RJ Construction blames an ongoing legal dispute with the Arlington Independent School District for the bankruptcy filing, but former clients say they're the real victims.

"The best-case scenario when I started trying to get something done was to get my money back, but now that's not really important from all the stories I've heard," said Arlington resident Josh Usry."The best-case scenario is the community coming together to cast this out. This is not okay. This is Arlington. We shouldn't put up with this type of fraud."

Something felt off, and Usry was worried either the company wasn't up for the job or he was being scammed. He tried to halt the project and get some of their deposit back. "One of the things that we would recommend when you're doing that research is to get three different bids," said Amy Rasor, the Fort Worth regional director for BBB."By getting three bids, you can find out are they kind of in line with each other."Always get estimates in writing and never let any work begin without a written and signed contract.

"Robert Jordan is a good man who has tried everything possible to avoid being in this position," Hammond said."He is committed to doing everything in his power to make this right."
