Got a call
A couple of months ago.
We had done some surveying for a client who ended up in legal trouble. The neighbor and our client didn’t get along at all. So we finished what we could, the client ended up in jail for a bit, we washed our hands of the whole project.
Then the neighbor calls and wanted us to do some more, he had hired a surveyor but didn’t like the answers. The entire area is rife with disputes and legal fights.
Spidy sense was on overload.
I said not interested.
He didn’t understand; “Are you turning me down for work?”
Yep!!! I’m too busy with not-conflicted happy people to get in a middle of a big dispute. At this point I’m not taking legal disputes.
But, but, but.
Talked to a local surveyor about working for him and he launched into a long story about his contact with him and it was not a good story. Needless to say he’s not going to do any work there.
Down at the county for a meeting, the powers be asked if I would be interested to get involved, seems the police had been called in, the landowners are trying to rope the county into it, and everyone is lawyered up.
NOPE!!!!
NOT INTERESTED
WHEW!!!!
There isn’t going to be a good resolution to this one is my guess.
My advice to them was to find a non-local surveyor to take it on, can’t think of one that I’d wish it on.
