Company Won't Pay

Very worst case....you can take someone to small claims court for under 100 bucks with no attorney. you can only sue for low amounts, here in ohio it's $5000.00, but that's better then a hot stick in the eye if you cant afford an attorney

 

You own the tractor? I'd put a lein on their trailer for the total amount due. No pay, no trailer.

Mechanics do it all the time, why can't we?

 

run driver, dont walk

get a lawyer, most will even do a payment plan

they are using you to finiance thier operation, and screwing you for your trouble




and now that you learned a lesson the hard way, i bet you investigate the crap out of the next outfit you think about leasing on with

 

You can also do it for personal debits
It's very easy, just have to go to the local court house

 

OOIDA loves to go after people that violate leasing rules, member or not give them a call.

 

You could take them to small claims court on each load suing on one load at a time to keep the amount under the court limit, after the first 2 or 3 case they may just pay you up.

 

Good Luck Sadly I think you will only end up with a judgement but that is a definite start

 

I expect that you will be awarded the full settlement, but you better lien their personal property, ie real estate, personal vehicles, bank accounts (which can be frozen by court order). Go after everything....

 

Contact CH Robinson and let them know you were scammed. Maybe they will pay you directly.
