A&O in Arkansas is having workers traveling for all states do unnecessary work even though some workers have been diagnosed with covid-19
answered on Apr 9, 2020
The most reliable way of the workers figuring out their rights here would be to consult with an employment attorney in confidence based on their roles - essential employee, contractor, etc. You post under Personal Injury and ask about suing, but it isn't a personal injury type of setting.

What type of settlement am I entitled to
answered on Nov 3, 2019
An Arkansas attorney could answer you best, but your question remains open for a week. Your treatment with a chiropractor is but one factor that could be used to determine the value of your case. The liability examiner or attorney for the other driver's carrier would look at other factors as... View More
She has sent what appears to be a recorded message, it is not her answer.

An Arkansas attorney would be in the best position to answer, if there are state-specific laws involved. But your question remains open for a week. As a general matter in any jurisdiction, you are free to separate from your attorney. At the same time, your attorney could be entitled to compensation... View More
The Little Rock police department is investigating for felony charges. The whole incident was on video. I’m wanting to sue them but I have never had to search for a lawyer before much less understanding all the areas of practice.

You should consult an attorney with experience in intentional torts. If this security guard truly did attack you unprovoked, and the whole incident is on video, you could have a strong case against both the security guard and the hospital for any injuries you sustained in the attack.
An out of state attorney who is female and unwilling to represent me. To expand on this misunderstood sentence, she tries to communicate with me in an akward sense, she is being charged. This is due to her not communicating with me only. It is impossibly horrible to expect 'good standing'... View More

It might be easier to simply start looking for a new attorney in your state. It's anyone's guess as to why they aren't returning calls. Good luck

You want to contact an attorney who is a member of the Arkansas Assn for Justice/Trial Lawyers Association who handles workers comp & occupational disease claims. You should apply for Social Security Disability. If denied appeal. If the time has run file a second application.

This appears to be a matter of considerable complexity that would be difficult for an attorney to respond to in a basic Q & A forum. As a starting point, you could contact an Arkansas attorney to arrange a consultation. It was categorized under Personal Injury, but seems closer to being... View More
What can our family do legally? The person said they didn't see him on his loud Harley, yet hit him on the passenger front side while making a left turn. This was in Arkansas where he lived with his wife and son.

I would recommend you contact an Arkansas injury lawyer to discuss whether anything can be done in a civil claim. Regarding whether there is criminal liability for what occurred, I would need more information and also direct you to the prosecuting attorney in the County where the wreck occurred.
answered on Jun 2, 2019
I am sorry to hear about what occurred. You need to discuss this situation with an Arkansas dog bite lawyer. Liability for what occurred may depend on certain facts that need to be known. I hope she is recovering well.

People that do that type of thing tend to be poor or not have assets. Short answer is you can sue him,but that won't get you anything but a piece of paper. You want to get with the DA's victim assistance coordinator, and ask that restitution be part of any sentence. As far as the doctor... View More

In NY, the answer is yes. If the LL knew of the viciousness of the dog and failed to protect the tenants, depending on the precise facts, it is possible to hold the LL liable.

If a prosecutor doesn't want to prosecute unfortunately it only emboldens the assaulter. Best thought is to consider relocating if you can get work elsewhere. As far as dealing with some of the fallout, suggest you google

I retained a lawyer right away. I received treatments for whiplash and PTSD for 6 months.

First, set up an appointment for a face to face with him. Part of the problem may be that you finished treatment, the insurance is playing a waiting game--they figure it's a "closed end" case--you recovered, it's 6 months, they can see if he'll fold. Meet with him now. Find... View More
My mom Fell at Walmart and now they're trying to say they don't have to compensate her for falling on their property in that they can fight to not have to pay her is this true or not?

They will fight and if her case has merit they will eventually pay. They hope if they act like hemorrhoids everyone will go away.She should contact a member of the Ark. Assn for Justice for the county where it happened--they give free consults.

The 17 year old was drunk and also had a set of Brass knuckles on his hand.
