When you engage a contractor to perform work, a contract exists whether oral or written. If one party breaches, the other may seek compensation informally and may sue if an amicable resolution is not reached.
You may not only sue for breach of contract, but it is often advisable to consider a claim under the Unfair Trade Practices and Consumer Protection Law which affords attorneys fees and treble damages.
I trust this answers your question, but do not hesitate to call or email with any questions.
