I don't know if workers compensation is applicable based upon the statement "off work hours" with regard to the weight lifting. If you were injured in the gym and couldn't perform work in a stock room job, this would not be covered under workers compensation. As to whether you have disability...

One other thought is the mention of "moral turpitude" which is a term most would not use except when immigration status is in issue. I'm wondering whether that is the real concern here.

Many attorneys suggest not paying a civil demand as a result of the odds against being prosecuted for what usually amounts to several hundred dollars. In your case it's actually a fraction of the amount I've seen. If you want peace of mind, you may be able to have a compromise agreement either...

I've done both professionally - website development and the legal agreements to which you're referring. @hrforme is absolutely right in saying that this is absolutely not something you should entangle yourself. The legal issues an attorney would cover include compliance as well as liability and...

Try to put yourself in the bank's shoes. Why would anyone simply agree to give you $15,000 - because you insist you can't pay for what you purchased? And I agree about retaining an attorney and can only wonder what an attorney will claim they can do for you as you don't dispute owing the...

Filing restraining orders? I don't know who has the time and money for petty issues. In most instances these arise as a result of nonpayment of rent or other monetary deficiencies. As has been suggested above, if rent isn't being paid the best course of action is usually just pursuing an...

The truth is that we have no idea what is happening with your case with USCIS. Your immigration attorney is in the best position and should be able to give you an honest answer as to what is taking such a long time. Considering that Donald Trump is now the president of the United States and he...

Credibility is for the judge or jury to decide. Is he going to perjure himself regarding handing out used martial arts belts for Taekwondo promotions? Doubtful. And then there is the Kukkiwon fee - the bogus scholarship paper. Just be organized and all those fluffy honors won't mean anything. It...

The belting practice is absurd and embarrassing. The WTF registration you paid seems to be fraud. If you were told that it was the fee for the WTF registration, that is what it was supposed to be earmarked to pay. That could be a separate claim in itself and you may be better off filing multiple...

I'll respond in greater detail later. Posting your honest, accurate opinion of facts is not actionable. There is no defamation claim without a false statement. The mistake many make is greatly exaggerating claims to the point where they depart from opinion and move towards a false statement...

I'll respond to the rest but this one has me incredulous. Used martial arts belts? You can buy a quality belt for well under $20 and given the cost of promotion tests, which I'm confident you were charged, there is absolutely no reason whatsoever not to have brand new karate / taekwondo /...

A couple of things. In several instances companies like the one you describe are the front for the martial arts school not wanting to do the dirty work of debt collection. Unfortunately some can be absolutely ruthless and unreasonable because they really don't care about the "customer" because...

In addition, what state is the school located?

I have modified the limits so you can upload the attachment. Coincidentally I believe that I have seen this contract before. The back of the contract may help but I'll need to review both sides. I'll explain after taking a quick look.

I'm very sorry to hear about your story and bad experience with the martial arts, specifically Taekwondo. I truly hope this doesn't damper your spirits towards this amazing martial art that has given me and many of my friends and colleagues so much. This is extremely strange to me to hear for a...

LOL... registering hands as lethal weapons? I'm a certified fourth degree black belt in Taekwondo and the only registration I've had to do was with the Kukkiwon in Korea in order to obtain a really cool certificate and identification card. I almost feel like answering that I can't wear gloves in...

I'm not sure how overstaying somehow makes it easier for him to become a citizen. Are you a citizen? You talk about possibly marrying the father of the child it seems you intend to carry to term - but at this time you're not sure? What type of work visa did your boyfriend have? It is possible...

That's a painful lesson. As stated above, it's the agreement you made without realizing you made it as it seems you didn't completely read what you signed. I remember upgrading my guitar many years ago and it cost me around $650 or so. The value to a musician of their instrument is obviously not...

The rider was found guilty. Having a hearing in person at the Transit Adjudication Bureau in Brooklyn is the only hope for reason. But once you admit that you didn't have the Select Bus Service ticket to ride they appear to treat it as a prima facie case of you being guilty unless you can prove...

Agreed on many accounts. As you know, even in balmy New York City you need to warm up the car in the winter for a few minutes if you want to avoid problems. But I think their issue was that the car is unlocked. It would seem that they expect vehicle owners to have the doors locked and use a...
