I need opinions, I sold a house 15 Mths ago and had new thg system installed, it passed inspection and now buyer says the system wasnt a whole system only an air handler was installed . It was put in attic and I didn’t go up there but heat and air guy said he went back out there and it was fine. Now she is sueing us for 10000 as she said we wired it to 110 instead of 220 and it only had heat strips. I dk but inspector passed it and she waited a yr before she complained. ?? Does she have a chance in small claims court of winning?
Do you have documentation for the replacement and the inspectors conclusion?
Crazy lawsuit. She has no chance of winning if you had a professional install it and you still have the receipts to prove it and an inspection report proving it passed. She is suing the wrong party and should be suing the installer. You should file a motion to dismiss plus costs.
Don’t get sued!
As weak, trivial, and nuisance-oriented as this might be; as much as you may have all of your ammunition – evidence, proof, documentation, etc. – and look and feel like an easy winner; as much as this may sound, feel, and appear to be a slam dunk for you…speak with an attorney…an experienced (in this area), qualified attorney.
Don’t be penny-wise and dollar-foolish. Good luck.
