My question involves business law in the state of: Mississippi
I recently received a letter from an attorney seeking payment for water damage to a home where I installed the new plumbing. The work was done almost 6 years ago. A plumbing permit was obtained and all work passed inspection. The damage to the home was caused by 2 finishing nails that struck the water line. The leak apparently started while they were out of town for a few days and caused $118,000.00 in damages (according to the homeowner). I have general liability insurance and have turned over all the information I have concerning the job. Has anyone here ever encountered a situation like this? Or does anyone have an opinion on who should be held responsible?
