The woman died and she have adult kids but the grandmother is administering her estate.

You need to contact a probate lawyer. A probate lawyer can help you even if the estate isn't going through a formal court probate as this type of lawyer handles all cases where someone dies and the survivors need help with the decedent's final financial affairs.

If this fellow is still owed money for work he has performed on the truck, then he has a mechanic's lien on the truck and can keep it as collateral until he is paid in full. Then he has to release it, but technically only to the Personal Representative or Claiming Affiant of your... View More

I was told collection would be evaluated (each piece as I had over 9,000) graded, and put to auction. This was not the case. They were lazy and sold by collection by geographical area in 8 different lots. Sold for less than 4k. Was told would fetch up to 10-12k. They misrepresented the process... View More

There is probably some type of agreement you signed, either a paper agreement or an online agreement. You will need to take this agreement and copies of all documents showing what Heritage promised they would do in terms of selling your collection and go to an attorney to get your case evaluated....

You really should find a worker's comp attorney. From my understanding, is they are paid in a way that does not decrease what you get.
This is a broad question. Please help me understand what risk my siblings and I may have for our father driving. Is there any case law in Oregon setting precedence? In my mind's eye, we have a moral obligation to the public. My questions are: Knowing our Dad should probably not be driving... View More

If you father does not live in your house, isn't driving your car, and isn't listed on your car insurance, I don't think you have any legal ties to him such that the damages for an accident he causes will come back on you. The indirect financial problem would be that if he causes an... View More

Leases are contracts so the terms of you contract should govern what the consequences are of breaking your lease. If the contract doesn't specify you and your leasing agent should agree on something, but within 30 days would be reasonable, although not necessarily a rule. What you don't... View More

I am not aware of any law that would prohibit this. However, your first step should be to take your concerns to management. A well laid out argument that addresses exactly why this is a bad idea for the company (e.g. lost customers), along with a well thought out plan to address those concerns but... View More

Call your home owner's insurance and let them take care of it. If your neighbor sues you they will defend you. Just pay your deductible. I think your neighbor is responsible for the tree falling on your house. A property owner needs to inspect trees and make sue they are stable. (I... View More

You haven't given enough facts to allow us to determine if a breach of bailment theory would be the right cause of action. It could be. Generally speaking a pet is considered personal property and if someone is negligent in how they care for your pet, you can sue them for the negligence.... View More

First, if you knew all about his past to begin with, why did you agree to date him let alone move for him? While not a legal question, it is something to ponder, as a jury will do the same if you went all the way to court on many of your above issues.
Otherwise, I would also suggest not... View More

First you need to get the paperwork they sent chase. They can't just show up with a levy. Second you need to find out who this board is. I'd also worry the whole thing is a scam, so follow up with JP morgan at a number you get on your statement not on some email.

(There is also a form that does a complete transfer of all future exemptions so be careful you don't sign that one.) Normally the IRS rule is that the... View More

Your ideas on how to do documents for a lawsuit are all wrong. Judge's don't sign complaints. Also a lawsuit for alienation of affection is no longer recognized by the Oregon Courts. In any case, when it was recognized, it wasn't based on the facts you are describing. Alienation... View More
