I’m sorry to hear that. You can sue but it will be your burden to come up with admissible evidence showing that the seller knew about then problem and lied to you. At this point you’ve only articulated highly suspicious timing between the sale and breakdown. Consult with a consumer lawyer... View More

If it is wrapped up and not easy to use, it should be OK. You can always get a long wide mailing tube or a carboard footer tube cut to length and put it in that.

You can sue in small claims court. If you left your clothes in an unguarded dryer, however, I don’t see why the hotel would be deemed liable for an unknown person’s criminal acts.

Q: Is getting a online paralegal certification a waste of time?

answered on Aug 31, 2020

It would depend on the program. If you get a certification from some place that no employer knows then don’t expect much weight to be given to it. You are better off going somewhere local and interning at a firm to get experience.
