He obviously missed his appointment date, no reply to any of my calls or texts. I had already ordered his materials... View More
This is in state of wisconsin. Need to sell van. But can not get clean title to van do we need to pay this off first. Or was this his debt?
answered on Apr 23, 2018
The loan was your stepfather's debt, which must be paid using your stepfather's assets (i.e. the van). Since your stepfather passed away, your power of attorney is no longer valid. You probably need to file a probate and obtain Domiciliary Letters to deal with the Quick Title loan.

This is regarding my elderly mothers properties she quit claimed to a manipulative boyfriend before her passing after a short cancer battle.Can the validity of quit claims be challenged if they reflect fraudulent consideration amounts that were never transacted
answered on Jun 19, 2017

Party is trying to dismiss case because they say the contract states that jurisdiction will be in their county (Outagamie County)

I got engaged and the ring ended up pawned so how do I get the money or ring back is this a coingntract that I can persue getting my money back?
answered on May 7, 2012
You can hold your former fiancee liable for the ring if you still retained legal possession to it. In other words, the answer is based on whether you had the intent to gift the ring to her before the completion of the wedding ceremony. If not, she had no right to transfer it to a pawn shop and you... View More
Recently JBP did a free session of photos for my 8 mo. old daughter. During the session, the photographer had headbands/hats for her to wear. I thought the pictures from this session would be put on the photographer's website or in her portfolio, but I now see that the pics are posted on her... View More

It is clear that JBP has a copyright to the work, so there is no claim for copyright infringement. However, you have a different legal claim here.
JBP gave the pictures to its friend, and you did not release the friend from liability. Hence, there is a possible "using, without written... View More
