On Monday 6-26-06 after speaking with Jay Klein, son of owner of Safeguard Properties Robert Klein, Jay indicated that our company was chargedback $75000 for advances on work done for Katrina Relief. The true amount advanced was $45,000 that was paid back BEFORE they ever billed or paid to us. Money was taken from seperate contracts for work on non-related properties for preservation work yet still haven't paid for the Katrina work that was completed 10 monhs ago. The owner, Robert Klein, who contacted us via conference calls prior to agreeing to work, promised paymen t on ALL Katrina Rehabs to be QC'ed and paid within 72 hours, he now refuses to return calls and sends back OUT OF OFFICE reply's to ALL e-mail requests.
