I have a small rental business that I started to enable me to acquire equipment that I need for personal use. Mostly the business does just fine. Occasionally there is the ------ that rents the equipment and abuses it. Most of them will pay the damages. The few that have not I have sued and won, only to find out that they have no money or assets I can attach. Eventually I get the money but it is long term. At present I have an individual that rented a tractor/shredder and mowed brush doing several thousand dollars worth of damage. He will not respond to phone or certified mail. I am really getting tired of attorney fees and just dealing with this type of person.
What I am thinking of doing is putting a sign on his gate to please come pay his bill. This is in an effort to embarrass him into paying. Problem is I do not know if I can legally do this. I do not want to end up at the wrong end of a suit.
What do you guys think? Any other ideas that won't put me in jail?
