The contract price was $2,035. I was charged $2,700. I did not even realize it until now. Am I entitled to the $665 back?
answered on Apr 22, 2022
Yes,
You are. If the contract had price listed as $2,035, and they charged $2,700, then you are due a refund of the amount. Have you contacted the seller yet? I can't imagine that they would have a problem issuing a refund.
Contact them first and as soon as you can. This... Read more »
My lease ends this month and the apartment complex says that I need to give them 60 days notice that I'm moving out. I've never heard of needing to this. If I have to comply I'll be paying a ton more for a month to month contract which I don't want to do.

The answer lies in your rental agreement. Does it require 60 days notice?
5 months but did neither. We signed just a generic paper contract but didn’t have a notary or anything. My question is? Can she come after us for not paying the breeding fee and if so would the contract hold anything in court where it wasn’t witnessed or signed by a notary? Thank you for your time
answered on Feb 14, 2022
Having a notary is better evidence, but it is not required to prove a contract was signed. If you get to court and the judge asks you whether you signed the contract, and you say no, that is perjury, which if proven, can get you some time in jail.

Small claims court is definitely designed for issues like this. Like Solomon in the Bible, they have a tendency to "split the baby", so if you wonder what your outcome may be, add up your damages and costs that can be proven with good evidence, and then cut the total owed to you in half....

I highly recommend you communicate directly with an attorney to allow them to ask you questions and give you the best advice possible. Threats of violence are never ok. Contact local law enforcement and make a report.

If you want to sue someone on your own, you can go to your local justice court. This is called a "Small Claims" court. The court will have a maximum amount of damages you can sue for. You might sue for the money back you already paid if they improperly repossessed your car. Or you might... Read more »

Repossession must be handled peacefully. If they refuse to give you the dog, a court order can be obtained after winning a lawsuit based on the contract.
Everything depends on what was stated in the contract, so you will do well to have an attorney review everything before you proceed.

I was under contract (standard UT REPC) with seller for property. I went to close on the property (prior to require closing date) and find out the seller has sold the property to someone else. I paid $2K earnest money and also hired people to inspect and consult on the land. Now, like properties... Read more »

I am sorry to hear about your situation. That is rough.

Unfortunately situations such as this are not uncommon, thought typically it has to do... Read more »

Hello,
The best way to handle something like this is to make the contract dynamic in that it would refer to another document titled "scope of Work of Project X" and then define the terms of that particular project. The challenge though, is that you are going to need that other... Read more »
Asking because a friend wanted to know if I could sign his apartment lease agreement for him. In addition, I am wondering if someone could sign a legal document such as applying for auto or medical insurance policies on behalf of a person?

It depends on the business. Many businesses and government entities will allow you to use a "Power of Attorney". This is a document signed saying it is ok for someone else to sign on your behalf.

First, it sounds as if the only agreement you signed is the one you both co-signed for the purchase of the car. The normal expectation is that you have the right to continue to pay the car loan on time until it is paid off. If you failed to do so, and the co-signer had to step in to save the... Read more »
