    Check Scam

    I would have to agree. I had this happen. Someone responded to an ad I have for a home guy asking me to hold on to it while he mails me a check. I was asking $300 for the gym. The check gets here and it is for $2,100. It is even a back fake, the ink was faded, and the signature was printed...

    Check Scam

    I researched their website and they actually ask you for your ssn and driver's license number when you report a crime! They ask you for information that can be use against you in a fraud scam in order to report a scam? I couldn't believe it actually. -Nick

    Check Scam

    If you know that a check you received for a product you sold online is part of a scam (the person writes the check for more money than the item cost and asks you to wire the overpayment back to them via western union), is there a government agency you can contact to report the crime? -Nick

    Body Shop Liability

    No comments? Hmm... I guess the question that I have is this; if the body shop charges a storage fee and will not let you take your vechicle to a more secure place until you can afford to pay said fee, are they not liable for the security of your vehicle while it is in their care? After all...

    Consumer Law, Warranties Car Repairs ineffective....fault still occuring!

    Have you tried returning to the shop that repaired your vehicle and talking to them about it? If they are honest people, perhaps they will take it in and at least find out what is really wrong. -Nick

    Small Claims/Jilted Ex

    First of all, if he is physically abusive to you, file a restraining order through your local court and send him to jail if he comes near you. Secondly, if there is no written contract stating you would help him with the payments, go to court and tell the judge your story. He is suing you; he...

    loss in small claims, what can and can't they do?

    If the business is a sole proprietorship, he is liable for any judgment. They can garnish him; take his tax refund, even personal property if it goes that far. The property must not be more valuable than the amount owed, and it has to be in his name if I recall correctly. As for a payment plan...

    Body Shop Liability

    Lakewood, WA I posted in another thread about an issue that my brother has been facing with his insurance company and getting them to pay out for a hit and run that totaled his car a few months ago. The plot thickens. He came home on leave over the holidays. When he got back to Ft. Lewis...

    tenant vs tenant

    I agree with Gail. Trying to sue this person will only waste your time and money. Just send the letter and get her out so you can have a new roommate move in. Best of luck. -Nick

    vehicle accident

    Small claims would be the way to go here. The problem is that once you have a judgment, it is your responsibility to collect on it. If the other person doesn't have the money to pay the judgment, you could garnish them. Just keep this in mind; you have to server papers to the defendant at...

    Fdcpa

    Gail, I see a reference in this article for ceasing telephone communication completely. What if a person wants to avoid being called at work? Shouldn't they just be able to write a letter to the creditor telling them when it is "inconvenient" to contact them? "However, a debt collector may...

    Fdcpa

    If you send a letter to a debtor telling them to only contact you between specific hours, on specific days, do they have to abide by your request? If yes, what action can be taken if they continue to call you at all hours? -Nick

I have interesting news for you... that is what it is like being a teenager. You are no different than other kids your...

    Property Removal

    You need to give him written notice. Send him a letter telling him that his stuff will be removed and sold to the public in 10 days if it is not removed. Certify the letter so you can prove he got it. -Nick

    Roomate Terminating lease/Evicting a Room-mate (sub leases a room)

    Correct me if I am wrong, but if he violated the terms of the lease, doesn't that give the landlord grounds to evict? I see a tenant who is creating a potentially harmful environment for an 8 year old boy by bringing drugs into the home. If it were me, I would kick his a** out to the curb and...

    polygamy

    She will likely have to file a standard divorce. In some cases, both parties don't have to agree to the divorce. There are steps she can take to simply dissolve the marriage. State laws will determine exactly what needs to take place here. Call your local Bar Association and ask for a list of...
