I talked with David Fertig on a conference call with K.C. of Capstone Industrial in December 2020. KC recommended David. I further met with David in his office and on my property. As a result of these meetings and KCs recommendation I deposited $70,000 with David in December.

David advised his design process would take two weeks even with the plans I provided him. One week after this timeline which David dictated, approximately the third week of January, I requesting a date to meet to review completed plans. David told me he needed an additional month to complete design phase. I accepted the delay and waited the month. Not hearing anything from David the last week of February I contacted David requesting a design completion meeting. I was not told at this time the design had not been completed let alone started.

Today, March 1, 2021, I met with David, again at my request, and was greeted with I have bad news. Because of other work David would not be able to work my project this year. I asked David what I owed him for the design work for which he requested the additional month and the reason I was in his office. He stated $225. I asked why so low. His response was that he had not done the design.

He returned $70,000 deposit in the form of a bank check that was 'previously drafted' and sitting on his desk. I took receipt of my plans and the check and departed without a word.

It is one thing to have signed work proceed your project in scheduling. I accept this. It is another thing to be told design work world take two weeks, ask for four more weeks after the client requests a design meeting and not deliver the design. Was my $70,000 held until David had sufficient signed worked. Sure seems like it especially since he requested an additional month for design work he never completed.
