  3. Dishonest Concrete Company Deconstructed By Rokita For Ripping Off Hoosier Consumers

 

Owner ordered to pay nearly $350K in restitution, banned from industry 

Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita has taken down another group of businesses engaged is shady practices that violate the standards that Hoosier consumers have a right to expect. 

This time, it’s a home-improvement contractor who allegedly tried running off with hundreds of thousands of dollars collected from hard-working homeowners without providing the anticipated services. 

“Here in Indiana, we won’t tolerate businesses that collect payment and then fail to do the work they promised,” Attorney General Rokita said. “We will always work to hold accountable businesses that violate the trust placed in them by hard-working Hoosiers.” 

Attorney General Rokita and his Consumer Protection team won a combination judgment of both civil penalties and restitution totaling $341,006.81 on behalf of numerous Hoosiers duped by Quest Concrete LLC and Cobraro & Company LLC — doing business as Quest Exteriors. These are an intertwining network of “home improvement” contractors that allegedly improved nothing but the businesses’ own financial situations.  

Attorney General Rokita also secured a permanent injunction that bans from the construction industry Michael Gossett, the head of both LLCs, and all primary affiliates — including agents, representatives, employees and successors involved with ripping off Hoosier consumers. 

Rokita commends Deputy Attorney General Tamara Weaver for her hard work in removing Quest Concrete and their affiliates from the Indiana marketplace and for helping to win the nearly $350,000 restitution order from the court.
