Best Windows and Doors Owner Mike Chavez Grilled By Angry Consumers at Bankruptcy Hearing
More than 40 angry consumers, many elderly and disabled, packed the U.S. Trustee's hearing room for a Jan. 26th bankruptcy hearing. They peppered Mike Chavez, owner of the now-bankrupt Best Windows and Doors, with questions about non-existent NERF rebates, unfinished and unstarted jobs, unpaid subcontractors, mechanic's liens, questionable financing and undisclosed assets. Two Contractors' State License Board representatives attending the hearing told the consumers and the Trustee that CSLB is investigating Best Windows and encouraged consumers to file complaints with CSLB and the District Attorney.

I don’t think so, if that
I don’t think so, if that would really the best solution on that matter. Perhaps, It's a good thing to try and repair your credit. You must cultivate discipline in trying to repair your credit, and stay away from taking on additional burdens. You should lay off the credit cards, budget smart, and do your best to keep everything within your means. However, sudden circumstances arise, and that's why there are payday loans. Whatever you want to call them, cash advance, short term loans, military loans (for those serving bravely in the armed forces), personal loans, they are a great tool for sudden emergencies, and if used responsibly and moderately, are a great tool for debt relief and aiding in the efforts to repair your credit.
