In California, leaving the scene of an accident without properly exchanging information is considered a hit-and-run, even if the other party initially claims there is no damage or need to exchange information. Here are a few steps you can take to address this situation:
1. Contact your... View More
Mom's a Dr in our little town. She called the law and got us both locked up and then she sent her cousin lawyer in there for a power of attorney.

Back in February I was pulled over for speeding while passing cars to get to my exit. Hadn’t realized, but I didn’t have my wallet in the car so I didn’t have my license on me. The officer looked me up in the computer and then gave me a secondary ticket for driving with a suspended license... View More

My condolences. You will need to contact attorneys with experience with defective air bags. This is not my area law, but air bags are restraint devices like seat belts. The seat belt (or him not wearing one) appears to be a obstacle.
In a lawsuit am I protected from refusing to answer personal questions about my self and family members, due to religious reasons, privacy, and self incriminating.

The bottom line is for most personal information, no you cannot.
While your 5th Amendment right against self incrimination can be put forth for some issues. But, if you are the Plaintiff, this could harm your case.

Generally not, unless something was done to interrupt the prescriptive period (statute of limitations). In Louisiana, a person generally has one year from the date of an accident or incident to either file suit or settle their claim. Failure to do so will usually cause a person to lose their...

My old insurance only verifies or keeps records going back 7 years ( experience letter?) What can I do?

Insurance can’t help. Do I file or does my brother?
answered on Apr 23, 2024
If your brother has a claim for personal injuries, he is the claimant. Even though he was driving your car, he may have coverage from his own insurance company for his personal injuries. It is best to seek advice from a lawyer on this issue, and most, including myself, will offer free consultations.

His airbags never popped out
answered on Apr 22, 2024
I am sorry for your loss. Side window air bags might prevent ejection. Seat belts do a better job of that. You may have claims against the vehicle manufacturer, the rental agency, and/or the driver of the other vehicle (if any). This is too complex for analysis on Justia. You will need to... View More
We have the bill of sale and registered the sale with the DMV. How can we go about being removed as defendants in this case? Case is in Harris County, Texas
answered on Apr 24, 2024
Ask the lawyer defending you in the accident case to file a traditional motion for summary judgment asserting that you were not the owners of the vehicle at the time of the accident. You can attach the bill of sale and registration as summary judgment evidence.
