This depends on exactly how you acquired your system: You really need to see a local bankruptcy lawyer for a definitive answer, but here goes: If they simply took your signed note and did the installation, you might just be able to give it back for satisfaction of the debt . They should have... View More
I signed a contract in Arizona for replacement windows and doors on a Wednesday. The company claims the 3-day right to cancel ends on Saturday, but I believe it should be Monday, excluding weekends. Does the cancellation period include weekends, or should it be calculated as business days?

answered on Jul 1, 2025
I am assuming that you signed the contract in your own home.
If you did, then Ariz. Rev. Stat. § 44-5002 would apply.
44-5002(A) states:
A. In addition to any right otherwise to revoke an offer, the buyer may cancel a home solicitation sale until midnight of the third... View More

answered on Nov 18, 2024
You have provided insufficient information for me to know exactly what is happening. But it sounds as though your mortgage may be in arrears due to unpaid fees or other charges. If the amount tendered is not precisely correct including any late fees or other charges, a lender will often reject it... View More

I do note that on April 10, 2024--following the solar eclipse and one of the busiest days ever at the Austin airport--the baggage conveyor system for multiple airlines reportedly broke at 10:45 AM. That was an airport problem--not an airline problem. But SWA had warned its passengers that it... View More

I was recently involved in a car repossession situation in Arizona. I had an arrangement with my lender to make payments, but I fell behind by one month.

However, they are also required to follow **specific notice procedures** before selling... View More

No, they generally can’t apply a new refund policy to a purchase you made before the change. When you bought the course, you agreed to the terms that were in place at that time—including the 30-day refund window with no mention of course completion limits. A company can update its policies... View More
