You may have a claim for a breach of contract. An essential factual element of a breach of contract claim is a material breach, that the defendant either failed to do something essential which a contract required it to do or that the defendant did something which a contract prohibited it from doing...

A Florida attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for three weeks. A basic doctrine of contract law that holds true nationwide is that the terms of a valid contract agreed upon by both sides will apply. But that is a general textbook principle. A Florida attorney who reviewed the... Read more »
I was emailed one document to e-sign. The document states that I must pay $750 to get out of the contract and not reschedule the surgery date. However, this document was signed not w my real signature. I was also asked for my driver's license via text. Now upon research, I know what... Read more »
Your "e-signature" would probably be regarded as your signature. They asked for your license so they'd have proof it was you. One would have to read the entire contract to know what happens if you don't pay the $750, but I'd be surprised if they actually bother to sue you for it.

The sellers realtor not buyers
Start by reviewing the contract.
The parts he claimed he didn't have
Is that froud
You can certainly ask him the question. If he can't explain otherwise, this evidence could be used in your favor. Don't you have an attorney to represent you in court?
My contact states if I prepay, I must pay the earned/unpaid part of finance charges up to date of payment.
No, of course not.
This is America, land of the greedy.
No company or person ever refunds any money that has not been paid to them first.
That includes auto loans.
Your contract earns interest by the day and then charges the interest accrued monthly.

All utilities are in my name and I pay all the bills.
The only issue is whose name is on the Lease. Generally, landlords want the name of every adult residing in the rented space to be on the lease (meaning that all the adults are equally responsible to the landlord for the full amount of the monthly rent). If you executed a new lease and you are the... Read more »
Employer is looking to change my full time base salary from 3,500 to a job by job pay until sales pick back up. Is this legal?
As a 1099 contractor, you are not an employee but a self-employed independent contractor.
If you have an actual employment contract (rare), the contract will dictate the terms of the relationship, for how long and how much. it should also provide for rights to modify its terms.

Extensive damage occurred in my house after work was done by a company. The damage was undetected for almost four years due to its location. Once found, expensive repairs were required. Three outside specialists confirmed the cause of damage was the poor workmanship. The company refuses to pay any... Read more »
You ask a very good question and one that I have been asked many times. An arbitration provision is valid even if the contract involved fraud. In other words, simply because fraud was involved in the transaction, that does not void the manner in which you have agreed to resolve the dispute. This is... Read more »
My aunt who is successor agent only is trying to steal my home I've lived in since 1993 that my grandmother owns against my grandmother's wishes but unfortunately she has Alzheimer's and my aunt is doing this out of greed with malicious reasons as well as she's very envious of... Read more »
If "the judge said [that your aunt] has power of attorney [and that the judge will] probably rule for [you] to move out ...", you should point that out to the judge, obviously.
I'm writing to get an idea for what my options are. I signed onto a car loan that I wasn't of clear mind to do so, and the dealership is refusing to allow me to cancel the loan.
Basically, what happened is that, while in the dealership before signing papers, I received some... Read more »
Sorry to hear about your ordeal. I assume you mean that you not only want to cancel the loan, you want to cancel the entire purchase transaction and return the car, as if the transaction never happened. Unfortunately, there is no way to do that unless there is some illegality - for example, if... Read more »
My business was being sued. The case had been going on for about 2 years. I was having financial issues and could not make payments to my attorney. He requested to withdraw and I granted it. I did not realize how hard it would be to find a new attorney and during my search me and my other two... Read more »
Bad situation, sorry to hear that. You should confirm whether the judgment is against the business only or against you individually as well. You may still be able to file a Motion to Set Aside DEFAULT Judgment, if it was entered by default, if you have excusable neglect and a meritorious defense.... Read more »
A couple years ago I adopted a dog from a breeder. She came highly recommended and seemed to be great but we received news this morning that she has been arrested for neglect and forging medical documents. The problem is she had us sign a contract before we took our dog and it basically outlined... Read more »
She would have to sue you to enforce the contract, which would cost her a significant amount of money, and it sounds like she has her own legal problems to take care of. In other words, I wouldn't be very worried about that occurring. It is difficult to say anything about the enforceability of... Read more »
I am a member of an HOA. We have a grill that we are required to pay $50. every month to use it or lose it. I never use it.

I answered this same question under the workers' compensation topic. Here is my answer: "If your case is over and settled, your work comp attorney should have collected his/her costs from the settlement. These are costs for things, like obtaining your records, on the case. Thus, if your... Read more »
Hello,
I ordered kitchen cabinets online from a dealer in another state. The first delivery (of 2) was supposed to be delivered with prior notice to my contractor. The freight company just dropped the pallets in front of the garage where they stayed for 2 days in constant rain. Nobody was... Read more »
It's clearly a negligence case. Meaning it is common sense that someone should be notified right away considering the possible rain. You should hire an attorney to write a demand letter.
Purchased a car with a two year warranty or 24K mikes and the dealership has a mechanic shop that handles the warranty guaranteed by the dealership. I’ve decided to payoff the loan in full, the dealership did the financing in house buy here pay here. I’ve had a few issues in the month or two... Read more »
No, unless you have a written agreement specifying that. Tell them that if the warranty is not honored, you will need to get your lawyer involved. They may say, "go ahead". Then schedule a consultation.
I called less than 24hrs after signing to cancel it. I do not have the car in my possession and the down payment money was not provided because the deal will be completed if my current insurance pay for the previous car. The dealership is insisting that they cannot unwind the deal. The leasing... Read more »
The answer entirely depends on the specific words and provisions on the contract. It is impossible for anyone to tell you yes or no without reviewing the exact words in the contract. You may need to pay an attorney to review the contract and give you advice on this. Consult an attorney!
In the most general sense, you have the right to sue for breach of contract or only pay what was agreed to. However, breach of contract cases are extremely fact specific and fairly complex, legally speaking. You may or may not have a claim. Consult an attorney if you think it is worth bringing a...
