Tenant Lawsuit Against Paint
Hi, I'm a new landlord and several days ago my tenant had asked me that the white paint of an exterior wall on front of the house and exterior wall of the house next to the driveway was peeling off. Today I went to get white paint and paint the exterior wall on the front of the house. The tenant asked if he needs to move his car in the drive way. I said no. Later I moved to white paint the exterior wall of the house next to the driveway. Because this is my first time painting exterior walls and his car was parked on the driveway, some of the paint (blemish) was blown by wind and stuck onto his car. He later discovered it while I was still painting and said I got white paint over his new car. He is now furious and decided to file a lawsuit against me for the paint on his car. What should I do?
