How a Consumer Hired a Lawyer to Draft a Home Improvement Contract in Michigan

In 2023, a personal client in Michigan sought assistance with drafting a home improvement contract after encountering issues with a painter who had placed a mechanic's lien on their property without prior notice. Despite having provided a down payment via credit card, the client's experience with the painter deteriorated, as subsequent attempts to rectify the initial work resulted in further problems. Frustrated by the lack of communication from the painter, the client aimed to resolve the situation professionally. As a result, the client received one proposal from a licensed lawyer, with a flat fee bid of $450, submitted to meet the requested deadline of less than a week.
