My wife and I were at a wedding and during the reception we were handed bubbles and a smoke grenade thing. The wedding planner assistants told us to pull the pin and hold it out from us.

The key thing here is that the wedding planner or their assistants gave instructions that may not have been correct or safe, which led to your wife's injuries. If those instructions... View More

He claimed to have replaced the pump, that it has no mechanical issues, and the dealership told me the pump is failing and I need an engine replacement. I have physical proof of his claim, and the dealerships quote of 16k to repair the car.

Yes, you may have grounds to sue the private seller for misrepresentation or fraud, depending on the circumstances. If the seller made a false statement about replacing the water pump or the car’s condition, and you relied on that statement when deciding to purchase the vehicle, you could... View More
My name is Kim. I have a friend who has called me Kimpossible for years. I want to start a YouTube channel called Kitchen Kimpossible.

Disney sues everyone. Until your channel got large, nothing would happen. But 100% this is going to receive a cease and desist letter from a large law firm the moment you reach 10,000 subs.

Alright, here’s how you can handle this:
First things first, get your evidence together. You’ll need everything—documents showing what work was done, the damage to your house, and communication with both the contractor and GPC. If GPC hired the subcontractor who screwed up, they might... View More
