1. Yes the foreclosure will stop if you get current with payments. The foreclosure could also stop if you can negotiate payment terms with the bank for something less than the outstanding balances and the remainder on some schedule. Whether you need to pay both depends on who's foreclosing...

Exactly what did these papers say? Did they misrepresent factual information about the car's condition? If not, I am with fitz. The law expects that parties to an arm's-length transaction will take steps to inform themselves before they purchase.

I suspect you will wind up being liable, but I would like to know what the mistake was. This sounds like a simple clerical error in the original statement that they are now correcting. It's not like that would have damaged you, other than leading you to believe the purchase would be cheaper...

Legally, he is obliged to complete the contract for the agreed-on price. If he is not agreeable to completing the job for the $2000 still owing, he is in breach of contract. He might already be in breach of contract by not using the money supplied to buy the materials. So you sue him. You've...

"Power to act" is not particularly a legal term. It's not like you need a POA. (Although, at her age, that would probably be a very good idea anyways.) You just need her say-so. If this can't be resolved without a lawsuit, then you would probably need some type of authorization to act as her...

How much will the remaining materials cost? If it's $1500 or so, maybe you and he can agree that you will purchase the remaining materials and he will install them at no charge to you. You wind up getting your roof for the agreed-upon price. Alternatively, you sue him. There is a good...

You've got a home inspector's statement that it should be inspected by a licensed HVAC technician. On the other hand, you have your own opinion. I know which one I would trust. I also know which one a court would find more persuasive in the event the buyer walked and you tried to sue them for...

I disagree that it is your debt - interceding on someone's behalf does not make you responsible for their debt. It's pretty clear the money was loanded to the brother and his wife, not to you. I assume there were no issues of your mother's capacity or undue influence that might implicate you...

LOL this is also what happens when you use sarcasm on message boards. :) After years using unlocked phones on my GSM provider, I switched to Telus (a CDMA network here in Canada). Better rate plans, but I'm tied to their equipment. Not sure I like the trade.

Can your husband prove that, at the time they told him this, they knew he could not apply for at least a year? To put it another way - why is it he can't apply for a year? Is that company policy or regulation? Was it in place at the time? If not, I suspect you will face a steep uphill battle...

When did this happen? I'm guessing you're currently past the one-year limitation period set out on the bag? Before looking at whether non-compliance voids the one-year limitation period set out on the bag, I would be curious whether the one-year period is valid at all. Generally, it is...

I don't actually read that as "might". :) The agreement is pretty clear that you are required to repay all or some portion of the bonus if you leave within two years. The rub is, you were never presented with or agreed to any document setting out exactly what proportion of your signing bonus...

The clause is likely valid. You and the securities firm were free to agree to pretty much whatever you wanted, and you agreed to it. The contract is there to govern your relationship so long as you both agree to continue it.

It is their duty to take reasonable precautions. Exactly what those are is open to speculation. It might be worthwhile to go for a free/cheap initial consult with a personal injury attorney.

Don't pay. If they ask you for payment, advise them that their copy of the lease is fraudulent, show them a copy of yours, and tell them that if they try to rely on their copy of the lease you will press criminal charges for fraud. If they sue you for payment, press criminal charges for fraud.

"Personal injury" usually means injury to your physical or mental health. So I would say your attorney is correct. There is no personal injury here. I would be more concerned about the damage to your credit. You might be able to sue for that. Unfortunately, as I understand it, these sorts of...

An easement of necessity might arise if your only way to the public road was through your neighbour's property. As I understand it, neither of you have access to the public road except by building a bridge. So an easement of necessity probably does not arise - you and he are both equally free...

I'm a little more sceptical. Does the park have a duty to ensure people don't slip on the wet plastic steps? Did they discharge the duty, maybe by posting a "Caution, slippery wet step" sign? I've been on many theme park water rides and the staff makes sure I'm buckled in after I'm on, but...

More information, please. How did the numbers get mixed up?

Settlements are based on knowledge, and more knowledge is always better. But whether a second opinion will help you get a better settlement depends on what the opinion says. Nobody here can predict that. Medically, if you think your doctor's treatment is not helping and another doctor would...
