Q: A girl I saved caused me to lose my job.
I called the police numerous times trying to save a girl’s life but she denied it (falsely), which resulted in my getting put on a 5150 hold by the police. I came out of the mental hospital distracted from work which resulted in my getting let go. Will I be able to successfully sue this girl for falsely claiming that she was fine and causing me to lose my job (money loss)?
A:
no lawyer, in my opinion, can evaluate the facts like these, without a consultation.
if you can't find a lawyer, and I assume that is the case, you can always go into small claims court where you can sue for up to $10k without a lawyer.
A: Whether you will be successful is up to the facts that you can prove. As the previous answer states it is impossible to know with the question as posed. You should consult with a local attorney who can go over all the facts and give you your options.
