It doesn’t sound to me like you have any damages from the privacy breach. If TitleMax has any account numbers or passwords, they notified you so you can promptly change them.
Yes, you still have to repay the loan. Title loan companies are “lenders of last resort” meaning that the... View More

Yes. You can sue them for the forgery. You will have to prove who exactly did the forgery which may prove to be difficult.
Your damages are $37.82. So I would not expect an attorney to take the case on a contingency fee. You will have to do the cost-benefit analysis yourself.
We went to the Court annex and he didn't tell me he didn't have an idea and he actually had a ticket warrant and so we couldn't get a regular marriage license. So we decided to use a common law marriage. We both announced on our Facebook pages. He introduced me to all of the... View More

If you chose to record a declaration of common law marriage instead of getting a marriage license, you can and should file for divorce under the circumstances you describe. You have two years from the date you stopped living together as spouses to file. From your description, that sounds like it... View More

Sounds more like an email advertising to do legal services in connection with drafting a stock purchase agreement for a flat fee of $500.
I would be highly suspicious and would request more detail.
This has been going on for five years and one of there names is Boonzey
answered on Jun 21, 2023
Yes, you can. But you will need the individual's legal name and address either to complete a police report or to serve the individual with a civil lawsuit. My suspicion is "Boonzey" is not the person's actual legal name.

The car lot looks like the victim of the crime. Without more facts, I can’t say you have a valid cause of action against the car lot.
You may, however, be able to successfully sue the individual who used your SSN to get the loan.
