A lease was renewed in my name (no co-signer), all that was provided to me when I showed up for answers was a picture of my license being held from a photo and an electronic signature.
The person in question intentionally broke their contract, admitted to breaking HIPAA laws in writing, and refuses to refund a retainer, despite admitting that I am due a reimbursement.
Can this be handled in small claims court?
I am also intending to file a complaint against... View More 
My vehicle was booted and subsequently towed due to parking tickets. When I tried to retrieve the vehicle I was also made aware that I owed tolls and I had a two day insurance lapse. I paid the tolls. The DMV said I could go get a plate letter so that the tow yard could sacrifice the plates for two... View More

It sounds legal because your lapse in insurance coverage alone is probably sufficient cause for them to repossess the car, even if you're current on the payments.

It isn't fully clear what is taking place here, but if your boyfriend received citations or charges involving a hit and run with a vehicle operated by someone else, he should consider consulting with an attorney on the tickets you mention, noting the due dates for answers/appearances outlined...

Based on the information provided, it seems that you may have grounds for a potential lawsuit against Public Storage. However, the success of your case would depend on several factors, such as the terms of the storage contract, the extent of the damage, and the circumstances surrounding the... View More

I do work for businesses as well as individuals, and am wondering if I can pass along credit card fees to customers who want to pay with a credit card.
answered on Apr 3, 2024
This is so common that even the Courts now charge credit card fees when filing complaints or making motions. The tide has shifted.
2x I have sent in paperwork to do a payment plan but had to include a check for downpayment, each time they said sorry paperwork was late (i sent out on time) and denied payment plan yet they cashed the check(s). I live in NYS.

It's difficult to say, based on the limited details. One option is to use certified mail in the next re-enrollment opportunity. You could also look into the resources of the New York State Public Service Commission. They oversee the operation of utilities in the state. Good luck

I don't understand how a successor in interest (usually a purchaser) can go back in time and state that a lifetime license purchased from the original owner is invalid. I would start with that.

We closed last Friday, and bc the money came to him today he thinks he has 7 days from today because his lawyer keeps repeating it. Can he bar us entry? Can we demand keys? Make him leave sooner? Looking for options

Did you really leave a closing without keys/possession and without a formal post-closing possession agreement?
What money did he receive today? I hope you're not talking about an escrow to ensure his performance.
I know you think HIS lawyer is giving him bad advice, but what does YOUR lawyer say?

You and your partner should NOT have the same attorney and the attorney should know this is prohibited. There is an inherent conflict of interest.

One of the conditions I stipulated when I hired him was that when I ran out of money, he had to stop work. Also, I wanted to use my Home Depot credit card for materials. He agreed.

If there was an agreement to pay the funds back, you can sue to recover…the questions are (1) can you prove the debt (especially if the agreement was oral rather than written); (2) how much time and cost will you incur to being an action; and (3) is there a means to collect on a judgment.

To get a discount on a mini-facelift, I had to sign a non-disparagement agreement. There was no positive outcome from my facelift. Can I write honestly about the pre and post op? I will write what happened which will be negative but be truthful.
answered on Feb 8, 2024
I wouldn't. A disparagement agreement is a restraint about making statements that are basically negative or derogatory in nature. It is a different legal standard than defamation, where truth could serve as a defense against an allegation of slander or libel. It's a safe bet that the... View More
