after 2 calls to 911 and aprox. 25 min, 2 5 foot female EMT and one firefighter arrived. I live 5 blocks from firehouse. the ambulance came from another county two towns away. They never gave me medical attention on site. they pushed and nudged my shoulder to get up and walk to their gurney, which... Read more »
Sorry to hear that your medical condition caused you pain. What you have is a potential "Governmental claim" and you should seek the assistance of a local Personal Injury attorney. You have a limited time to file a "Government claim form" against the agency that provided the EMTs.
How can we, as plaintiffs, who have to stop litigating not end up responsible for the defense costs? We never even realized this was a possibility when we sued. We sued for a very good reason, but for several reasons, we cannot continue this lawsuit any longer (it has been 3 years). Really would... Read more »
First, don't tell the defense you have to stop litigating. You need to settle and get mutual releases. You should discuss with your attorney.
A California attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for two weeks. You could continue to await a response here, but it could be difficult for an attorney to reply - this is only a Q & A board. Some options you could consider include looking into sites that do operate as attorney... Read more »
We need help with how we should word the motion filed to withdraw vs dismiss or what to call it? What is the best way to go about doing this to be 100% sure we are not responsible for the defendant's attorney fees and can the defense come back and try to sue us after we either withdraw or... Read more »
you really want to have an attorney contact them to try to get some money and then when they say no, to ask if I can get them to drop/dismiss the case, we would want a release agreeing that each side shall bear their own costs.
if they know you are going to give in, then they may not agree... Read more »

Unfortunately, this Q&A site is not a place to ask attorneys to contact you to work for you.
If you can prove you were harassed and discriminated against because of your religious beliefs, you may well have a meritorious legal claim.
Whether or not you would have a meritorious... Read more »

A boy (12) took my daughters (11) brand new (less than 1 month old) glasses off her school desk and threw them across the classroom. Hard enough to break one of the arms off of them. I now have to replace them. The 2 kids weren't fighting or rough housing etc before hand. It was completely... Read more »
Yes, a 12 year old knows this behavior is wrong and it is wrong to damage some else's property. You should consult with the teacher and the principal and present the bill to the parents for the child. If they don't pay, take them to small claims court, it will be a good lesson for... Read more »
They didn’t offer additional coverage, knew I had nonowners & loaned a vehicle. Vehicle was damaged & nonowner policy won’t cover it saying they should’ve never let me drive away with it. Am I responsible for the damages to the car? Or are they because of negligent entrustment?
Normally "negligent entrustment" is when someone entrusts property to a third person who then injures you. Claiming to be the incompetent person to whom the property was entrusted is an interesting legal theory but it may not fly in court. You don't say how the car was damaged.
You need to serve the initial papers on the registered agent and then what usually happens is they appoint an attorney to handle the matter. From there forward you would serve all your documents on the attorney representing the Corporation or LLC.
They put it at my fault because i was turning to the left when out of saddens a motorcycle hit my rear passenger side door but there was no damage in the motorcycle and the guy walking normal now I don’t have that much money what should I do what’s my opinions if anyone can help let me know...

MUCH MORE INFO IS NEEDED.
HOWEVER, THE PERSON TURNING LEFT IS USUALLY PRESUMED TO BE AT FAULT........BUT SO IS THE PERSON REAR-ENDING YOU.
I ASSUME THEY ARE SAYING NO SIGNAL BY YOU SO NO NOTICE OF TURN.
I SUSPECT THIS CASE WAS SOME TIME AGO AS IT TAKES A LONG TIME TO GET A... Read more »

you need a business litigation lawyer........
however, they normally don't handle cases like this on a contingency.............
soooo, you will have to come up with a retainer in all likelihood..
you can always fire your lawyer and get a new one or handle on your own.
the lawyer's name will be on the settlement check and he would probably set up a hearing before a judge to determine quantum meruit..........payment for what work he did
A California attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. Cases based on a cause of action for intentional infliction of emotional distress could be successful, but they can also be tough cases. Some firms could be reluctant to take handle them n a contingency... Read more »
v. Johnson & Johnson Consumer Inc.
A California attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for three weeks. You could research online to learn about the disposition of the case, and the law firms associated with it. Good luck

You need to sit down with an attorney who can analyze your situation. Were you in prison? Did you ever file a Government Tort Claim. These are other questions need to be answered in order for someone to see if you have any options still available.

You need to call and speak to a lawyer right away. This is not something you can resolve by posting on this forum. You will likely need to hire an attorney to have this resolved.
