Your son still has some options, even after signing his enlistment contract. Since he hasn’t passed the ASVAB yet, he hasn’t fully qualified for service, and this may give him some flexibility. He could work with his recruiter or someone higher up to explore if there’s a possibility to delay... View More

My friend left me the title to his motorcycle before he went to prison. Does that make the vehicle mine?

Possessing the title to a vehicle does not necessarily make the vehicle legally yours. The title is a document that establishes ownership of the vehicle, but ownership is determined by the name listed on the title and any applicable laws regarding ownership transfers.
If your friend left... View More

You could reach out to attorneys to try to arrange a free initial consult. If you have a copy of the police report,... View More

No. As long as rent is current, the length of time the property is stored is irrelevant.
On the other hand, if rent hasn’t been paid, the self-storage facility has the right—after giving written notice to the renter—to auction the contents off to pay the rent.

She got caught forging my signature on the horses registration papers. Now she's sueing me for 20k for the 2 years she's had my horse. What kind of attorney do i need

Get a lawyer who will answer your calls even on weekends. You will probably owe her some money and she wants to keep the horse instead of taking payment. My cousin is one of the top trainers in the mid-south. Her fee is $375 per month per horse. That would come to around $9,000 in your case. Since... View More
