If you have paid for a vehicle but the dealership cannot provide the title, your rights to rescind the deal may depend on the terms of the purchase agreement and the laws of your state. Generally, a dealer must provide a clear title at the time of sale or within a reasonable period. If they fail to... View More

The first step is to request a tow hearing, which is your legal right. This hearing is an opportunity to argue... View More

In New Hampshire, unauthorized use of a financial instrument, like a cash app card, can be considered illegal, especially if the card is registered in your name.
Even if the card is locked and the account is deleted, attempts to use it could potentially be viewed as attempted fraud or... View More

A New Hampshire attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. Until you're able to consult with a local attorney, a starting point could be to notify the manufacturer of the incident. Also, you could arrange for an electrician examine the connections and... View More

Without knowing more, it's impossible to render any competent advice. However, sometimes knowing what to expect helps. You should know and be ready to discuss any legal defenses you think you have. If you haven't denied or disputed the debt, you should think about what assets you have... View More
I owe a credit card Co. a lot, and they got a judgment. I recently received a court email saying that they have filed a writ of execution.
What exactly does that mean?

A suit can be brought in state district or superior court given the $20,000 amount. There could be other factors, such as whether a federal question is involved but I doubt it given your description.

Thanks for your question. In order to answer fully, I'd need to know, at a minimum, terms of the business purchase and what you want to patent. I'd also need to review the business purchase documents. If you're interested in hiring my firm for this, please just let me know. Thank you.

A New Hampshire attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for two weeks. As a general premise nationwide, insurance carriers do not have a statutory obligation to settle all claims. They have an obligation of conducting the claims process in good faith. But it is not necessarily bad... View More
I just bought gift certificates at a local restaurant and I was charged the tax. When I asked the cashier she said that is how we do it. Now when I give this gift the recipient will also pay tax when they purchase their meals. Double taxing does not seem right.
answered on Dec 12, 2019
As a former restaurant owner myself for over 34 years, I have never heard of this practice and we certainly never charged a meals and rooms charge in advance of a purchase. The meals and rooms tax is usually charged at the time the meals and drinks are purchased, and then they can be deducted from... View More

First you should demand payment by letter. when that doesn't work you should file in small claims court if you meet the requirements. Filing a small claims case in NH is now done by computer and relatively easy to handle. Good luck!

I looked over the rules and I don't see them in there either. You can file a motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim for which relief can be granted and state the same reasons you stated here. He might be using old rules that have been updated and no one ever called him on it. The... View More

If you can't afford to pay for room the hotel has no obligation to keep you in the room for free. They can't discriminate against you but they don't have to board you for free.
There was no contract and multiple discrepancies between home owner and contractor. After the contractor (my boss) felt he fulfilled his part of this job he told me to get paid from the home owner if I wanted to keep working on this house.

Since he made the threat of holding a gun on you, you should file a complaint with the police department and have them go with you to get your property back. If the property owner feels you owe him money he can't resolve the issue by keeping your tools and threatening you, that is why we have... View More

He does not work there, he just goes there often, and sees me there on occasions, we do not speak to each other, I do not cause problems, he claims he is close with the manager and that is how he has gotten me 'banned' So, do, I need to stop going to the restaurant? Is there further... View More
answered on Mar 5, 2017
There are two ways you can be banned. First, a court may issue an order restraining where you can go. That did not happen here based on what you wrote.
Second, if the restaurant is on private property, the owner or the owner's agents (perhaps the manager) can tell you not to go on... View More

No, you are not responsible for her debt. If she is the only one who signed the mortgage note, and were the lender to foreclose, you wouldn't be liable for a deficiency judgment.
