It depends why you fell. If there was a dangerous condition in the parking lot and 7-11 knew or should have known of it, then you have a case. Get photos of the parking lot and whatever caused you to fall. If there is an elevation issue (pot hole, parking bollard, etc.) take a tape measure to... Read more »

It's not illegal in that no crime has been committed by accusing the police. Illegality would be the taking of the personal property. You should be able to trace the location of your laptop and phone through the location services of the various manufacturers/providers. If your boyfriend took... Read more »

You can sue the other driver in Small Claims to recover your property damages and rental car expenses. You can file a separate Small Claims action to recover your bodily injuries, if any.
It's unclear that the other party is at fault. You have an obligation to wait to make a left turn... Read more »
and she refuses to give the dog back. I have offered to pay her the cost of care for the time she had him, I have all paperwork showing im the owner, what can be done?

And now my taste and smell is not normal and it’s been this way for quite a while and they are still selling expired ecigs to... Read more »
Maybe if you have received medical attention, received a diagnosis and treatment, and there is medical/scientific evidence that the ecig causes your condition. Even then, you also bear responsibility for what goes in your body. If you now know that the ecig was expired, you could have determined... Read more »
What do I do next and do I pick a doctor lawyer? I didn't get the other party's info yet, should I do that before I do anything? What do I need to bring to these appointments? Thank you
First, get needed medical attention. It's always a little suspicious when people get lawyers before they see a doctor.
Second, make a police report, if you haven't done so already.
Third, get a consultation from a personal injury attorney. Any attorney that you hire will work with... Read more »
I provided a recorded statement and a dash cam footage to an adjuster of the party I believe was not at fault. Can my name/info be found out by the other party? Can my dash cam footage be viewed by the other party?
Yes and yes.
She did nothing but complain about them. She never wanted them I did. I have been the sole provider for them, also she moved to an apartment with no yard.
The fact that her apartment has no yard is completely irrelevant to whether she owns the dogs. The fact that you can provide a better home is completely irrelevant to whether she owns the dogs.
With respect to ownership, your post is unclear. You say that the two of you adopted the dogs,... Read more »

Anyone can be sued for anything, for the cost of a filing fee. The question is whether a suit can be won. The type of claim that might be brought against you is for libel (written falsities) or slander (spoken falsities) that damaged the subject's reputation. If, as you have noted, spoke the...

Sounds like your sister owes you money. You sold it to her and she agreed to pay. If you want to sue, you can sue her for the unpaid purchase price. It doesn't sound like the dog has been stolen from you.
Your sister can sue the ex for the value of the dog and/or its return. She can... Read more »
