This is all the same guy who basically wanted to redesign something for free. If you provide the design instead of letting me design it and wait til a complete plan set has been drawn based on your design then decide you want to change the entire layout that YOU DESIGNED that is not correction people. Corrections involve mistakes made by the service provider. These are Amendments/Revisions/Redesigns not corrections which ARE NOT FREE especially after a plan set has been finalized with your review every step of the way. Then magically upon receiving an invoice for final payment after receiving a proof copy to show you they are complete yet you can't steal it and balk at paying me then and only then did you suddenly find fault with the work to avoid paying and want to rearrange the entire layout which you yourself designed. Maybe next time you will not attempt to play amateur architect instead of taking for granted that there are reasons we go to school and a bachelors in architecture takes 5 years instead of 4 like most fields of study. Also the fact that you say you tried to give an "inner city" architect a chance speaks to both your ignorance and closet racism. Inner city? Who told you I was from the "Inner city" I was a finalist on HGTV Design Stars, a top 40 under 40 award winner and have a long list of references from satisfied cooperative clients. I told you settle up on what was contracted and then we can move further but you're not going to invent more work everytime an additional payment is due. Contrary to your bigotry and beliefs all black people aren't gullible [censor] nor are are services supposed to be automatically discounted and our contracts open for debate everytime a payment is due just because you are black and you feel we should be grateful that a white anglo saxon male is willing to do business with us. Top of my class my entire academic career in my "non-inner" city schools I attended throughout my straight A student life. So having said that anyone that gives credence to any of your racist ignorant rant is just as ignorant and racist as you and can keep their projects as I can do without them and the nonsense that comes with.

********This complaint board page needs to be the FIRST THING that Google shows when somebody searches for Colin Broadus Lex the don. Maybe others can be spared the misery. SO I REPEAT :

WARNING: Colin Broadus (aka: Lex Da Don, Lex The Don, Colin Drew, Colin Drew Broadus, etc) is NOT an architect...unless he means someone highly skilled in the design & construction of pure bulls#t. What he is is a textbook SOCIOPATH. He exhibits every single trait on the diagnostic checklist:

- grandiose sense of self
- pathological lying
- lack of empathy
- superficially charming
- criminal or entrepreneurial versatility
- lack of remorse shame or guilt
- delusional in that they believe what they say actually becomes truth
- massive sense of entitlement

Before you "hire" Colin Broadus, look up 'Lex The Don' or 'Lex TBT Entertainment' on Google. Just in case the pages suddenly and mysteriously disappear, I am adding some screen shots of his many PUBLIC Facebook identities along with some of his photos and posts. You tell me: IS THIS AN ARCHITECT? This is the guy that showed up to my home. You would think a criminal would be a bit more discreet but...Colin isn't just a criminal. He's a sociopath.

STAY AWAY FROM LEX THE DON COLIN BROADUS COLIN DREW DESIGN GROUP -- YOU WILL BE ROBBED BLIND.

Just look at the self defense he puts up in response to the complaints in this forum - seems he has a whole lot of knowledge on how the legal system works. well of course he does. you have to learn the system in order to beat it time and time again.

There is a whole group of people right here on this site who would love to be able to file a legal claim against colin broadus. why is it that none of us have been able to do so? in fact, since several of us have spoken to one another already i'll bet we can file a class action — all we need is some real information from you sir:

*what is your legally registered business name, where exactly is your company registered, and what is the physical operating address of your office?*

Yeah, we'll keep waiting...

And who in their right mind would "share their real identity" or give specific details of their experience with him given they are dealing with colin broadus, a common criminal who was arrested on rape charges (article easily found online), who calls himself an architect and then brazenly posts pictures of himself all over social media posing as some gangster rap star. you're not fooling anyone anymore pal. take a seat.

Colin broadus is a nobody, a total zero with zero real talent who is funding a fantasy of being recognized as a real rap artist by ripping off people who actually work for a living. he's a soulless parasite and all you'll end up with is a load of stress and total financial loss with no recourse and nothing to show for it. even the police shook their heads in amazement at his game when I tried to file a report (unfortunately, there was nothing they could do, be warned). he's got it down pat, like every other bottom feeding con man... that is, until one day when karma will eventually send in the feds.

Of course, he will now just switch up his game and maybe send somebody else to your door in his place to pose as an architect (or whatever else) but make no mistake, avoid colin broadus lex da don. spread the word.

As I stated my name was taken already. Who is Jason Miles? I did not contract with him. You had the checks made out to Colin Drew Broadus and cashed for invoices for what ever company you use at the time.

I was accurate when I described how long you were late in providing any drawings, the inaccuracies in them, your never seeing the apartment, the demand for payment without providing client approved engineer signed Board and DOB ready drawings, and the court judgement against you.

Here's proof for any honest person. That you received the proof copy showing they were completed. Thus making final payment do as per our written agreement. So there you have it. Someone who I have had payment issues issues with from the very first due day expecting me to go ahead and send the copy without proof before receiving payment. Now you resort to lying and slander. Carry on as I always keep proof. Thank god for technology and screenshots

Colin Drew Broads is listed under several names including Colin Drew Designs & Co LLC. He contracted with me for a renovation in NYC in June of 2016, assuring me of signed by an engineer drawings within a few weeks and DOB approval with in 6 weeks. With multiple attempts to arrange visits, he never stepped in the apartment, said my measurements were good enough, produced 1 page of drawing months after promised with windows missing and demand more money. His responses as you can tell from the above are rambling rants that make him seem the victim. He has emailed that he is withdrawing from the project twice, but then shows up again with some incomplete work when he wants more money, maybe the rent is due.
After 7 months of dragging the project out without final signed customer approved drawings ready for Board and DOB submission, I sued in NYC Small Claims court and have a judgement against him. His response has been "I ain't giving you sh**." I hired another licensed architect and have the drawings ready in less than a month. Stay away. He does not act professionally, seems mentally unstable, and has a pattern of doing this over and over. Police reports are interesting, I wish I saw them prior to contracting.
