Complaint: It’s amazing that a company can get away with it for so long, but Robert J Sevi (AKA Roberto) and company has been deliberately failing to pay subcontractors in whatever way they can with full knowledge and intent before calling them for work. However it does look like the courts have finally caught up with him, according to the Seminoleclerk.org website he is getting sued on a corporate level as of 2012, which will be grounds to dismiss his contractor’s license if that suit is successful. Here’s a copy and paste of all the cases against this company name (he has two other companies). Case #tLitigantt 2005SC004056tROMAN ROADS INCtD 2007SC002917tROMAN ROADS INCtD 2008CA003382tROMAN ROADS INCtD 2009CA002924tROMAN ROADS INCtD 2009CA008812tROMAN ROADS INCtD 2010CA003933tROMAN ROADS INCtD 2010CC001838tROMAN ROADS INCtD 2012CA000809tROMAN ROADS INCtD These are just the ones filed under his paving company’s name, he has several with his own name, and his other company’s name listed. To any and all concerned if you receive a phone call from him for labor work and you have come here to check out his company first before working for him, you should contact the Seminole County Sheriff’s office first or at the very least, the State Attorney’s office, who is well aware of his activities to date. It is our assertion that anyone doing business with him demand full payment up front for any labor, normally you can request up to 50% by law, but anytime a company is involved in this much litigation, there’s no reason the state or Florida’s DBPR would deny you’re right to full payment in advance. The owner of this company has a bit of a personality issue as well, when you begin a job for him he isn’t very courteous and treats subcontractors as if they’re all grunt laborers, even if you’re a fully seasoned installer yourself with your own company. We were about to start an installation for him when, after preparing the job, we took lunch and I did some checking online, (after meeting him and realizing there was something wrong with his behavior), we both concluded that it would be a good idea to ask for a deposit and full payment on the work already performed. I was immediately told my services would not be needed. The bill has yet to be paid, it has been just over 30 days this morning so I will file suit this morning at the clerk’s office in Sanford. Also, his other company is called “Roman Empire Builders”” and he has several different variations of his full legal name
