phone call just to check up?\nIf i were you i wouldn't ring or mail until they are bothered by you not checking up on them and then when they do ring tell them that you felt you were being left to go alone and no one wanted to know.  Hopefully then they will realise you were hurt by this and they will then see they have been inconsiderate towards you.

Why are you feeling sorry for you self girl?. You need to get active in stuff. Voluntary at a hospital, help feed the homeless, become a big sister. Make someone else the center of the universe and not your self. Truthfully your question is lifeless. I hope you are okay.

I would, and did, talk to all of my neighbors about it. and most of all, without getting confrontational unless you can protect yourself. I would let him know somehow that you know who/what he is, this could keep him from trying to be friendly, thus trying to work his way to your and others good graces to victimize another women.\nI would, in no instance, move because you cannot live your life like that. anyway if you have access to a sex offender database you would find that there is no place in a city that there is not some peice of trash around. I live in washington and have a neighborhood website that gives neighborhood info but it also has a link to the washington state sex offender website... There are over 100 living within 10 miles from me and two level 3 sex offenders less than a block away, I live in a nice area of town in vancouver also. i can tell you one thing. I make myself visable to the houses near mine with the filth in them, I usually walk my 150lb. Bullmastiff with me when I go by their houses, and i have to admit, I kinda mad-dog'em a little when I see them so I know he knows I know that he is a peice of trash and he will be the first place i go if My wife or kids are missing. \n Please refuse to be intimedated don't live your life in fear. You can equalizes the situation... get a gun and go to the county sherrif (if there isn't anyone you can trust to teach you) and take classes, become comfortable with it and don't worry, i know it is not politicaly correct to say it, but, no amount of self defence training is going to make up for the strength difference between most men and women. Women in this day of age should not feal affraid, it makes me so pissed off that this kind of scum can walk free, but as long as they do I feel a little better knowing that my Wife is a better shot with her pistole than I am (I don't feel bad, My grandfather was a firearms instructer for 30 years and he says that women are usually better with a hand gun than men... at least that is what i tell myself anyway) ... Also It keeps me in line ...

you shouldn't feel bad, it's only fair that they pay. just stop them and say that you don't want to be a bother but there needs to be a conversation about the rent...
