    Is It Best To Meet With An Attorney Annually

    Thanks for the help. I was told that it was best to let an attorney handle this in order to ensure there are no hiccups. About the taxes, I thought that small businesses that did their own taxes was a red flag to the IRS.

    Mechanic Damaged My Car

    Thanks Mighty, Would you recommend that I call an attorney before I go to small claims court in order to tell him/her the entire story, get his opinion about the case and get some suggestions as to whether or not I should pursue and how to pursue if I choose? I only know one attorney and he is...

    Mechanic Damaged My Car

    Hi Zigner, Do you think that it would be prudent to hire an attorney to help me through the small claims process including the collection of the money if awarded? I would like to put this fiasco to a close and do not mind paying the extra expense if it means saving me the time and hassle to...

    Mechanic Damaged My Car

    Hey Mightymoose, I gave him plenty of time to repair the problem. He has promised me several times that he would make it right. Always backing out of it at the final moment. Unfortunately I do not have anything but the invoice. He did not write on it anything about the engine damage either. It...

    Mechanic Damaged My Car

    Hello, Hope this note finds everyone well. So I took the vehicle to another mechanic to figure out what exactly the damages are. He said like all of the other mechanics that it would cost a couple thousand dollars just to tear the engine down and get to the root of the problem. I guess I do not...

Another mechanic quoted $4,000.00 just to replace the head which he says needs to...
