HNM Land & Home, LLC.

After meeting with the owner of the business, we believed they were above board and agreed to work with them for a multi-room project. They gave us an estimate before they knew what materials we wanted to use and then, of course, when they realized the materials were too expensive for their quote, they backed out of the job. Only problem was, they never actually told us they were backing out. Instead, they continued to email and text us saying they were "almost ready" to begin when what they were actually doing was waiting on our insurance check to be sent to them. When the check came directly to us and we didn't pay them (for not doing any work), they threatened a lien, their attorney, small claims court, and finally credit collection agency. We had no signed contract and no agreement of any work done which is why our insurance company sent the check directly to us, and not to them, as they'd hoped. We refused to pay any money to them. After 18 months of threats, they finally sent us to a collection agency which we are in the process of disputing. An acquaintance who had work done by this contractor confided in me that they too had tried to get the same amount of money out of her for doing nothing, but unfortunately, when they began with their threats, she paid them the money. They continue to harass me and my family by threatening defamation of character law suits when I give them a bad reference locally to people here in town.
