I know usually contractors complain about people not giving them thier money but 1/2 the time the contractors either havent done what was originally agreed upon or else they did a shitty job and something broke/messed up and they don't feel they should have to replace anything that screws up or is trashed-thats why I say get a maintenance bond....it puts the contractors in handcuffs when it comes to getting done what you agreed upon to begin and it covers your ass if they do a shitty job or use shitty materials and it screws up say weeks/months later.

Anyhow, good luck but I doubt your BF will get anywhere.
I don't know the laws in the state of Florida or New York, but usually contractors have more protection than home/business owners that are contracting for the work.

I definitly agree with kddani, have your boyfriend and his partner contact the lawyer that set up the LLC for them. He/she will mostly likely be able to help them or at least refer them to an attorney who specializes in these matters.
