Likely, you should give your insurance company a call and they'll get ahold of his insurance and sort out your property damage claim. If you end up with a bodily injury claim, then a good Plaintiff's attorney will be able to help you out.

It depends. If the propane tank was buried, it would likely be considered a fixture and transferrable with the property. It also depends on who the propane company was that set the tank. Often, the companies themselves retain ownership of the tanks. Lastly, it would depend on whether any term... View More

Her likelihood of winning is strongly based on whether she has any communications that state it was a foster situation. See if you can pull up any communications regarding the initial transaction (exchange).
Our contract indicates she is a "Goldendoodle" but her DNA indicates she is a mix of 5 different breeds (only 36% poodle and 16% Golden). We would like to get our money back. The breeder's response was that she doesn't put much stock in DNA tests.

It's worth a try, what they did may have violated the Ohio Consumer Sales Protection Act, which prohibits unfair and deceptive business practices. Under the CSPA, you can get triple your damages and attorney fees.
She claims we misunderstood and she was having us “ foster” the dog till she was able to have her again. No talk of this being temporary or “ foster” was ever said. She never compensated or even contacted us during these 6 months . Its not about the money and we just want to keep our dog!... View More

If you have the original texts/emails which show she planned to give the dog to you, you should be fine. Even if you don't, she'd have to take you to small claims court and your position seems defendable.

I no longer have the receipt (although my friend might have copy of check) and pedigree forms that came with the dog when purchased. I have... View More

Yes, you can take him to small claims court. You want to allege Conversion of Property. Bring your records, try to find a copy of the check, and see if you can find any communications from him which support that the dog was purchased for or a gift for your daughter. You may want to bring it in both... View More

She was not invited. Should I not allow her to leave, or will it come back on me if something happens?
answered on Aug 24, 2020
You should 100% always allow people to leave, particularly a young girl. The idea that you should prevent a young girl from leaving when from what you've mentioned here, has caused no damage but passed through on a golf cart, is terrifying.
If you are worried about trespassers, get a... View More

No, you should discuss the dog with your divorce attorney. He/she is marital property and should be divided/move based on the division of assets.

From what you state here, she specifically gave the money to your family to hold for an apartment. Your son took it upon himself to buy her an iPhone, which was more than the cost she asked your family to hold for the phone. It sounds like the phone was a gift and she specifically asked you to hold... View More

Parents are usually responsible for the actions of minor children, so you'd likely want to sue the parents as well.
I checked the lease termination policy over email before signing on the lease agreement document over email. Now, the landlord is saying that terms of lease-breaking is changed and i should consider the latest one if i want to break the lease. I have the email conversation as a proof of that.
answered on Aug 13, 2020
Your lease is the contractual terms that both you and the landlord agreed. They cannot unilaterally change the terms of your relationship.
Received the car. What am I to do?

If you have it in writing that they agreed to repair a dent in the roof, you can likely sue them for the damages. If it's not in writing, you're probably out of luck.
The plaintiffs documents are false and I do not really want to use them but I don’t want add those to my answer. I haven’t referred to them at all in my answer but I want to add an original will, do I add it to my own as exhibit a or do I add it onto the plaintiffs as exhibit E?
