I'm sorry for your ordeal with a baby in the house. You could review the policy with a Nevada attorney, but if it is similar to most homeowner policies, the circumstances you describe might not be covered. Every policy is different and without seeing your policy, it's difficult to guess... View More
I am 16, I just wanna buy a lighter for my candles

There is a specific statute on the sale of tobacco products to minors. Lighters are not even mentioned.

...it is unlawful for any person to sell, distribute or offer to sell... View More
I pay almost $1600 a month in rent and the leasing off drags their feet on fixing anything in my apartment. I have kept every picture and email I’ve sent to them. It’s currently 32 degrees and I have no heat in my home. I have a big hole in my wall cut out by a vendor. Garbage disposal not working.

Contact a Nevada landlord-tenant attorney or repost in the Landlord-Tenant category. Consumer law attorneys (where this is posted) don't usually deal with these issues. Good luck

It's a little difficult to understand exactly what your question might be. From the limited description, it appears you underwent a craniotomy and currently suffer from impaired memory function and it affects what you do under a contract?? I'm not sure. I'm very sorry for the... View More

There is a big difference between borrowing from a lender not authorized to make loans in Nevada and repaying a loan to a lender that is not authorized to make loans in Nevada.
Reading between the lines here tells me that

As it's their vehicle I believe they can put that equipment on it. Even if it wasn't it would be hard to prove damages.
I paid the $35+K to this firm as well and have inventory basically being held in purgatory at their warehouse. I have emailed the firm that is acting as conservator for this case Robb Evans a couple times with no reply.

Nevada,

Your uninsured motorist if you have it. Why not contact a member of the Nv.Assn for Justice? They give free consultations.

You should contact the County Bar Association in your area. They have programs that can help settle disputes between attorneys. Each state has different requirements for attorneys so its important to know the rule the applies and then take action accordingly.

Sorry to disappoint, but since the timeshare in Nevada is considered real estate, the only procedure available is "Set Aside Without Administration." Most people will need a lawyer to do that. In addition to the fees and costs of the probate lawyer, the timeshare company may charge a... View More
Also what rights do I have to use the photos ?
thanks
answered on Feb 2, 2017
If you took the photos, you own the rights to the photographs. If someone else took the photographs, look at your contract with the photographer.
Generally, a model release will specify the scope of what you can and cannot do with the photographs.

You'll get not a whole lot of sympathy, but assuming they didn't send you a notice saying "pick it up or else" then they are "bailees" of the item and have to care for it. They owe you the value of the item. Ask them in writing for the item or the amount you paid. Take... View More

"Judgment-proof" is a bit of a misnomer, in that your financial status doesn't actually prevent a judgment from being entered (and, attorney fees may be a part of that judgment). It simply means that you have no income or assets from which the creditor can collect right now. That... View More
