Hi Serenia,
It sounds like you haven't received a contract from the general contractor. Here are some steps you might consider:
- **Request in Writing**: Send a formal written request for the contract to the general contractor.
- **Review Arizona Law**: In Arizona, contracts can be enforced even if they are not in writing, but having a written contract is always better for clarity.
- **Consult an Attorney**: It may be helpful to consult with a legal professional to review your situation and advise on next steps.
