When creating a code layout based on an image snapshot, copyright concerns depend on how closely the final product resembles the original.

Since you paid for the parts and they assured you everything was new with a 12-month warranty, but now the engine and fuel pump have failed just 15 months later, you might have... View More

This looks like it might take place outside the U.S., based on the units of currency, and the fact that a U.S. state/region is not included in the post. If that's the case, a local attorney in the applicable jurisdiction should advise. Good luck

If your solar panels and inverter have failed multiple times within just a few years, you may have grounds for a case under California's consumer protection laws. These laws generally cover...

Hello I won a medical settlement that closed 8 months ago, my attorney has been giving me the runaround on paying by saying that they have to clear any medical liens before they can release the money. Initially this was only supposed to take a month. Yet here it is 8 months later I still have not... View More
answered on Sep 7, 2024
I am not saying your attorney is or is not telling you the truth, but this is unfortunately fairly common with cases that include medical bills. Plus, your insurance company may not know about all the potential liens. In fact your own insurance company may not even know if it has a lien, as those... View More

answered on Sep 13, 2024
It sounds like it would be a difficult case. If it was a small amount of mold, which could be the case under a cap, you'd need to correlate that to hair-related damages. This is only my individual opinion. Other attorneys could see things differently. The most reliable way to answer your... View More

It's difficult to guess what the thoughts of the attorneys who declined your case were. I'm sorry for your serious injuries. A general guess might be that they did not see it as a product liability matter, but as a failed weld. But that's only a general guess, and might not be the... View More
