My story is a long one, but to keep it short, Bob Pearson and his wife, Jeanie Pearson, of Dallas, Texas asked me to invest in their company. They showed me all sorts of financial statements that made it look as though they company was doing well.

Well, you can see their site is down...
After almost a year of excuses, I finally asked for my money back as none of the things they promised happened. You can imagine what happened next....they quit taking my calls. They changed their phone number and moved the office.
I found this today and I am just sick:

It appears that this is a habit for these two scammers. I am just heartbroken and so very mad at myself. I had no idea that I was dealing with professional scammers. I guess that's how people do it though - they wouldn't make any money at it if they weren't convincing.
I don't know what to do next. The amount of my investment is too large for small claims court which means I will have to hire an attorney.
Anyone have any suggestions of a way I can get my money back without spending thousands on legal fees? Honestly, they have broken me financially with all their stories of family illnesses and accidents.
