Wrought Iron Forge

follow up to previous post. Mr. Vasquez not only avoided payments of his debt, several thousands of dollars, but also avoided court appearances. As a result he was sent a letter alerting him that there was a warrant for his arrest should he not appear before the court within 5 days. He ignored the courts letter and to further avoid payment of his debt, walter vasquez has vacated his apartment. Moved his family just to avoid responsibility! Unfortunately for him, we have located him again. In the meantime, should he get pulled over or incur any violation or ticket, the police will arrest him. Consumers, stay away from this guy and don't let him do work in your home. He genuinely is bad news. more

Update: On November 6, 2006, Wrought Iron Forge and walter vasquez was found guilty and responsibile in the Los Angeles Superior court of taking our money and not providing services. Mr. Vasquez acknowledged responsibility and the court allowed him a payment plan. He has not participated and paid us at all. The court has been notified and steps are now being taken to force him to identify his assets and/or have the Sherriffs forcefully take his assets to repay this debt. wrought Iron forge and it's owner walter vasquez took a substantial deposit from us and never did the work. He kept claiming "creative block" but truthfully he ran from the job. He did install an exterior railing but forgot to seal it causing massive rust. He also had been hired to work on our metal fireplace. He took it home, must have left it in the rain and when we demanded he return it he left it sheepishly by the side of the house - claiming "no one was home." the entire custom fireplace is rusted and ruined. we sent letters, faxes, emails and certified mail to him demanding our money and the cost to repair the items he damaged. He has yet to return our $3500 deposit or taken responsibility for the damage. We are taking him to small claims court. criminal. more
