This will need to get probated in probate court if it is in Connecticut. I recommend consulting with an experienced probate attorney as soon as possible.

If you ignore these notices they will eventually get a judgment against you. After that, they will garnish your wages, lien your property, and/or execute on your bank accounts. If you have not done so, you may wish to consult with an attorney. Good luck.

Is this best left to a lawyer?
answered on Aug 8, 2019
This is definitely best left to a lawyer. It is not the most complex aspect of litigation that you might attempt to tackle, but if you want this done properly, do not represent yourself. There are plenty of firms, including my own, that have experience and interest in pursuing this type of... View More
Need to sue my real estate attorney
answered on Jul 19, 2019
I would be very interested in knowing more about your case. How did your attorney commit malpractice?
The contract was made by an independent contractor on behalf of the LLC, and the order for services (playing the gig), required acceptance by the LLC out of state (as it's based in VT).
A little over 2 years ago my wife & I filed bankruptcy (chapter 7) following a foreclosure. After 2 years of credit rebuilding we are now thinking of buying a town home. We now live in Ct, the foreclosure was in Fl.

You can contest the ticket and take it to court. You may be able to persuade the state's attorney that you are correct.
answered on Feb 4, 2019

Do not defraud the court. This is a ridiculous question. I am trying to imagine a situation where an attorney will write in a public forum that it would be ok to defraud the court. Again, do not defraud the court.

You can file a personal injury claim. In the alternative you may be able to file under workers compensation. I would be interested in speaking with you further about this matter.

I signed a contract and I paid a deposit on May 1st. I was verbally told the work would be done by the end of May. I have not heard back from the contractor since (it is now mid June).

You need to hire an attorney with experience in civil litigation and contract law to "light a fire under the contractor" with a demand letter and some phone calls. At worst, you will need the attorney to file a claim against the contractor as well. This is something my office handles... View More

That depends on the deal that your attorney worked out for you with the prosecutor. Or you can consult with the Parole and Community Services office that serviced your case.

answered on Oct 12, 2017
Thats a little strange. You should get criminal defense counsel ASAP. You should also call back the police station and speak directly with them about protocol. Make sure you are prepared with the officer's name
I can easily find the list of exempt property in a CT bankruptcy case, but I can't find anything regarding caps on monetary value. Are there any?
answered on Oct 12, 2017
You need to discuss this with an experienced bankruptcy attorney and should never never never try and handle your own case. That being said, I would exempt your piano under your wildcard or tools of the trade but it would all depend on how that matches up with your other property and exemption... View More
