now. My current lawyer seems way out of his element. Is it best to just give up? He said it is extremely doubtful that we would get any compensation from the Chinese manufacturer.

I’m really sorry to hear about what you and your husband are going through. It sounds like a deeply frustrating and overwhelming situation. When a foreign manufacturer ignores a default notice, like the one you sent to the Chinese company, it doesn’t necessarily mean you have to give up. It’s... View More

You could reach out to law firms, but I believe attorneys could be reluctant to handle such a case for you. There are often disclaimers and terms of conditions in using any program. That's only an individual opinion. You could reach out to attorneys to discuss. Good luck

It sounds like you're dealing with a frustrating and potentially invasive situation. When you've clearly communicated to a company, through multiple channels, that you want to stop receiving messages or calls, and they continue to contact you, it could indeed be viewed as harassment. Even... View More

I can answer half of your question - my firm only handles workers' compensation matters, so I cannot comment on any medical malpractice issues. As to workers' compensation, it matters greatly whether you are actually at Maximal Medical Improvement (MMI). A finding of MMI can lead to a... View More

Using certain words that trigger judicial reaction based on a policy or an assumption about the public will work wonders. The simple act of filing petitions and not serving the... View More

A Pennsylvania attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for three weeks.

sublessee moved in, and a few months later got sick. She tried to sue the landlord, but the landlord said he owed no duty to her because the original tenant was technically her "landlord"
answered on Nov 16, 2023
In Pennsylvania, the landlord's responsibility for mold-related injuries depends on the case's specific circumstances. However, landlords generally must maintain their rental properties in a habitable condition. This means they must take steps to prevent mold growth and remediate any mold... View More

Yes it can. The plaintiff will need to prove how the accident actually occurred and impeach the incident report to demonstrate that it is false and the the plaintiff did not commit a crime. This typically involves calling witnesses to the incident to testify in court and offering other relevant... View More

In addition, most homeowners policies do not cover dog bites, unless the homeowner pays for an additional “rider” to his policy. The only way that an... View More
