From what you stated, there is no basis for you to file a lawsuit against the lender. In addition, if you file a frivolous lawsuit in NJ, you can be held liable to the other party for legal fees and expenses.

Thank for your time
You would probably be able to qualify for legal aid. If not contact local law school legal clinics. You will not lose your vehicle.
No one can tell you anything without reviewing the contract itself. Anyone could guess, the meaning these terms, but "limited lifetime" could mean many different things. You should NEVER sign any Home Remodeling Contract without having an attorney review it first.
Yes they can. You are going to need to retain an experienced matrimonial attorney to find out exactly what is going on and determine your rights accordingly.

Nothing about your question makes any sense. If you received a student loan, then you are obligated to pay for it. It's that simple.
Depending on the type of bankruptcy and the overall financial situation you could end up with more or less. This is not possible to answer in broad generalities.

Subchapter 5 just started this year. What exactly is it that you are trying to do?
They provided a well detail email about the options I have and I wanted to know if I should just settle for the $12 or can I go bigger they have broken my rights and invaded my privacy
Trying to file a lawsuit as an individual against a company like Google is not going to be cost effective. You don't even know if your legal fees will be covered or not. Most litigants in a class action settlement get next to nothing. I personally, would take the $12.00 and move on.

Me and my husband have been separated for 2 years he threw away all of my belongings and I just found out today that his girlfriend is two months pregnant and wanted to know if I can get alimony from him?
The answer is probably not. You have been living separate and apart for two years, so there would be a strong argument against it. The fact that your not yet ex-husband has a pregnant girlfriend is not a factor. What you need to do is have an in person consultation with an experienced matrimonial... Read more »
