You will have to check with local law enforcement on that one. The last thing you want is to be in a battle with a place like that and have your car trapped there.
Where you went wrong was not getting everything in a written agreement that was reviewed by an attorney. It would be great if we cold trust everyone these days, but there are just to many scammers out there. It's really messed up, because it ruins things for the good people and shops.
Sorry I don't have any solid advice to offer you. Good luck.

I have documented everything and went back and gathered all emails between us. There is no agreement sent from him and I have not paid him yet. I don't think he is scamming I think with the changes that went on in his shop things were not conveyed to the new shop manager. Which I feel is not my fault. Thanks for your response.
