You need to consult the lawyer that drew up the llp (hopefully not drawn up by an online site), consult an elderlaw attorney. I'd also suggest a family therapist because just erecting walls won't help your relationship.

You would have to show they knew the other kid had lice. But yes, you could make a claim against them. However they may not be happy to have your youth in that daycare, so make alternate daycare plans. Contact a member of the Ga.Trial Lawyers Assn for your county--they give free consults.

In the fall I hurt my back. For 9 years the pain just kept getting worse. I ended up having surgery in Nov.2017. I am still out of work to this day and in jeopardy of losing my job. After the accident they gave me a office job, and I pretty much made my own hours. I'm guessing this was to pacify me.
answered on Mar 6, 2018
Maybe not. It depends on what has happened in the meantime. Best to walk through it with a workers comp lawyer to be sure. My office offers free consultations.

You are required to file a report within 30-60 days under most policies. If it's not over that file one. Second, ask DMV to have the guy's license & tags suspended. If he has a policy that should do it. Last but not least contact a member of the Md. Assn for Justice-they give free consults.
If we do that, we lose our $1,000,000 umbrella coverage. If we then have an at fault accident and someone dies, and they sue us, can they take our house and IRA investments?
answered on Feb 11, 2018
Unlikely but that's why you have insurance--to minimize risk. However look first at the policy. Would reducing it make that big a difference? Per month? I ask because the biggest hit is for zero to 25.

It appears that Georgia has a 2 year statute of limitations from the date of the injury. There may be some exceptions or extensions of this general rule / law. Contact a malpractice or nursing home attorney in your geographic region as soon as possible.

You can defend yourself from someone that you reasonably believe is trying to harm you physically. "Reasonably"
is the key word. More information is needed to see if you have a self-defense claim.
