Contractor agreed to yard landscaping. I gave him $500 down and he never returned

Shawns Landscaping took my money and never performed the service. I have all of the communications shared between us. I have the contract, however I did not get reimbursed for the $500 I put down for the contracted service

User's recommendation: Always check out referrals or references.
