In a situation like yours, where your property was damaged due to your neighbor's shed burning down, you may have grounds for a claim. Since the house is inherited and the current owner has not maintained insurance, this complicates matters, but it doesn't necessarily mean you have no... View More

You can fire your attorney at any time. The attorney is entitled to some portion of the contingent fee. Consult with other attorneys before firing your attorney.

If you've suffered injuries from a fall and believe you didn't receive proper medical attention, prioritize your health by seeking a thorough evaluation. Document your injuries with photos. Contact your insurance company to discuss coverage, and preserve all evidence related to your injuries.

My guess is that your question is whether you are liable for the damages. Like most things in law, the answer is "it depends". Has your neighbor complained to you about the tree or the branches? In order to establish that you were unreasonable or breaching a duty of care to the... View More

You have to decide what amount you want to settle the claim, understanding that it will likely result in an offer lower than what you demand. Take into account medical bills, list wages. And pain and suffering at the very least when making a demand.

Maliciousness is not an element of an Assault case. All that is necessary is that you prove that a person knowingly caused or attempted to cause physical harm to another without the other person's consent. So, malice is not an element.

You have a low likelihood of being deemed to have admitted fault by giving a refund. Businesses give refunds for things for unhappy customers all the time.
