If something has happened, because of a purchase.  Get a hold of the Better Business Bureau.  I had a problem with a company and I got ahold of the B.B.B. and I received my money back in full.  If that is not what you had in mind, then word of mouth is always a good way

This is a liability exposure on your landlord's part, as he is the owner of the property that caused the damage.  You should file a claim against his commercial general liability policy.  They will determine if he is liable or not.  If he is found to be liable for the damage they will pay for the repairs.  There is no need to sue anybody, just file a claim and see what happens from there.  The adjuster who handles it from his insurance company will just ask if it was rotten and if it looked like it needed to be removed, if this is the case he is liable and his insurance will pay.  I am an adjuster and we pay these claims when there are obvious signs of rot and if the owner of the property knew of the problem.  If it is a healthy tree and there was no way of preventing it on your landlords part, he is not liable. Good luck.

First thing, talk to the manager, of the real estate business. If they can't resolve the issue, I would report it to the Better Business Bureau. It wouldn't hurt, to tell\nwhat happened, to a lawyer.

Public liability insurance would be a good idea, otherwise you would be very vulnerable if you poison a customer with the wrong leaves, or if the canopy falls off your stall and cracks someone on the head. If you are employing anyone, you will need Employer's Liability insurance, too. \nGood luck with he business.

Serve notice, and if that doesn't work sue.\n\nSince property is involved it's probably best to get it lawyered, but a solicitor's letter will probably do the trick.

Contact the head of their company. Send letters of complaints, report them as abusing and demand your money back. Pretty much be a persistant bastard until they refund you and tell them that they've lost your business and you'll tell everyone you know not to do business with them.

You could pay an escrow company to take the risk but that will cut into your profits.\n\nBasically this is the risk you run with dealing with a company in a place that you are unlikely to be able to get legal redress.  The best guarantee you have is the lure of regular business.\n\nGood luck

If that's what the proposal said, and that's what you signed, then it will be difficult, but not impossible, for you to prevail.  First, think about getting a copy of the proposal.  The fence company should have it. Read it.  Where is the limitation of liability clause?  Did you see it? Did they point it out to you?  Is it reasonable? (i.e. there are some things in some states that you can't waive by contract.  If the thing says that they're not liable for any damage whatsoever, it may or may not be enforceable in Florida).  Did you mention the PVC piping to them? Did they make any oral representations about the pipe (these may or may not be valid, depending upon the representations)?\nThis is an uphill legal battle for you, but what about the practical side? Call the business owner, tell him:\nHey, your guys really messed up my underground PVC piping.  I'm not happy with your work, and I would like to talk with you about having you help pay for the repairs.  \n\nExplain exactly how the fense building caused the repairs.  If possible get some proof that they didn't build the fence in a "workmanlike" way--that they were not careful somehow.  Mention that you can report these facts (never say that you'll badmouth the business itself; that can be grounds for a business libel suit) to your friends.  See if the guy will work with you.  Don't just talk to the person who answers the phone, or even the super who put up the fence--get as high up as possible.  Perhaps there is a non-legal way to settle this.\n\nIn addition, if the value is just a few thousand dollars or less, you can consider taking this to small claims court -- (the name is different in each state).  You don't need a lawyer (some states prohibit a lawyer) and the rules of evidence don't apply.  The forms are easy, and oftentimes the judge will give a "fair" verdict, rather than one that would apply a strict interpretation of the law.  Just give the facts without emotion.\n\nAs always, you can (and should) consult an attorney.  Most attorneys do not charge for their original consultation.  Call the Bar association for a referral, especially for one that does "construction defect" litigation.

Cool, if this your accountant or your boss, if you are in charge of marketing, cut all marketing expenditure, especially the working ones, before he know, sales drop and lead to company collapse.\n\nMake sure you have an exit plan before you do that. Go along with their strength, teach them a lesson that way.
