A Michigan attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for three weeks. It isn't fully clear what caused the misunderstanding here - a local attorney could probably sort out better after reviewing the file in detail. But a financial institution can require insurance. Good luck
Insurance provider says my policy only pays my custodial care if I am physically in my facility. I can visit my family but they deduct for each day I am away which is 4 days per month. i.e. $1,200 per month.

This issue likely depends on the language of your insurance policy. First, ask the insurance co. to tell you which specific section of the policy applies. Then, to be certain of your rights, consult an elder law attorney.

A Tennessee attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks.

I want to know how legal it is. Also the entity receiving the claims has changed it's name multiple times and I want to know how legal that is as well. I already submitted it to the state with my evidence.

DMV was contacted, they don't offer... View More

This is not an unreasonable request since proof of ownership is an essential element of proof in your case. Your copy of your certificate of title ought to be sufficient.
At the time of the accident, I was actually on my own time, not having any active orders assigned to me by Instacart. The app was opened in the background on my phone, but I wasn’t paying any attention to it. I was heading back to the supermarket to use the facilities when the accident occurred.... View More

A Massachusetts attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for a week. Carriers can consider gig work to be non-personal use. An attorney could advise better with a copy of the carrier's denial. Good luck

Provide the hospital with a copy of the settlement agreement. In most instances, they will honor the limitation imposed by Chapter 55 and accept $50,000 on their lien claim.
I am in Minnesota and I have been unable to find a painter that is not booked out until the end of our season. I do have a letter from a painter who said he can paint my house first in the spring.

A Minnesota attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for three weeks. You could reach out to attorneys, but as a practical matter, your options also include continuing to seek a painter or another insurance carrier. Good luck
continued.. How can I demand the check. No explanation was given to me and no answer was provided to me when I signed and completed settlement paper. No settlement check was given to me. My house was fixed but there's still pending check due to me that was not given to me by my own lawyer.... View More

Your post is not very clear. Apparently, your attorney hasn't responded to your communications. If you have the check, it's made out to you and your attorney, and your attorney endorsed it, there should be no problem with your depositing or cashing it.
This is the ins of the vehicle that rear ended my vehicle and they are trying to negotiate the repair shop down and have them do the work in a manor that is not to the proper course of repair and bring my vehicle back to pre-loss condition.

A Mississippi attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. It's not uncommon for insurance carriers to be in contact the collision shop. The property damage adjuster could be interested in seeing the damage up close. Good luck

That is the Court's prerogative. The minor can file a request for a rehearing or even an appeal, but was the motion made? The minor apparently either needs an attorney or represent himself.

The owner of the lawnmower is liable, not the dealership, unless the dealership employed the guy mowing the lawn. This type of damage/incident is what is covered under your comprehensive insurance coverage. Call your insurance company.
The insurance company does not want to pay me. Also stating that I owe them money. Is this right? They've sent me a demand letter.

I since have had my license suspended and an sr-22 put on me because of the buyers failure to transfer the title in their name or register it. Why do I have to pay for their mistakes.

Not 100% sure of AZ law, but in CA, on sale, the seller sends a notice of transfer to the DMV in order to give notice of the sale of the vehicle. I recommend you contact several attorneys in your area that practice this type of law, as soon as possible. Thank you for using Justia ask a lawyer.
