It is my intention to move within the next 6 months but my lease renews for a year on the 1st of May. Can I advise landlord in writing that I do not wish to renew a year lease and would prefer to move to a month-to-month basis while I am looking for a new residence. It is possible that I may move...

You can ask, but the landlord does not have to agree to month to month. If it renews automatically for another year, then you might not be able to break it if you have to move. You might ask landlord to include an early termination in which you would pay some extra amount to terminate, but... Read more »

In an insurance contractor contract it's specified that in order to exit the contract the claim owners need to pay the contractors %25 or $5,000. It is not specified which one takes precedence. Is it up to the contractor to choose which one or does it default to whichever one is less?
answered on Mar 30, 2023
A rule of construction (interpretation of contractual language) is that ambiguities are resolved against the party who drafted the ambiguous language. So, assuming that the other party (an "an insurance contractor", whatever that is) drafted it, it would be whichever is less.
I bought a service contract 23 days ago, and it says you can only cancel within 10 days. There were some important details about the service contract that the salesman lied to us about in order to convince us to buy it.

You may be able to fight this contract but additional information would be needed to give a meaningful evaluation.

Contracts generally do not need to be in writing to be enforceable. Certain types of contracts do, such as those for the sale of real property or leases for periods of more than year.

As a general matter, and there may be some exceptions where, e.g., performance begins or acceptance may be implied, an “offer” is just that, and until both sides agree (by the other side accepting the offer) to something, it is not enforceable.

DMV said I need a lawyer for "claim and delivery" for vehicles. DMV investigated and put a block on my 2 titles so he cannot sell them. In early March DMV officer K.F.

In general duplicative motions are not allowed. A motion to vacate or renew might be appropriate. You haven’t included all the relevant information in your question. No attorney should advise you without reviewing the facts and court documents in your case.

You did not state the reason for the failure of your defense, but you are not handling this correctly, and you should really talk to a lawyer if the sum being sought justifies it.
