The insurance has already called them more than once to inform them that there is an allowance but still they are overcharging me. A financial agreement was signed and the dentists stated on the agreement that those were the allowed insurance and treatment charges but it was all a lie and fraud. My... Read more »
You could file such a lawsuit, but IMO what you really have is a run of the mill breach of contract suit against the dentist. This really is not something to be excited about, and it is not going to go to the Supreme Court. You should write a calm and polite letter to the dentist with a copy of... Read more »

I DO NOT BELIEVE THIS IS A NEGLIGENCE QUESTION.
I SUGGEST YOU CALL A CHINO LAWYER, AND FIRST WRITE OUT ALL THE FACTS IN DETAIL, SO THAT THE LAWYER IS NOT PLAYING SECRETARY.
There was one occupied and one unoccupied child seat at the time of my car accident. Progressive says they will only pay $125 to replace the occupied seat. Is this acceptable per CA carseat laws? I was under the assumption they should be responsible for fully reimbursing the cost of both seats.... Read more »
IMO the issue is not whether the seat was occupied, but whether it was damaged so as to make it dangerous to continue to use for a child's safety. You have asked several questions about this and Mr. Light told you what to do to go to small claims to obtain satisfaction, which is your best... Read more »
I was involved in a minor car collision (5-10 mph) approx. 2 months ago. Progressive found me not at fault for the accident, and Geico also said their driver was not at fault. I already had to pay a $1,000 deductible to get my car fixed, but since it is now a word vs. word situation are there... Read more »
Small Claims against the other driver is an option if you can prove s/he was at fault. You will need Progressive's consent to pursue the other driver since Progressive now owns part of the claim for property damage. You will need the receipt/estimate for repair, proof of payment of the $1k... Read more »
You have a duty to cooperate in your claim. What that entails depends on the nature of the claim and what they are asking you to release. If this is an auto claim and they want to know if you were texting and driving, it would make sense for the insurer to ask about text messages. In that case,... Read more »
Although the money was paid back I lost the benefit from Medicare that allows this procedure only once every 5 years. This was not the first time this office has billed for more than services I received. I thought that I was only approved for a cleaning only to find out I was approved for a deep... Read more »
Fraud has a 3 year statute of limitations from the date of discovery. Perhaps you should sue the dentist for fraud. You could even go to Small Claims if it is less than $10,000. You should definitely consult with a Dental Malpractice attorney in your area.

And son or daughter is not listed as a beneficiary on the policy?
The money goes to the estate of the deceased beneficiary. Then it is distributed based on their Will or the law (if they died without one).
walmart drove up the front yard that costed around 800 to renovate the whole yard broke, broke a sprinkler, ignored when my father and I were addressing the issue and just got a sorry sorry and left as she was leaving the groceries on the driveway. A minute after she left I took a couple pictures... Read more »
Perhaps. You never know until you go to court. I suggest you send Walmart a written demand, certified mail, RRR, with your photos and the bills for the repairs or your estimates for the repairs, and give them 2 weeks to respond. After the 2 weeks is up, file in small claims. This is also... Read more »
It would be considered fraud or no?
Consider contacting a local pro bono attorney group related to the issue. The specific facts would need to be reviewed to understand what happened and any possible wrongdoing.
This answer includes generalizations and there are many caveats. This answer does not form an attorney client... Read more »

The boat owner gave it to his son, who ended up getting insurance for the boat. The title for the boat was never changed.
Potentially, since the title never changed. An attorney will need to review the policy and do a coverage analysis.
We ship acrylic computer enclosures (insured) and nearly every time one is damaged, we file a claim that FedEx denies - most times they don't even inspect the package. Then, we call, ask to speak to a supervisor, send photos and the claim is approved. This has been going on for many years.... Read more »
Sounds like it could be a good candidate for the California Unfair Competition Law as being a course of practice that is unfair, unlawful and/or fraudulent. (See California Business and Professions Code sections 17200 et seq.) There might even be some recourse under state consumer protection laws.

Evidence that you had the means to acquire $100k in personal property.

There is no way anyone here can answer that question without knowing far more. However the general rule is that the law does not usually allow someone to benefit from the mistake of another, and in most situations where a contract is concerned, money received by mistake needs to be paid back or a...

It would be easier to make a claim with your own insurance and let it pursue the tow truck driver for whatever liability it could prove. If you don't have insurance, you can try to pursue the tow truck driver. If your damages are $10k or less, you can file in Small Claims and get a Judgment... Read more »
