I'm sure what you learned about hand-shake agreements this year will dramatically change the way you go about something like this the next time. You're almost stuck unless this body shop will own up and do what you think you all agreed to.

As for legal advice - PLEASE don't select a lawyer the same way you did a body shop!

The devil is in the details

Sounds like you paid him in advance. Big mistake.

For those who claim he should sue, here is a non-rhetorical question (or two or three):

1. How much do you estimate an attorney will charge? $500, $1000, $3000, $6000, etc?
2. How much could he win in court?
3. What would you expect his net profit or loss to be after the suit?
