Hello, We are new to the Villages. We are very excited to finally be here, but ran into serious issues that we need some advice on.
Issue: Our trucking moving company really screwed-up, and "F" us.
For instance:
1.They delayed our furniture delivery several weeks from the original posted delivery date
(we were left stressed, sitting in an empty house and had to buy some basic items.)
2.Held our furniture "for ransom" until we paid the final balance, "before" final delivery
(a short story we will post later)
3.Delivered pretty much all of our big furniture damaged, countless dishware and items broken,
4. Two TVs were badly water logged/damaged (other items soaked, wet)
5. Stolen / "missing" - 2 other TVs, various electronics, household items.
Since then:
We are were very stressed, but now at an anger stage.
We setup what we had delivered, or what we could.
We contacted local police to start a police report to be on record.
More:
We have done some digging even deeper, and found this is common practice to Villagers. And, this trucking company changed "sub-contractors" many times before our items were delivered.
Question: Does anyone know of, or recommend, a good attorney or law firm?
We want to sue these guys for the stolen/missing & damaged items.
Thank you,
TheNewbies

had same problem when I moved here. Big mistake, should have sold everything and started over. They "lost" about 1/3 of my things, charged me more money than agreed and were 3 weeks late getting here. Called my attorney and was told would cost more to sue than what things were worth. Wrote it off as bad experience.
