What can I do to get my money back the engine
Your question is not clear from what you stated but if you are claiming that there is a consumer law issue, you should contact the Office of the Attorney General of Virginia, Consumer Law Department in Richmond, VA and make a formal Complaint. They may take your case and prosecute your Complaint.
My tenants informed me back in March that they were looking for a new place to live. We proceeded to inform them that we would be listing our home in May. I mailed them a certified 30 day letter stating that they would need to be out by May 1st. As May approached they made me aware that they... Read more »
If the Landlord accepted a rent payment without reservation of rights, which will keep the date for the tenants to terminate the lease, the Landlord has accepted an extension for an additional 30 days of the lease.
I was actively having an asthma attack and I went to urgent care and they denied me treatment because I couldn't put on a mask due to my breathing difficulties. They told me that if I didn't put on a mask, I had to go elsewhere for medical attention. They told me their hospital systems... Read more »
Dear sir / ma'am:
I am so sorry about the poor care you received. Thankfully, it sounds like you didn't suffer a permanent injury as a result of their misdiagnosis - as you acted quickly to ensure correct care and treatment. As such, you would not likely have a financially viable... Read more »
When I requested to terminate my lease early, my property manager emailed me stating "The landlord has agreed to release you from your lease upon the following conditions.
1. *60 day notice, and provided at the time of said notice there is not a rental waiting list at the apartment... Read more »

He threatened to raise my rent if I quit him
There are two relationships involved in your reported situation. One is the employer-employee relationship. The other is the landlord-tenant relationship. I will only address the landlord-tenant relationship because I do not handle employment law matters. If you have a written lease, the landlord... Read more »

You need to consult with an attorney to assess your risks

You should send a letter or an email to your landlord and dispute the claims that you were smoking pot in the premises. If the landlord brings a court action against you, the landlord has the burden of proof by a preponderance of the evidence in order to win his case. You can ask your neighbor to... Read more »
Was not speeding, was not my fault. Rainy day couldn't stop fast enough. Everyone in my car was injured. Neck, back, leg and stomach.
Multiple vehicle accidents are more likely to have issues with coverage, conflicts of interest, and liability. It would be strongly advisable to retain experienced counsel.
Was not speeding, was not my fault. Rainy day couldn't stop fast enough. Everyone in my car was injured. Neck, back, leg and stomach.
The law says you need to drive at a speed that will allow you to stop if something happens ahead. You indicate you may have not been able to stop. That raises issues. You should not make any more statements, not discuss this online. The insurance on the car you were in may give you an attorney. If... Read more »
Is it legal for them to do that ? I specifically asked before leaving if I needed to be present for the inspection of my apartment and if everything was good (I had an automatic payment of my rent).
They told me I was all good and now 8 months later they ask me for a remaining balance of rent.
You should send an email back to the landlord and dispute the claim that you owe any additional rent. In Virginia, there is no specific law that addresses your issue. It may be that a Judge will have to decide the issue.
In Virginia, a landlord has no right to exclude a tenant from the premises during the lease term, even to show the premises to prospective tenants.
On my driving record it says I killed someone on a dui. I got a dui but I never killed anyone. What can I do to get it removed? Can I sue someone about this they are making me do a treatment session due to this.
This is may have been a clerical error and may be corrected by contacting the clerk of the court in which you were convicted.
My fiancé & I moved out of the apartment we shared with his mother a year ago, we put our notice in & were notified that we would not be removed from the lease until his mother showed proof of income to sign her own lease so she went on a month to month because she was still making... Read more »
In Virginia, a month-to-month tenancy is terminable on a written 30 day advanced notice. If the tenant(s) gave the proper written notice, then the month-to-month tenancy would be terminated and there are no additional responsibilities for the tenant, including paying rent.
Can I move without obligation to paying the remainder of rent if the noise complaint is unbearable?
Speaking with the landlord about an early out would be a first step.
In Virginia, constructive eviction is generally applied when there is physical damage to the premises, such as the roof caving in, that causes the tenant to not be able to live in the premises. Animal noise, by itself, would not be considered in Virginia a claim for constructive eviction.
I got caught doing 90 in a 70 in hopewell va. I am currently taking a driving class so I can take it to court is this Smart. I have +4 on my driving record and printed out my dmv record which has no tickets on it. I am also hiring a local lawyer to help me as well. I am freaking out I plan on... Read more »
It is smart to do the driving school. At that speed, if you were to hire a local attorney, you would not need to appear in court (the attorney could go on your behalf). The charge is a criminal misdemeanor, so you should hire an attorney, or at least seek legal advice. I strongly believe that an... Read more »

A Virginia attorney could respond best, but your post remains open for two weeks. You provided lots of detailed information. In reading your post, it looks like the central issue is eligibility of your son for a Special Education program... and a misdiagnosis was involved. If that is correct, one... Read more »
I was evicted in Dec 2020 but no order of possession was filed and case was dismissed. Can the new law apply to my case?
The Virginia Code Section that applies to your question is set forth below and pretty clear as to its procedures:
§ 8.01-130.01. (Effective January 1, 2022) Unlawful detainer; expungement.
A. If an action for unlawful detainer filed in general district court is dismissed or a... Read more »
