    Employer changes before getting the H1B visa

    Key words here: "sponsored by current employer". If you switch employers, you will have to have switch the sponsor. ;) While it should be easier to do than starting from scratch, you still need to follow the USCIS H-1B Transfer Process.

    Defending red light camera tickets

    I That's because you can channel your inner Bay State girl. ;) So it seems normal.

    Defending red light camera tickets

    You do this by attempting to show that you could not safely stop before the light turned red. My understanding is that when the light turns yellow you are supposed to prepare to stop if you can safely do so. (Granted, it's been close to 20 years since I last read the NY state driver's manual.)...

    Pay for parking with ParkNYC app, get a summons for not displaying receipt!

    Or, let someone else be the guinea pig beta tester until the system works correctly consistently.

    Speeding tickets from NYC cameras that are near 10 mph or above speed limit

    Kinda challenging in a 20 mph zone. But other than that, agree.

    Penske truck obliterated. Who is going pay for this mess?

    Saw this video. Put your beverage down before watching. Clearly the guy renting the truck violated the terms of the lease agreement. So, legally, what sort of trouble is this Darwin Award honorable mention nominee in for?

    Felons,guns

    I agree that "people on line" can be incorrect. Sources that are trustworthy are include the government (federal, state) and accredited law schools but can difficult for laymen to decode. While I have not researched this subject, I have noticed media outlets misrepresenting other legal issues...

    Divorce trying to keep property

    If you are concerned about your current lawyer, you should get a consult with 2 or 3 other lawyers/firms. If you find a substantial difference in what you hear, it may indeed be time to consider switching lawyers. Only you have the knowledge of whether the cost of switching lawyers has a...

    Landlord asking me to cut down trees.

    If you mowed all the lawn consistently, the volunteer trees wouldn't be there. (Norway maples, for example, are easily eliminated when they are under 6 inches tall. They're very invasive where I am, in the Northeast. I've easily pulled up over 100 this week.) While you had a verbal agreement...

    Can I sue someone who lived in another country?

    You are in dire need of inpatient care at a psychiatric facility.

    Can I sue someone who lived in another country?

    Here's the thing: all arguments are strengthened by actual proof. Like, a police report, or medical records. You didn't report it at the time. You didn't get medical attention at the time. The place where the injury occurred usually has jurisdiction. So, look up barristers in the area where...

    Can I sue someone who lived in another country?

    That's just an initial retainer. Your money could be better spent on a good therapist. You are very young and have very bad taste in would-be lovers. You need to find better ways of processing your feelings and move forward. Or you can channel this one hit wonder from the 80's:

    Can I do anything to fight a 21/30 notice sent to me by my landlord in Virginia?

    How thick are you? The issue is that you are pissing fight with your neighbor, competing to drown each other out, and making everyone else miserable. Stop it. Stop making excessive noise and you will stop being the problem. Get a white noise machine or noise cancellation earphones. Shape up...
