How do you handle a contractor who was suppose to finish a job in 3 months which is now a YEAR and he is basically saying he messed up the rest of your budget money?  I want to cut him off my job and file a lawsuit what steps should I follow in New Jersey also any referrals of the kind of lawyer I need please list thanks.

I do not know anything about NJ, but some states require that licensed contractors are bonded.  IF NJ has a bond requirement you can go after his bond.  No attorney needed, in the states I have worked with, you file through the state licensing board.  Going for a contractor's bond does get their attention.
