Your post cut off mid-sentence. If you desire to hire an attorney to file such a lawsuit, look for someone local and experienced. We cannot solicit through Justia not recommend anyone.

Bad situation. If he is threatening you, get an order of protection to have him removed from the residence. Seek some social service assistance for abused women.
A close friend is of mine owes money from a loan in college and a couple of months ago a collection agency notified them that they will move to court to garnish wages unless said friend would agree to make payments. Of course my friend agreed to do so and everything was fine for the first month to... View More

Your friend ought to hire an attorney to review the docket sheet and contact the plaintiff’s attorney. There’s no general right to a payment plan but without reviewing the docket and correspondences with the collection agency it is hard to give an informed response.

Your question is unclear. I don't know what you mean by "sign up for corporation." If you clarify you may get a useful answer.

Your question doesn't provide any context. I suggest you revise it.
During Hurricane Beryl a tree fell on top of our vehicle while in the driveway , we asked the landlord about removing the tree off the vehicle and she stated it was an ACT OF NATURE and it was nothing she could do, we paid $850 to have the tree removed from the vehicle but the remaining tree is...

Missouri's rent-withholding statute is unlikely to apply. It's limited to $300 or half a month's rent if I recall correctly. An attorney would need to read the lease to assess the situation.
The party is not on any paperwork to be able to live in the home. They have been told to leave many times and have refused. Now they are threatening to use their mailing address to demand an official eviction. Is this necessary?

Could give and notice to vacate then sue for unlawful detainer.
Bought it on 6/14/24. Didn't even work as well as my 20 year old unit, which frankly I want back. The new one isn't even working now. What can I do? This is unacceptable.
I told the company I wanted the old unit back. No response so far.

answered on Jun 19, 2024
You can hire an attorney and file a lawsuit to recover your damages.
I don't know whether the company still has the old unit.

I’m so sorry to hear this. You didn’t ask a legal question but must be wondering what to do. The answer is that you should get in touch with a local attorney. The other driver’s insurer won’t take an unrepresented party nearly as seriously as one represented by counsel. Under... View More
Placed with authority over my day to day and even requires I clock in and out. I work 45-50 hours currently. On call 24/7. I don't know whst rights I have but it doesn't seem right. Nothing in the operating agreement states this can or cannot be done

answered on May 12, 2024
It’s hard to give a meaningful answer without more details. Your rights are governed by the operating declaration and any contract.
I was served to appear in court, however I believe Missouri has a limit on fair attorney fees at 15%. The attorney is charging 50% for filing the suit. Is this a FDCPA violation?

answered on Apr 30, 2024
You may be referring to Section 408.092, which limits attorney’s fees for enforcing credit agreements. There’s not a general 15% cap. Ultimately, if tiki lose the court will determine the amount of reasonable attorney’s fees.
Thus attorney signed his name and gave this unsigned legal document to my job for an car dept 17 years ago.

Hire an attorney to take a look at the garnishment and court docket. Garnishments get issued through the court on request from a judgment creditor. I’ve never heard of an attorney trying to serve a fake garnishment on an employer. If that is true, you have legal remedies to assess.
I expect to loose this case , but , I don't believe that a credit card company can take any of my social security money.
Should I appear in court ?

answered on Mar 27, 2024
If you don’t appear then a default judgment will be taken. You may be surprised as to the amount. If you appear you might be able to work out a settlement if you are willing to make payments.

A Rule 67.03 motion is not the proper motion to file to seek to win on the merits based on your disagreement with the allegations in the petition. If you can afford an attorney, hire one.
She pieces out payments to me in small increments of 100-200 dollars. By the time the previous check has been paid, the next is due, leaving me over 1 week behind all the time.

Missouri has a strict law about when a final paycheck is due but I’m unaware of any statute governing the timing of pay while you are still employed. If your employer cannot afford to pay you or won’t timely pay you, maybe it’s time to look for another job rather than wait to be terminated.
The request was denied. I sent a second letter and now I’m being attacked.

answered on Mar 7, 2024
To answer your question about whether you may terminate your contract, an attorney would need to review the contract. There are exceptions, but parties generally cannot unilaterally terminate contracts.

answered on Feb 21, 2024
There is no way to answer this question effectively without reviewing the contract and assessing the facts. For example, was this a sale solicited at your home? How much time has passed? In general, parties are bound by the written terms of a contract but contracts can be breached.
Like I only got paid for 8 of the 16 hours I worked

You might be able to get additional money if you contact an attorney. Missouri has a good unpaid wages statute that allows for weeks of additional pay if a proper request is sent and ignored.
I'm 2 weeks away from closing on a new build in a subdivision. The developer just emailed me a $9k increase due to "surplus charges". According to their contract, they must send via certified mail. We, the buyer, get to say if we can to pay or cancel via certified mail. Is an email... View More

The answer depends upon whether the court would strictly enforce the notice requirement. I would think that a court would or should enforce the contract as written, but no attorney is going to be able to tell with certainty how a judge would rule.
I suggest that you hire a local attorney... View More
