My family paid Rs. 55,000 to a local fabricator in Panjim for window grills in our new flat. We have a check payment receipt and written confirmation from him. But now, he’s gone missing! We can’t find him at his house in Goa. What legal options do we have to get our money back?

You have a strong case for recovering the money. File a police complaint for cheating and criminal breach of trust, which will be investigated. Additionally, you can file a civil suit in a Goa court for the recovery of Rs. 55,000.
