I need help filing a lawsuit against a very wealthy country club.?

Question

Well my wife and I got had our wedding reception at this country club, which was not cheap. They just happened to have a broken air conditioner that day. It was unbearably hot for all the guests. I really need some advice on what to do. I've been talking to the GM about getting a mont back and he is being very unprofessional.

Answer 1

You will need an attorney -- no doubt.  Some things are beyind control of the cc.  The Central A/C unit going out is one.  Good luck

Answer 2

Consult an attorney but I have a feeling you would probably be wasting more money.

Unless it was written into the contract you signed when renting the room, they probably aren't required to refund anything.

Would've been great had they stepped up to the plate and reimbursed you but I doubt legally they would have too.

Another option you might take is to contact a local television station that has a "problem solvers" or "consumer problem" feature.

Maybe they can guilt the country club into returning at least some of your money to avoid the bad publicity.  

Answer 3

Talk to a lawyer. See if you have a case.

Answer 4

Consult an attorney

Answer 5

All I can tell you is good luck on this one.

If you would have told the owner/manager that is was unacceptable, and didn't use the country club then you may have had a chance.

But considering you went ahead and used it you probably won't get your money back.

And keep in mind some lawyers probably attend this country club and wont accept the case. And like you said the country club is wealthy so they will be able to afford the best lawyers to defend them.

And if air conditioning wasn't in the agreement...your out of luck.

When I went to decorate for my wedding reception the night before the wedding, the owners cut the amount of room I was told I would get when I paid. I was told I was going to get the whole ballroom and was given 2/3 instead. He told me they don't rent the whole ballroom for the amount of people I was expecting after I already paid with the understanding I be receiving the whole room, and my receipt reflected only the 2/3.

I had no proof to go on and it was to late to find another reception hall so I got screwed.
