Todaro Notary - Small claims in Franklin County link

Well, no redeeming from Todary Notary. We said to each other Saturday night we would call each other Monday. I called Todaro and left a VM and I called the title company Direct Settlements and got the usual run around that everyone is in a meeting. Todaro said a check should be to me by today....no check. Folks, this is simple stuff and it does not take more then 15 minutes to looking into weather someone has been paid or not from the title company. So for those who are owed money by Todaro Notary here is the link for small claims in Franklin County, OH:

For those who need to make a claim by Direct Settlements of Pittsburg, PA, here is the link to the court house in Alllegheny County, PA.

Closing agents and Notaries must take a stand and no longer be used to do work and not get paid. We do a service for the community and should be compensated properly.

We must stand up and no longer except closings for less the $100!! Those signing services that only pay $50, $60 or anything less then $100 need to get a wake up call today!!! $100 for e-doc's for a closing 5 miles away is the lowest any closing should ever pay. Inflation is coming and if people in the industry do not adapt, more people will be underpaid or unpaid and go out of business. This is a For Profit business, it’s a not a Non Profit business.

I had drafted a demand letter for United Lender Services Corp, Pittsburgh, PA but they paid before I had a chance to send the letter but here's 3 of the 7 entities I planned to notify about non-payment:

Attorney General

Pennsylvania Office of Attorney General
Tom Corbett, Attorney General
16th Floor, Strawberry Square
Harrisburg, PA 17120

Secretary of State

Pennsylvania Dept. of State
Professional Compliance Office
P.O. Box 2649
2601 North Third Street
Harrisburg, PA 17105-2649

Insurance Commissioner:

Joel Ario, Insurance Commissioner
Pittsburgh Regional Office
Room 304, State Office Bldg.
300 Liberty Ave.
Pittsburgh, PA 15222

Since Direct Settlement Services is in Pittsburgh, PA, thought the contact info could be useful for collection processes. The other four entities included in the demand letter I planned to notify of non-payment: My attorney, the lender, Pennsylvania BBB and the of course ALL the forums/boards.

They're in Cleveland - so it's Cuyahoga County...

Franklin County is for Columbus, not Cleveland.
