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. My husband can’t do the job anymore that he used to do. We are sinking financially now due to him being able to only... View More

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

From the way the question is written, it's not fully clear exactly what you wish to do, but it looks like your concerns might be related to intellectual property issues. You don't want to be accused of infringing on the designs of other products out there or getting into trouble with... View More

Be considered mail tampering. I have received the letter 1444c three times to my forwarded address but they returned the payment for the notice three times they know what they are doing and I want to know if I could perhaps file a complaint against that post office or whoever is in charge ect.

No. They are not supposed to forward certain things. You need to be sure that the IRS and the government have your proper address. Discuss this with your Congressperson--they have information on how you can get your payments.

Do you have a) medical reports and b) a report of a medical expert?
If you are claiming a product case, do you have deposition... View More
Winter so no big deal. Plus I left 2 push mowers. I left the freezer on the porch. However I asked if it’d be in her way that I’d take it to the lean tube shed but she said no it’s ok.

You had the duty to get the freezer. Covid would not have prevented you from getting the freezer. I don't see a claim. She isn't required to keep the electric running for you forever. But get a few more answers.
They have THOUSANDS of my own personal savings that they have told me is completely 100% refundable. Not only that, but they have my baby puppy. I’ve been uninformed throughout this whole thing about anything and I just want my puppy and money. This whole thing is making me physically sick.

Contact your local Animal Rescue League. Contact any national office. Contact your DA and the Consumer protection Division of the AG's Office in Harrisburg.
Send a demand letter to the group. If you call my office I will tell you what to do.
All the best.

We are waiting on a special order replacement windshield from the dealer, hence the expired inspection. Vehicle is insured and registered.
answered on Mar 3, 2020
No, it should not. The issue of overdue inspection does not absolve the other driver of blame for hitting your husband's car. Good luck

Sorry to inform you but "hitting your credit rating twice" is not actionable at law because you cannot prove any damages. At best you can complain about the creditor to the credit reporting agency--who probably has a file on this same window company.
P.S. The credit application... View More
