I've worked with personal injury attorneys on a few cases and this case is almost certainly not going to a jury. I say so because what are the potential total amount of damages in question - even assuming you get past the time issue that you want to claim is a non-issue? Your injuries appear to...

Which articles would you like to read? This article is a synopsis of a child custody case with a Guardian Ad Litem involved that spanned several years. There will be a follow up since the epilogue to this legal nightmare is sadly no less disturbing. We're glad to help you if we can.

I just realized - the remainder of this conversation doesn't have anything to do with the original poster, who has now received a complete answer about whether a shoplifter can determine if they appear in the NMRA Retail Theft Database and other databases. The remaining conversation is off topic...

A couple of important points. Perhaps you were being expressive in sharing how important it was for you to find out the answer to your question. Sharing that a person is about to commit suicide unless they get this information comes across as emotional blackmail. I'm not saying this was your...

My sympathies and I can understand the trauma of having one stupid act affect you in a multitude of ways. That is still absolutely no excuse for the inappropriate ascii art and other comments. Here is how someone can find out if you are in the NMRA Theft Database. Q: What are NRMA's...

I empathize. When I was around 10 and up in the Catskills for the summer, I went on a hike to the local lake with a friend of mine. On the walk up the road there was a dog in a yard barking at us. We froze and then decided to walk slowly. The dog kept barking loudly but was still behind the...

Unfortunately it is probably not unlawful for the article writer to have published the article using your name. In general the press is not required by law to refrain from posting the name of a juvenile. The press uses reasonable discretion. What makes this issue odd is that the editor decided...

Ironically I'm dealing with condo and co-op issues right now. What you're heard is unfortunately true - there is usually no simple, cost effective solution. Retaining an attorney will probably be the likely next step. Unless there is an enforcement mechanism (look at the bylaws), it's difficult...

I don't see anything wrong with being up front and straight in business dealings and there is everything right about being upstanding. Make sure you've carefully considered what you're saying and representing before issuing any statement. I try to not think too much about people's frustrations...

Without more information it's impossible to answer your question. We can't determine whether you even have a cause of action against the agency. I'm sympathetic. In theory they are supposed to be efficient and help tenants against unruly landlords. Not all are competent - but we don't know the...

I thought I saw this question already answered. You can sue for both causes of action. However if you want to sue for discrimination you may want to speak to an attorney. Those are the types of lawsuits that demand more expertise.

I didn't read the entire thing but you seem to be on the right track. You're probably best off citing your lease if there is a provision for sublet (that it won't be unreasonably withheld.) Otherwise you're probably best off citing the law early on, right after the discussion with the landlord...

Or the potential for a bankruptcy filing could be significant leverage for a quick settlement of the suit against him (but will still leave the plaintiff to pursue the wife.)

It seems the details are in his other post. If I recall, he co-signed for the vehicle with his wife during marriage. While the vehicle was deemed to be in her sole possession under the divorce decree, his name remained on the title as a joint owner. He is claiming that is ownership interest is...

I know of many unpaid internships but apparently there is an even finer line drawn by the US Department of Labor in Fact Sheet #71: Internship Programs Under The Fair Labor Standards Act. When I skimmed and reviewed on my phone didn't realize the full extent of the work and how this completely...

Okay, now I see what you are talking about. You are talking about a motor vehicle accident concerning Florida's Dangerous Instrumentality Doctrine which concerns vicarious liability. It can result in harsh consequences. I don't know the length of time that your license might be suspended. But I...

So we are talking about Florida's dangerous instrumentality statute. The stringent nature of that law has been discussed here several times. However, you're not going to be able to simply dismiss the case entirely even if you believe you are correct on the law and the facts. As both my...

Even if the son has power of attorney over her financial affairs it is highly unlikely that this matter would even be taken to court. The amount of money is so small and the difficulty improving wrongdoing or another exceptional circumstance (such as incapacity) would be either extremely...

It's possible that the diagnosis on your car was correct. If you watch the movie My Cousin Vinny you will see a scene where the protagonist complains about mud in the tires. He describes a similar problem about the car shimmying on the road. If you only had half the tires serviced, it's possible...

You might not face eviction, which might not be possible unless there was a violation of the lease. But unless you have a renewal provision guaranteed, you will not be able to get an extension on your lease. In effect that would be accomplishing the same thing with an eviction just being sooner...
