If you were going to do $108K of services for somebody wouldn't you draw up a binding contract? This has to be a no-brainer.

Also, if I was doing $108K worth of landscaping it would be pay as you go. No way would I eat that much and hope to get it back in a lawsuit.

Both parties seem like a couple of numbskulls.

Lots of rich folks make it a point of honor to screw their help.

They also change/add to plans along the way, helter-skelter, and then fight tooth-and-nail against paying for the changes.

I've heard the stories...
