Q: I have been a victim of false advertisement, breach of contract, discrimination, and negligence at my cosmetology school
Contract was breached 2 weeks after I started school, the school falsely advertised many things on there website and handbook that were never delivered. Additionally the school has discriminated against people with textured hair as well as students of color. All of which can be supported with photo evidence and witness testimony. Due to the schools negligence I lost nearly 50% of my hair which caused me physical pain and emotional trauma. The school was already offering 7,000 prior to the incident and are only offering $500 more for the damages done to my hair. There final offer is 7,500. The school has caused me to have addditional unplanned expenses and pain and suffering. I think this would be a very strong case but I am not sure how to proceed. I do not want to settle for 7,500 and think this case could be worth much more. There is a lot more details not included this but I do have a formal complaint that includes everything.
