On Monday, we won our lawsuit against Carmel Exteriors (aka Indianapolis Roofing). It was stressful and expensive and awful, but we won.
After several months of waiting, we were finally granted a judgment against Carmel Exteriors (currently going by "Indianapolis Roofing"), a company run by Dylan Casey West and his wife, Quanesha (Nesha) Shane West (Kyles). The Court has sided with us, and I'm not worried about his threat to "deploy legal responses that you couldn't imagine" if we post a review. The truth is not libel.
My main concern now is protecting other people from putting their homes and finances in jeopardy by working with these people. According to the Indiana Secretary of State website, they have filed for TWENTY-EIGHT assumed business names in Indiana, and are going by another one of those names (Indianapolis Roofing) since we filed our lawsuit. This is all public record.
One of the main things that reeled us in were the dozens of positive reviews online. Thorough research and background checks have shown us that many of the "five star reviews" for Carmel Exteriors (now Indianapolis Roofing) were by their family members, people who live out of state or those who could not have hired them, as they don't own property.

Stay informed, and stay safe. Research beyond reviews, as they are not always reliable. read more
