Moreover, Workers' Compensation has express exceptions within the... View More

You need to ask a question. Entry level jobs are plentiful and many employers are offering incentives. If this is a new, entry-level position, move on. If racial hostility or hostility against non-Spanish-speaking people is obvious, you may wish to seek a Right to sue letter from the EEOC but... View More

An insurance company has a right to refuse payment on an accident claim if the driver did not have a valid license.

Please consider the following:

1.) I have never counseled a client to lie and I am not telling you to lie. That said, you need to understand that if you tell the police that your boyfriend took your car, without your permission, you are telling your insurance company that they are not... View More

It depends on your carrier. Your insurance only covers "licensed drivers." Given that his license was revoked, your brother was NOT a licensed driver. Any carrier could use such an opportunity to legitimately deny a claim. That you were unaware is irrelevant unless he stole the car.... View More

It is necessary to know the nature of the faulty stair railing as well as the nature of the injury sustained and whether there are any deficits from the injury.

On your facts, you are responsible for the damage because on your facts, the county did nothing which would cause it to incur liability.

If that is the ONLY evidence, it is almost certainly not enough to secure a civil judgment and absolutely not enough for a criminal conviction. What EXACTLY is the evidence?

I am a dog lover so I do not tell you this lightly. In the law, a dog is a chattel - it is only worth the fair market value of another dog so, at most, you would file a Small Claims case. Though we treat them like family and grieve their... View More

Your question is a bit confusing. It looks like you are saying that you drove on a suspended license for 15 years. If you live in Detroit, Michigan, why are you asking about Indiana law? You really need to consult a local traffic attorney to assess your options. print out a copy of your driving... View More

You asked this under Illinois law so I assume the accident was in Illinois. I cannot comment on Nebraska law as I do not practice in Nebraska.

You have been subpoenaed to testify as a State's witness. ostensibly, your testimony will support the State's contention that the... View More

No public servant has any personal liability for anything they do in the course and scope of their job. Remote check-in was extended because of the Pandemic.
