Make sure that you are actually dealing with a c o r p o r a t i o n and not simply a "business." Corporations are actual legal entities that have been registered with the GA Secretary of State. Note that OCGA 14-2-510 addresses actual corporations. Registered with the state. Not just... View More

A Georgia attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. As a general matter, the least costly route is usually to try to resolve the matter with the company's customer service. If that isn't possible, then you have a few options, such as hiring an attorney to... View More

A Georgia attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for three weeks. It would be difficult for an attorney to advise based on these brief facts. An attorney might need to see any denials of claims, the written warranty, repair(s) or defect(s) that form the basis of your company's... View More

Stores are private property. They can require customers to wear certain things to enter their store.
Before the pandemic, you saw on certain store doors, "NO SHOES, NO SHIRT, NO SERVICE" It's the same concept.

I'm sorry for your ordeal. A Georgia attorney would be in the best position to advise, but your post remains open for two weeks. The things that you describe, in terms of construction noise or clocks, are really more in the territory of a landlord-tenant attorney than a personal injury... View More
Background showed a felony.... Can they do that or will a judge have to order the eviction
answered on Mar 30, 2020
You will need to closely review your lease to determine what type of notice is required by the landlord. If they provide the notice per the lease and you refuse to move then they will have to file a dispossessory action (eviction) in the county in which the property is located.

It may be best to freeze your credit, alert your creditors and if you know who they are, file a police report.

The close family of the man buried there does not want a stone to mark his grave. My wife did not know that at the time and did not know how to contact any close relatives still living. Her mother was the one who wanted the stone marker and it was to be a gift to her.

You would need to discuss the viability of any claim against a Colorado cemetery or grave marker retailer with an attorney licensed on Colorado.
I canceled the cashiers check. Before I could pay them, they went to the moving broker and got my debit card information (unauthorized) and charged the amount the next day.
Is that misappropriation of funds or do I just need to reissue? I’m concerned that this is fraud and identity theft.
answered on Jan 20, 2020
It sounds as though the moving broker acted negligently towards you. If you have never authorized them to release your credit/debit card information to this 3rd party, this may be a case of fraudulent use of credit card or another offense. It is best to consult an attorney who can assess the merits... View More

More information is needed in order to provide you with a detailed answer. In general, if you are the primary on the loan, meaning it is your name on the loan documents and not his, repayment of the loan is ultimately your responsibility, and he is not entitled to the vehicle.

Ward was sent to mental facility from emergency room and the ward's stay exceeded the insurance coverage limit. Is the guardian legally liable for payment of the excess charges under Georgia Law? The hospital transferred the ward to the mental facility. I read under Ga Title 29-2-21 that the... View More
answered on Dec 5, 2019
The statute you referenced is not applicable because the ward is an adult. GA 29-2-21 is about minors only.
That being said, a guardian of an adult ward is not financially responsible for the ward’s expenses; these expenses would be paid for from the ward’s income and assets.... View More

answered on Oct 28, 2019
Thankfully, you were not injured. Because you did not get hurt, there is no claim for personal injury. Did you immediately notify Zaxby’s that you found a fish hook in your food? More than likely they would be willing to offer you a replacement chicken finger meal.
