Many here heard my story of the crooked dentist that ripped me off. Well I have news. [View all]

http://www.democraticunderground.com/10028088949

Here is the original thread. Originally they were going to give me around $3,050 but they wanted $1,300 back for the last cap. I took him to small claims court and sued for the maximum which is $5,000. I just went yesterday and in arbitration they, (the ones from his office that he sent) offered me $5,000. Plus court costs.

I WON!!!!!!!!!! They have three weeks to send me a check for $5,350. I mentioned as we were leaving that if I didn't see it by then I was going to contact the attorney general, (thanks to the one who suggested that to me)







I encourage everyone to face "the big ones" that try to intimidate you.
