A California attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for three weeks. It could be a difficult situation to establish fault - depending on the level of expertise of the parties, tech support sessions often introduce the possibility of confusion when it comes to instructions...

Then I get a bill in the mail for the missing headrests. I panic and called the phone number on the paper. And they tell me that there is nothing they can do about it and that the dealership is the one in charge. so I got in contact with the dealership and the dealership isn’t taking any action...

Sorry for your issues. This shows just how important writings are. If you had this "pre-inspection" you could/should have seen the items marked as missing and made some noise there. If you took pictures (which are considered a writing) you have proof. If you have your drop off documents... View More
Purchased California King mattress from Nectar late summer. Felt sharp pricking on my body as early as 1st week sleeping in this mattress. Thought it was bed bugs, but no signs of bed bug bites on my body. Recently, followed instructions on the company's website on how to clean pee off their... View More

There could be some lawsuits regarding your situation. Sit down with a personal injury lawyer to see what options you might have. And good job documenting everything.
I bought the Modway Caroline mattress on Amazon 2018, my daughter slept on it for 1 year. Then went to sleeping on my bed. She does complain of itchy back, on and off.

Hi, I had a question about ID referencing. One night I was getting ready to head home from work and this lady came up to me saying that she didn’t have her ID with her. I questioned her reasoning for getting her pain meds at Walgreens and if she was prescribed them, I talked to the pharmacist and... View More

Hmm. You "referenced ID'd" (I don't even know what that means, it isn't a legal term) for a person that you don't know, at all, for them to obtain federally controlled substances from a Pharmacist and now you want to know if you could get into trouble? Well, it could... View More

Without additional information this is very difficult to respond to. A lot depends on the retainer agreement. Maybe its ok, maybe not. What if they have to spend $50,000 for deposition costs and it requires financing at 10% for 5 years. Should the law firm just eat the $25,000 in financing... View More

You very well may have a case if the facts are as you describe. You may also be able to work out a contingency fee with an attorney to represent you so that you don’t pay anything to bring the suit unless you win or get a settlement in your favor. It probably bears speaking to an attorney about... View More
To me. I bought it new and I want underaged. I want full refund and they said no because they registered to me. We jar recourse for I have?

If the rear panel is in back order, it sounds like they are going to deliver a new, undamaged fifth wheel to you. I don't see any basis for a refund, unless there is some damage that hasn't been disclosed and has not been repaired with new OEM parts.
A retailer is selling a product from a third party that requires a buyer to be approved for a loan. The buyer applies, and is approved for the loan. After being approved for the loan, the retailer informs the buyer that theyre sold out of the product. The buyer now has an established loan/line of... View More

With the facts given, the credit/loan taken out can be paid in full since the funds were not used to purchase the product so there are no damages to the consumer under these circumstances. With no damages, there is no case to pursue.

Trademark registrations may be filed as Intent to Use ahead of time, however proper clearance of the trademark should be conducted to ensure that the trademark is not being used by anyone else in the same or related class/category. Work with a trademark attorney to assist you.

I believe that sellers of these products have to be licensed to sell them. Unless you are licensed you could be in violation. If you are selling them to individuals what makes you think you are not engaged in Retail Sales? If you sell to a minor, you could be in real trouble, I understand the... View More
And it tasted nasty and I think there was something in it and it made me throw up
answered on Jul 21, 2020
Well, the evidence is gone or mostly gone, because you smoked it. Also, claiming you threw up isn't evidence of damages. For that, you need medical care, including a diagnosis, lab tests showing the presence of some bacteria, virus, chemical, poison, etc. that can be traced to the cigarette,... View More
I recently purchased a vehicle from a Chevrolet dealership in San Diego, CA. I had horrible credit at the time and was only able to be approved with a large down-payment, which I was able to make happen. The amount on the paperwork does not even closely reflect the $12,000 I put down. What can be... View More
answered on Jul 10, 2020
If you can prove that you put down $12,000.00 just let them know and seek an adjustment to the documents. If they refuse to adjust, that's a problem for them. Good luck with it!

I have been drinking Starkey water from Whole Foods for many years until I found out just last Friday on 06/19/2020 that it is very high in arsenic levels. I have developed liver illness (advanced fibrosis). I live in San Francisco of California.

I'm sorry for your issues. You do NOT want to normally be part of a class action as the remedies offered are rarely as good as the remedies you can get on your own. Your more important question since you are automatically part of the class if you fit the class description, is "How do I... View More

Very sorry about this situation. I am a cat owner and I can tell you they are pretty independent creatures and won't listen to or obey anything they are told. The probability of getting them to stop is pretty small, even if you speak CAT. However, this does not mean that you are required to... View More

Very sorry to hear about your situation. Buying used cars is difficult particularly if you are not mechanically inclined and cannot detect defects on your own. But lets talk about what you can do now. If you bought this from a dealer, you probably got a very limited EXPRESS warranty (meaning... View More
If I sell skateboards, and I am using other companies skateboards and I put them on my site, can I do this legally? I do not have their permission to do so but I am giving them credit.
answered on May 23, 2020
This isn't really a product liability question, which is more about injuries from defective or dangerous products. And by "putting on your site," it sounds like you mean more than simply selling them through your site, since you talk about giving a company credit. You should repost... View More
