Branko Milic, an electrical, plumbing, and HVAC contractor servcing the Chicago area, took over $11,000 of my money for a furnance and heating installation project and then took off without doing much of anything. He performed little of the contracted work (less than $2,000 worth) and left my building without heat.
In July 2011 I paid Branko Milic a total of $11,300 for all parts, labor, and installation of four new gas furnaces and ductwork for a heating system for the 4 unit building located at 13200 Old Western Avenue in Blue Island, IL.
Unfortunately, I paid Mr. Milic according to his contact -he demanded most of the funds upfront.
Branko Milic repeatedly failed to honor our contract and only performed a minimal amount of work. Branko Milic did not refund any of my funds, even though he failed to provide any of the four (4) new high efficiency furnaces I purchased from him to be installed.
He has admitted to not performing the work and to not purchasing the 4 furnances, but he did nothing to rectify the situation.
Through out 2011 I repeatedly contacted Mr. Milic and he made a variety of excuses why the work had not been done: he a was too busy, lack of money, martial problems, etc., but he always gave promises to perform this work yourself at a future date. However, months passed and he made no effort whatsoever to perform this work.
As I had the misfortune to find out, Branko Milic has repeatedly failed to honor his contracts and he has more than a dozen past legal judgements against him. If you don't believe me, go to the Cook County Clerk website and search "Branko Milic" under defendant and you'll see the long list of others who have been rip-off.
This is NOT a case of a contractor who has had a few tough projects he couldn't finish. Rather this is a repeated fraudster that knows once he has the job he can walk away with the customers' money. At one point, when I demanded that he perform the work or give me back my money, he told me: "sue me!" Which I did.
In 2012 I bought my case to Cook County small claims court and in 2013 I won a judgement for $9,190 against Branko Milic (which is almost the $10,000 maximum allowed in small claims court).
Hiring and paying Branko Milic was a terrible mistake. I hope no one else has the misfortune of doing business with this fraudulent contractor. There are so many good workers out there, please avoid Branko Milic!
He goes by a variety of names: Branco or Branko and Milic and Bilic.
