There is nowhere near enough info here to help. For instance if it was a garlic press from a local store, tough deal.
But, if it is a car from Ford, whole other analysis. There is a fairly new law in CA that a company cannot (for lack of a better term) 'bully' a consumer into... View More

1. It's probably rice.
2. Maggots are not harmful to dogs, or even to you. They are just disgusting.
3. Without some significant harm, you don't have a case.

A California attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for four weeks. There are the usually ways you probably are already aware of, in terms of online research tools.

So sorry to hear this. Yes, you can sue. Winning is always another matter, but, unlike criminal law, which requires a verdict "beyond a reasonable doubt" in civil law, you need only "more likely than not" or 50% plus a smidge. Still, they can admit fault and there be an... View More

A California attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for three weeks. It's difficult to say, based on these brief facts. Aside from compliance with trade-related regulations, it could be helpful to know why they do not sell them overseas. Is it because of restrictive agreements... View More

If you have a personal injury claim you should talk to an attorney first. They most likely would have an expert evaluate it and keep it as evidence in your case. If you didn't get hurt very badly then it most likely will be hard to get an attorney. They should compensate you for a new mattress... View More

I was wearing sunglass. I was asked for a medical question like what is your diagnosis? I gave her my diagnosis. She looked it up via cell phone to find what it is. I am considering this violation of HIPPA's or an Invasion of privacy. Can it be both in same way?
answered on Feb 23, 2021
No because she wasn't inputting your name just the diagnosis. If she used a book it would be the same thing.

The previous answer is most likely what happened. You could sue either but I don't think you would get any attorneys to help. Call some and discuss it if you feel strongly but if the first 3 tell you that they can't help then you most likely will have to do it on your own. You will need a... View More
I was flossing and accidentally broke my filling. I used the floss as advertised. There is no warning on the flossing package of the possibility of breaking a filling. Is it worth sueing the floss company for not including a warning on their packaging to get them to put a warning on their packages?... View More
answered on Feb 7, 2021
People all over the country floss daily without having fillings pop out, so I would say it is much more likely that the filling was loose before you flossed. But, if you chose to sue, you would end up spending many thousands of dollars more than you would just getting a new filling -- and you would... View More

Sorry for your issues. This shows just how important writings are. If you had this "pre-inspection" you could/should have seen the items marked as missing and made some noise there.
