Second, they are only entitled to a peaceful repo without breach of the peace. If you had not given them the key, they would not have been able to repo the car at all.... View More

The fact that it is not notarized or has missing information is of no import. Incorrect info maybe/maybe not. Where you may win is fraud. You may have to file suit to do it, but if he made fraudulent misrepresentations about his boat, you should prevail.

The 'rent', was agreed to be in the form of our labor in working on the house, as well as paying for some materials. She has since served us with an eviction notice. This was a verbal only contract. The lady that evicted us has decided to sue us for $2500.00. What can we do?
answered on Jul 9, 2018
Hire a local civil lawyer ho handles civil litigation. Generally, agreements involving real estate are enforceable only if in writing. So, you may not be able to collect for your work but conversely, she likely can not recover her”rent” if everything was verbal.

I don’t believe there are any statues regulating the age at which a dog can be first sold, but health and safety concerns generally dictate they be at least 8 weeks old and some breeders wait up to 12 weeks before seeking them.
We did not sign a contract at the time of purchase... 7 months later the breeder sends a contract through the mail to us & is demanding we sign. Do we have to sign? & the breeder has already signed & back dated before the actually date of pick up.

They charged me for the cost of the electric bill plus an additional $65 dollar late fee. Technically, that fee is in the lease agreement but only for late rent. My rent was paid in full on time for the month.

Who was the contract withsnd who charged you fees not in the contract.
