Ohio AG Hammers Home Improvement Contractors For Pocketing Customer Cash, Failing To Provide Services Paid For
From the Office of the Ohio Attorney General:
- As Ohio consumers begin to make springtime repairs to their homes, Attorney General Richard Cordray [] sent a stern message to home improvement contractors who defraud Ohioans. Concluding a statewide law enforcement sweep, Cordray announced charges, and in some cases judgments, against eight Ohio companies accused of swindling consumers.
The lawsuits and default judgments against contractors alleging violations of Ohio’s Consumer Sales Practices Act have accused the companies of pocketing money from Ohio consumers to do home improvement work, and then failing to provide the services for which consumers paid. Among the various accusations include failing to deliver, shoddy workmanship, soliciting consumers without providing a written agreement, failing to cough up refunds, among other

I am a current resident of All Seasons Mobile Home Park in Deerfield, Ohio. I've been fighting a bogus repair charge and a bogus criminal charge. All because of rotten lies told by Carol Foster and Vicki Gilpin of Modern Management Solutions (The management and billing company located in Ravenna, Ohio).
Now, they are trying to aquire my paid off home free and clear so they can re-sell it for a huge profit. They have done this sort of thing before with the help of their attorney David Allen Sed. Its become part of their business model. Horrible, but true.
If you want to know how all of this unfolded, please visit either of the following sites:

You can read the entire backround so far, including my sworn statement filed with Portage County Municipal Court, view photos, and learn a few things about the rotten business practices of M.M.S. Something has to be done. This is what I've chosen to do.
