Finest Floors

My name is Mark Sodos. I am Dean’s brother and I am responding NOW to Sheldon’s recent posts (even though I wanted to do so earlier, on more than one occasion, but Dean asked me to refrain from doing so and I honored his request) because Sheldon has indicated in his most recent posts that I understood and/or supported Sheldon Hirsch stealing almost $5,000 from my brother, Dean Sodos and that is just an out and out lie and Sheldon is acutely aware of this FACT so I am writing this one and only response today so my position regarding this matter is clear to anyone who reads this.
I will go into greater detail below, but my position on this matter is very clear: SHELDON IS A LIAR AND A THIEF JUST AS MY BROTHER DEAN HAS STATED; AND, SHELDON ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION HAS FAILED TO HONOR HIS AGREEEMENT(S) TO PAY THE MONEY BACK TO MY BROTHER. SHELDON SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF HIMSELF AND I AM DISGUSTED THAT I REFERRED MY BROTHER DEAN TO SHELDON AND THAT SHELDON THEN STOLE DEAN’S MONEY (even after I both texted and called Sheldon and demanded that Sheldon pay Dean back the money you stole from Dean!).
After reading all of the posts on this site, and because I was privy to what transpired between my brother and Sheldon from the onset (because, as noted above, I referred Sheldon to Dean), it is crystal clear that Sheldon does not have the capability to effectively communicate as an adult, and even if he did, he has nothing of substance to add to the conversation, so he spends the majority of his time communicating on this site by utilizing foul/obscene language, making up “facts” and “scenarios” presumably so he does not have to take ownership or responsibility for his criminal behavior (while simultaneously deceiving family/friends into thinking Sheldon has been “mistreated”). I will not respond to all of Sheldon’s crazy accusations, only to a few of his patently objectively false claims, but I believe I will provide the reader with enough of the relevant objective facts here to clear up any misconceptions the reader may have after having read some/all of the previous posts on this site:
1. If anyone reading this post really wants to know in detail what transpired between Sheldon and my brother Dean, I recommend you read my brother Dean’s initial 18-page post at the beginning of this site, which details precisely what transpired, and which was written by my brother Dean SOLELY to warn others about Sheldon’s criminal behavior and to prevent others from having their money stole from them by Sheldon.
2. I sent Sheldon a text after Sheldon stole Dean’s money and I told Sheldon that he should pay my brother back, and Sheldon responded by text indicating he would not return my brothers money. Sheldon did not include this pertinent objective fact in Sheldon’s recent post, for obvious reasons, because it contradicted Sheldon’s false narrative that Sheldon did not owe Dean any money because Sheldon didn’t steal Dean’s money.
3. I was so upset with Sheldon, and the fact that he was stealing my brother’s Dean’s money when I was the person who referred Sheldon to my brother, that I called Sheldon and once again demand he pay my brother back and again Sheldon refused. Of course, Sheldon did not include this fact is his recent post, again, for obvious reasons, it didn’t fit into his false/phony narrative.
4. Sheldon did the same thing to me that Dean warned others about in his initial post on this site, that Sheldon would utilize the bait and switch tactic, I just didn’t realize it at the time.
a. I contracted with Sheldon to install carpets in my entire house (I was moving from San Jose to the Sacramento area) for $3,400 and paid Sheldon a down payment of $2,210 as Sheldon requested, an illegally high amount (again a practice of Sheldon’s that Dean warned others about in his initial post). The day before Sheldon was to install my carpet, he called me late in the afternoon to tell me that it would cost $1,000 more and it would be a different carpet than the one I contracted with him to purchase. As my furniture was being delivered in two days to SJ, I was figuratively between a rock and a hard place and I really had no choice but to pay the extra $1,000 and get a different carpet than the one I ordered (again, something Dean warned others about in his initial post). I did not at the time realize this “bait and switch” was Sheldon’s normal mode of operation or I would not have referred him to my brother. The ONLY reason I referred him was because I knew Dean had already picked the exact carpet he wanted and the installation of my carpet was done in a professional manner. I also did not realize Sheldon utilizes different installers on each carpet job, if I had, I would not have referred Dean to Sheldon.
5. As soon as my brother Dean told me about Sheldon’s bait and switch with the master “cabinet installer” who Sheldon contracted to do Dean’s job and was replaced by Sheldon with a person who was so incompetent, he installed the first piece in the new kitchen remodel, the pantry, UPSIDE down and not level just as my brother Dean indicated in his initial post (my brother Dean had previously told me that the first cabinet installer who Sheldon brought to his house had unpacked several of the cabinets that were in Dean’s garage and then this “cabinet installer” left my brother’s house without providing notice to my brother Dean or to Sheldon [and never returned] so the kitchen remodel with Sheldon had already gotten off to a rocky start before the 2nd “cabinet installer” arrived at Dean’s house). I know this for a FACT because Dean sent me the photos of what it looked like and it looked like the pantry was “installed” by someone who had no cabinetry or construction experience whatsoever, let alone the master cabinet maker who Sheldon specifically contracted to provide on my brother’s kitchen remodel job. I think my brother could have done a better job installing the pantry himself! In Sheldon’s recent post he states that the “cabinet” (Sheldon calls it a cabinet, but it is a pantry) that my brother claims was installed upside down was “unsubstantiated”. Sheldon knows it was installed upside down, and Sheldon’s cabinet installer also knows it was installed upside down (see below) just like I do, and that is why I say in no small part that Sheldon should be just plain ashamed of himself. It is a serious problem for Sheldon’s cabinet installer to make an error of this magnitude (even though Sheldon’s cabinet installer admitted to the error as soon as I pointed it out to him), but that problem is elevated to a whole different level when Sheldon to this day can’t admit this error to his friends/family because Sheldon would be so embarrassed to do so, particularly after posting on multiple occasions that he was a “great business man.” Of course, if the cabinet installer was truly an experienced professional cabinet installer as Sheldon claims, I expect this cabinet installer would have joined the conversation by now to protect his reputation/good name, explaining what a terrific job the cabinet installer did and explaining how my brother Dean was out of line in some way, but we all know that will never happen because as noted above, the cabinet installer was the first to recognize his error when Dean told Sheldon’s cabinet installer that the pantry was hung upside down (in other words Sheldon’s installer would confirm Dean’s version of events not Sheldon’s version) and because Sheldon’s cabinet installer was very happy my brother Dean let him stay on and watch/learn how to install kitchen cabinets from Dean’s contractor (in other words, Sheldon’s cabinet installer was grateful to Dean). In addition to the above, how could Sheldon’s cabinet installer claim to be a professional cabinet installer when this installer knows we have pictures demonstrating he had absolutely no idea what he was doing, installing a pantry upside down and not level!
a. In Sheldon’s actual quote from his recent post Sheldon states “While You [Dean] continue to say this person hung the first cabinet upside down.. your claim is unsubstantiated and nonetheless he worked through it and stayed on until the cabinets were completed. “ – I have already personally confirmed/substantiated that the Pantry was in fact installed upside down by your cabinet installer just as my brother indicated it was, but I must also point out that the reason Sheldon’s installer “stayed on” the job and it was NOT because as Sheldon indicated above that Sheldon’s installer finished installing the kitchen cabinets (i.e., “he worked through it and stayed on until the cabinets were completed”), but rather, it was because Dean’s contractor took over the job of installing the kitchen cabinets and Sheldon’s “installer” wanted to “learn” how to do this type of work, so he stayed on the job for the SOLE purpose of learning how to do this job (by watching/assisting my contractor). Sheldon is a master of telling part truths when it is in his best interest to do so, as he has done here, because by omitting pertinent objective facts/information it provides Sheldon with an opportunity to trick/deceive those that don’t now the true facts, with a false narrative. Of course, when the true facts are brought to light to the reader as I have done here, it is obvious to all that Sheldon is a liar and a thief, someone who is incapable of telling the truth and taking responsibility for his criminal actions.
6. Sheldon makes many statements that he knows to be false, for example, he states “I [Sheldon] purchased all of your [Dean’s] carpet for your [Dean’s] living room.” A reader might take this statement at face value and believe what Sheldon wrote without any due diligence, but if you really take a closer look at the types of statements that Sheldon makes including this one, one will arrive at the only logical conclusion here, that Sheldon makes up everything and anything if Sheldon feels it will further his cause, even if it is inherently dishonest. If Sheldon had purchased the Lowe’s carpet for Dean as Sheldon states, then one might ask Sheldon:
a. Why did you not provide your receipt for this carpet purchase you made when Dean requested you provide him with the receipt years ago?
b. Why did you not provide a copy of this carpet receipt and show up when you were sued in Small Claims court (which resulted in a $10,000 judgement against Sheldon [the majority of the small claims judgement against Sheldon was awarded to my brother Dean for punitive damages which are only awarded in a very minute percentage of Small Claims cases and are awarded SOLELY to punish/deter person from this type of activity in the future])?
c. Why did you not provide a copy of the above noted receipt to the District Attorney’s office when you were accused of impersonating a licensed contractor along with the other felonies and you agreed to a Plea Agreement to pay Dean back what you stole from him?
d. Why didn’t you provide a copy to me when I personally texted you and called you and pleaded with you to pay back my brother Dean. I also requested the receipt evidencing you bought the carpet?
e. How could you possibly purchase the carpet you contracted to purchase and install for my brother Dean when the carpet in question was made for Lowes and only distributed through Lowes?
The answer to a-d directly above is obvious, Sheldon did not provide the receipt for the carpet purchase because he never purchased anything. Why would Sheldon not provide the paid carpet receipt to two different people (my brother Dean and me) and two different governmental agencies (the DA’s office and Small Claims Court), but then 4 years later claim he had the receipt the whole time? I am afraid there is only one logical answer and that is Sheldon is a LIAR. Additionally, the answer to question 4e above, is that Sheldon couldn’t purchase this Lowes carpet anywhere else except Lowes because no other retailer is able to sell/distribute that specific carpet, Lowes is and was the sole distributor of this carpet. Again, Sheldon is a LIAR, Sheldon could not have purchased this carpet anywhere other than Lowes even though Sheldon claimed otherwise. Furthermore, if Sheldon had actually purchased this carpet as he claimed he did, Sheldon would have surely delivered the carpet to my brother Dean to mitigate Sheldon’s damages, but Sheldon never offered to deliver this carpet that he allegedly already HAD in his possession.
7. Sheldon states in his recent post that “I [Sheldon]did not steal a penny from you Dean Sodos! I [Sheldon] properly applied all of your deposit money towards your project.” Again, as in numbers 4a-4d above, if Sheldon didn’t steal a penny from my brother, then why didn’t Sheldon plead his case and fight for himself in the Small Claims court and plead his case and contest the District Attorney’s charges? Again, the answer is CLEAR! Sheldon was guilty and had no excuses, no mitigating factors for his criminal behavior, so he didn’t even have a trial with the DA to contest the charges, Sheldon just accepted the Plea Agreement to pay my brother Dean back which Sheldon has failed to do. Of course, now years later, when there is no further examination of Sheldon’s statements, Sheldon is free to say whatever he wants, true or not, but the evidence speaks for itself. It is speaking loudly and clearly telling everyone that Sheldon Hirsch is a liar and a two-time convicted thief.
8. I must comment on another statement Sheldon made in his recent post, Sheldon stated that “The so-called convictions you [Dean] spoke of were misdemeanors. Littering is a misdemeanor.” Sheldon then goes on to call my brother Dean “Pathetic”. It is disingenuous of Sheldon to compare what he did, going into my brother’s and his wife’s home (as well as many others) and taking almost $5,000 from them while impersonating a licensed contractor (and not delivering any services of value or any products whatsoever) and then comparing that to someone who throws a bubble gum wrapper in the street. The differences between these two crimes are so vastly different in so many obvious ways that I won’t delineate here, I note Sheldon’s statement here to illustrate how Sheldon will do or say anything if Sheldon thinks he will be seen in a “better light”. Of course, Sheldon knows he was charged with felonies for second offenses for the same crime, which were lowered to misdemeanors as part of Sheldon’s Plea Agreement with the DA’s office. Another important fact that you would never find out from Sheldon because it can’t be worked into Sheldon’s false narrative. In other words, if I understand what took place here, Sheldon is comparing 4 felonies which including Sheldon stealing THOUSANDS of dollars, that through a plea agreement got lowered to 2 misdemeanors; and it is those 2 misdemeanors that he then compares with the misdemeanor of littering. Again, Sheldon, do you have no shame?
9. When you utilize my name or likeness (without my knowledge or consent when you know that I adamantly disagree with your position) in some fashion to try and support your position and indicate that my brother Dean did something wrong, that is when I know Sheldon you are just plain no good and dishonest! My brother Dean has done nothing wrong other than HIRING YOU!
In summary, Sheldon stole almost $5,000 from my brother and his wife about four years ago and Sheldon promised to pay this money back via a Plea Agreement with the DA’s office and Sheldon did not pay the money back as Sheldon agreed to do. Most recently, in April of 2021, Sheldon agreed to pay my brother $200/month beginning in May 0f 2021 and of this writing Sheldon has failed to honor that agreement as well. When people say crooks rarely keep their promises, Sheldon obviously fits the mold. At present, Sheldon owes my brother almost $15,000 and just like I told Sheldon years ago (when I called him to demand he pay my brother the money he stole from him) that Dean would collect the full amount Sheldon stole from Dean (at which point Sheldon laughed at), I am telling Sheldon right now clearly and unequivocally, that Dean and/or his private detectives and/or collection agencies will collect the full amount owed, almost $15,000 (even if Sheldon continues to try and hide). Of course, Dean got the last laugh because Sheldon was prosecuted by the DA just as Dean promised. Likewise, I can assure Sheldon Dean WILL collect the full amount that Sheldon owes however long it takes Dean to collect this outstanding judgement.
Sheldon in his recent post goes on to say that “This matter is now and FOREVER out of the courts” – I need to let Sheldon know that he is SADLY mistaken; my brother Dean has informed me that he will continue to utilize the courts to collect the $15,000 in court ordered judgements that Sheldon owes. In other words, Sheldon is not FOREVER out of the courts as he states, but rather, Sheldon is just BEGINNING his interaction with the Small Claim courts system (and based on the amount of the judgments, Sheldon will be involved with the California courts system for a long time into the future).
As I indicated when I wrote this, I am writing only because, you, Sheldon have brought me into this matter by trying to convince others that I share or agree with your perspective, which you know is clearly not the case. I have now explained how I feel about this matter along with the pertinent facts and anyone reading this post can make their own judgments/reach their own conclusions.
I would have written this post years ago, but unlike Sheldon, my brother does NOT involve his family and friends in his personal business as Sheldon does. When you are a man you handle matters as a man, when you are a boy, you act like a juvenile and don’t have the maturity to accept responsibility for your actions. Of course, Sheldon’s family and friends have no idea about what transpired between my brother and Sheldon other than what Sheldon has told them; and from what I have read, Sheldon has told his friends/family nothing but lies, making it impossible for those close to Sheldon to understand what really transpired here. Of course, I was intimately involved in what transpired from the start to the finish, but did not get involved here, on this website, until now. Unlike Sheldon’s family and friends who had no first-hand knowledge about the events in question but still felt not only the need to post here, but also felt it was an appropriate forum in which to threaten my brother. For these specific actions, you, your friends/family should be ashamed of yourselves!
Please don’t continue posting telling people that you are a “great business man”, “great husband”, “great friend” and “great father”- based on your track record no one would believe any of these statements to be true, furthermore, if these accolades were true, you, Sheldon would not be making these types of statements about yourself, Sheldon customers (not his friends), Sheldon’s wife, and Sheldon’s kids would be making these utterances, none of which have posted anything here. In fact, the only family member to post anything on this site was Sheldon’s cousin, who posted the following “I am Sheldon’s cousin, I was living with Sheldon at the time, stay away from Sheldon, what the people are saying about Sheldon is true, Sheldon owes lots of people money, none will get any amount that matters back, Sheldon may try and give small amounts back. Sheldon is his own worst enemy. I am still trying to collect money from Sheldon going on 4 years.” – Clearly, the only relative of Sheldon’s to write/post anything on this website is Sheldon’s cousin who lived with Sheldon during the period of time Sheldon was impersonating a licensed contractor and stealing thousands of dollars from a significant number of hardworking families and this cousin provides a clear warning to anyone reading his post (not coincidentally the identical warning my brother Dean provided to anyone who may have read Dean’s original 18-page post), telling everyone STAY AWAY FROM SHELDON!
As I have outlined above, while over the last 10-12 years Sheldon has been directly or indirectly involved with the criminal courts, the bankruptcy courts, or the Small Claims courts either because Sheldon has continued with his life of crime or because Sheldon has been incapable (Sheldon claimed in court that he has no money to pay for his food or to put gas in his car so Sheldon could not afford to pay my brother Dean even a paltry $20/month toward his $15,000 court judgement/debt) or unwilling to pay a significant number of people (including my brother) or businesses the money he owes them. On the other hand, my brother Dean has been retired for a number of years, and Dean does not have a criminal rap sheet or for that matter even a driving ticket on his record and Dean does not owe anyone any money. Two statements that I am afraid Sheldon will not be able to utter for MANY years to come!
Before closing, I must address Sheldon’s ongoing mutterings in his posts about how awesome his life is and how happy he is now that he is retired. Sheldon can say whatever he wants as many times as he wants, as he does here with his posts, but that does not make what he says true, as anyone reading these posts understands. In fact, the more Sheldon over and over makes these ridiculous claims, the more it appears he is trying to “con us”, deceive the reader into believing Sheldon’s false narrative that Sheldon was an honorable business man that chose to retire after a successful career (don’t fall for this deception). Let me ask the reader this question, how is it possible for Sheldon to be leading an awesome life as Sheldon claims, when Sheldon tells you himself that he isn’t able to afford even the most basic of needs, like the ability to pay for his gas and food (as Sheldon told the judge on more than one occasion), let alone the financial wherewithal needed to support his wife and two young kids. As far as Sheldon being a retired business man, it appears to me the only thing Sheldon retired from was impersonating a licensed contractor (assuming Sheldon has in fact quit this criminal activity which I don’t know for sure). How can one retire when one can’t pay his debts, support his family or earn an honest living? One CAN’T! I suspect one would need others to pay for them just like one has done most/all of one’s life.
I have done my utmost to be straight forward and factual in my post here, and to my best of my ability I have refrained from the name calling, foul language and idle threats (that Sheldon and his family and friends have consistently utilized throughout each of their posts to try and intimidate my brother Dean into not pursuing/collecting the $15,000 court judgements that Sheldon owes him), but I MUST respond to Sheldon calling my brother Dean “pathetic” because it is so hypocritical of Sheldon to do so. Anyone reading this post should be 100% crystal clear that there is only one pathetic party here, and that person is Sheldon Hirsch, the person:
1. who began not paying his debts to a variety of people and businesses since way back around 2010.
2. who has stolen tens of thousands of dollars from at least a dozen or more people (who all felt the need to post on this web site to warn others about Sheldon’s criminal actions).
3. who stole money from a single mother raising a child with a disability (read this person’s earlier post on this website where she states in her own words how Sheldon stole her money).
4. who has been in the Bankruptcy courts from 2014-2019 to repay the debts he has failed to pay as he previously agreed.
5. who has (4) misdemeanors on his criminal record/rap sheet.
6. who was prosecuted and convicted for the exact identical crimes (including impersonating a licensed contractor) on two separate occasions.
7. who has agreed to accept and then did not honor his Plea Agreement(s) with the DA’s office.
8. who has agreed to pay my brother Dean $200/month starting in May of 2021, and to date has not paid a penny of the amount he agreed to pay.
9. who claims he (the “great business man”) is “retired” and is going to have an “awesome life” but the person can’t even afford to pay $20/month toward the $15,000 in the court ordered judgements he owes my brother Dean.
10. who claims he takes the “high road” but the substance of his posts on this website clearly indicate he spends the majority of his posts name calling, threatening, cussing and for apt of a better description just plain throwing a childlike tantrum.
11. where all the objective evidence conclusively establishes his guilt (and the person has been prosecuted by the DA’s office for these crimes and agreed to a Plea Agreement to pay my brother back), and this person still claims he is “innocent” and did no wrong.
I did not respond to most of Sheldon’s juvenile name calling in his various posts because there was no need to do so, but I had to respond to this one instance because it was such an egregious example of Sheldon’s deceitfulness that I felt I needed to expose this lie for exactly what it was, an out and out lie. The Oxford dictionary defines the word “pathetic” as “miserably inadequate; of very low standard” and uses the word in the following sentence as an example: “he’s a pathetic excuse for a man”. Of course, Sheldon has not provided the reader with objective or even subjective reasons in his post(s) for why he labeled my brother Dean “pathetic” other than Dean was trying to collect the money Sheldon owes him, and that Dean warned others about Sheldon’s criminal behavior, neither of which has anything to do with being “pathetic”. On the other hand, the reader can clearly see how Sheldon (or anyone for that matter) who is accurately described by the examples given in numbers 1-11 above might/would be labeled “pathetic”. In fact, after one reads the descriptions in numbers 1-11 above and determines these statements accurately describe Sheldon Hirsch, one would most likely arrive at the only possible conclusion, that “Sheldon is a pathetic excuse for a man”.
In closing, I suggest you, Sheldon, do the right thing, PAY your debts to my brother Dean and honor your commitments!

Dean Sodos,
As friends and relatives of Shel we have decided to step in and let you know we are watching you.
We know the whole story as Sheldon was very honest with us.
In your long, imaginative dissertation you skewed facts.
You Exaggerated and you left out all the important things when it came to having Sheldon help you on your project.
We know that you sabotaged the project and meddled, interfered and otherwise screwed everything up.
Sheldon would speak to you personally, but being this is a legal matter,
YOU BOTH WERE INSTRUCTED TO NOT COMMUNICATE WITH ONE ANOTHER.
A RULE WHICH YOU HAVE VIOLATED.
We are now helping Sheldon out, and are fully pursuing a LIABLE AND SLANDER LAWSUIT AGAINST YOU as well as other legal actions.
IF YOU THINK WE'RE JOKING , JUST WAIT UNTIL YOU GET A CEASE AND DESIST LETTER FROM OUR ATTORNEY.
You have erroneously overstepped your rights and boundaries , and we are going to put a stop to it!
In your most recent post, you used name calling, calling Sheldon a coward, and more lies and insults.
You Have NO IDEA what a great person Sheldon is.
While Sheldon is abiding by the court order you are not.

Again, you have overstepped your boundaries, but it stops now.
Dean Sodos, WE ARE WATCHING YOU!

The Negative posts by the person here with initials D.S. are Falsely Exaggerated.
When someone goes all out in an attempt to slander your name and uses False information and makes false Claims and false assumptions, then the information that person has posted should be taken with a grain of salt.
In fact, I believe that this person is in violation of a court order regarding contacting me. I will be consulting with my attorney regarding this matter.
I can say that the issues that Precipitated our overall issues were a direct result of Problems and interference on his end completely.
First of all he kept rescheduling our work because of delays he was having.
Then ,when his cabinets finally arrived, there were a lot of mistakes and issues with his order from the manufacturer. He took it upon himself to order his cabinets and as a result there were many problems.
Then, as we were working through the problems, he decided that he wanted to be hands on with the installation. Arising in more problems, set backs and other issues.
I believe that I and my helpers bent wayyyyy over backwards to try to accommodate D.S. and all of his idiosyncrasies. Up to the point when he wanted to take over EVERY ASPECT of the Project.
It was then, and only then that I Decided that enough was enough.
I honestly believed at that point that there was nothing I/we could do to please D.S. and that I wasn’t going to participate in jumping through any more hoops for this person.
That’s It!

Sheldon:

In your most recent posts here, you indicate that you are taking care of your obligations and that you want to repay all those people that you stole money from; but you want those that you have paid back to update their post accordingly. You then ask all the people from the below noted posts that you have stolen money from to provide/post an update as to the status of where you stand regarding the repayment of these debts, so that your "legal team" can contact these individuals and make things right. Although you are acutely aware where you stand relative to the debts owed to us (my wife and I), but since others are not, as you requested, below is an update on where you stand relative to paying the money you owe us (my wife and I):

1. I, Dean Sodos have been awarded a $10,000 Small Claims Judgement against you, Sheldon Hirsch, and as you are acutely aware, to date you have not paid me one penny of this $10,000 judgement you owe me. You, Sheldon Hirsch did not even show up at the Small Claims hearing to contest this case, I expect because you are a coward through and through.

2. In addition to the above noted judgement, you, Sheldon Hirsch, have agreed to pay my wife and I restitution pursuant to your agreement with the District Attorneys office in Alameda County. You are way behind in your payments, to date you have paid my wife and I a total of $800 (which amounts to about $400 a year, since the DA’s office made this agreement with you back in January of 2019 and I am writing this post as of January 2021), less than 1/5 of the $4,276 you agreed to pay us in restitution. At this rate of repayment, approximately $400 a year, it will take you more than 8 more years to fully repay the restitution and another 25 years or so to pay the small claim judgement of $10,000 in full (see #1 above). Rest assured, I plan on collecting or hiring a collection agency to collect this $10,000 judgement in a much more expedient time frame.

Hopefully, your "legal team" will contact me to take care of these debts as you indicate they will, but I doubt that will happen for two reasons. First, as far as I know you don't have a "legal team", and never did, unless you are referring to the public defender as your “legal team” (after all, you have come to court on more than one occasion claiming undue hardship, that you were so poor that you couldn't make any payment or even a modest payment toward the restitution you owed to us [we have not received a penny from you since 5/11/20], but I am to believe you have the funds to hire and pay for a "legal team"). And two, if you wanted to pay the debts you owed my wife and I, you would have done so by now (or made a more concerted effort to do so). It has been two years since you, Sheldon made the agreement with the DA's office to pay us restitution and I believe it has now been more than three years since you stole our money!

Anyone else that is owed money by Sheldon Hirsch should contact the District Attorney in their county and complete the applicable paperwork/report so the DA's office can assist you in getting your money back from Sheldon, otherwise I expect your chances of being paid back are somewhere between slim and none. Please note that I live in Alameda County so the District Attorney's office in this county is already dealing with Sheldon Hirsch relative to the restitution he owes my wife and I.

I would be interested in communicating with anyone that was paid (anything) by Sheldon Hirsch from 2/1/2019 to the present as “payback” for work that was not performed or products that were not provided. I would also be happy to respond to any questions that any of you may have (you can contact me at [email protected]).

Nightmare year or not, it doesn't negate your obligations and responsibilities. Customers want a resolution or a workable solution, NOT one excuse after another or worst yet, promises without actual follow-through. This just makes people MAD, MAD, MAD!

I'd like to speak with you, I can be reached at [email protected]. Please see my most recent post above.

I would be very interested in speaking with you, please see my recent post above. I can be contacted at [email protected].

Yep he just did exactly the same thing to us for $2700! Now I'll be filling a lawsuit against him! Did you get an address for him by any chance? Total scam artist!

Curious to know if you got your money back (if so, did he pay it off monthly or in a lump sum) and if you were paid back when did you receive the payments. I can be contacted at [email protected]. Thanks in advance!

Wish I would have seen this before doing business with him. He came through with one house and then took a deposit for another but I have yet to see the carpet or installation. He just keeps stringing me along. Any luck with the DA? He didn't use either of those names just his own now advertising on craigslist. He says he's going to pay me next week.

I'd like to communicate with you, please see my recent post above, I can be contacted at [email protected].
