If you are in default on your auto loan the financing company can repossess your car. And it appears they intend to do just that.

Really? Please be sure to know that we lawyers do not remember you or your question. How about staring at the beginning and asking the original question again?
He is aggressive and violent as well but no domestic violence has been filed on my part. What rights legally do I have to get him out?
answered on Jun 17, 2019
You have equal rights to the leased property without a court order based on domestic violence. Either move and notify to our landlord in writing that he has a dog and is violent, or file a protective order.

Assuming that you had the expensive dental work done the written documents you signed allow the dentist and the creditor to collect the money you agreed to pay from you; it doesn't matter what you were told before the procedure. If you are unhappy about the interest rate, contact a Louisiana lawyer.
I gave them a bad review on Facebook
answered on May 21, 2019
Whether what the builder did was "legal" is impossible to say without much more information. I will note that there is very little difference between what you did (post a bad review online) and what you say the builder did in response (posted pictures of your signed contact online.)
I did not know about the loan put on the car but I am part owner and they did not ask for my signature.
answered on May 7, 2019
If the title to the car is written the same way most are, the two owner names are either unconnected or are separated by the word "or" which in either case means the car is owned equally by the owners. If so, then each owner can sell the car, or possibly take out a loan against the car;... View More

I am not sure what you are asking. Can you please elaborate? In general, it is not uncommon for a credit to seek a confession of judgment in exchange for standing down on collection efforts for a period of time. The idea is if the debtor fails to become current on the debt, the creditor saves the... View More
Is there a clause of some sort I can add to performance agreement so that performers aren't allowed to perform 90 days before my event.
answered on Apr 15, 2019
You can try to add anything you want, but if there is already an agreement in place the other side will have to agree to allow you to add the new language.

If you have the title--and if it is still in your name only--there is no need to "repo" the bike. If the title is already in your friend's name you will have to take appropriate steps to repossess it.
Yesterday my wife & I both had a treatment session with this doctor who made us sign his paperwork which stated in his ad that there would be no charge if he did not get at least 50% relief during the first visit or he would not take one on as his patient. During both of our treatments, he... View More

You are probably not going to get any answer here because lawyers must have a chance to read the written documents comprising the contract for future visits before advising you. Contact a local lawyer.
I live in fl, lost my job so I can no longer take the apartment in Louisiana.
answered on Apr 4, 2019
Since the lease term does not begin until August you have much more time to work this out with the new landlord than it should take; and the landlord has a great deal of time to find another tenant too. Get on it.

Unless the house still has a mortgage on it, I am tot sure who "they" are, and why "they" are requiring you to pay rental insurance. IMO the most important issue here is to remain in the house until the deed is changed to your name. That will probably require court action, i.e. probate.

There is no law requiring that you hold property for a minimum time before re-selling. However, tax consequences could differ on income/capital gains. You should address that scenario, and your specific circumstances, with your CPA.
Your Question:edit text
I partially signed a lease, but I didn’t have a guarantor. I didn’t want to stay in apartments anymore. I want to know, can this lease still be valid. Also my roommates signed for the same apartment unit and their rent is $550. When I talk to them about not... View More
answered on Aug 28, 2018
The answer depends on the exact language of your lease. However, generally, when you sign a document, you are agreeing to its terms. A guarantor is typically required by the lessor; and provisions of a contract which exist to protect the lessor may not be relied upon by the lessee to invalidate the... View More

As with most legal questions, the devil is in the details when it comes to contract validity.
Most contracts don't require notarization or witnesses, nor do they need to be written, in order to have effect. Writing your agreement is almost always advisable, since it memorializes the... View More

Give your insurer power of attorney to deal with your lien holder.
Who was found at fault in the accident?
Is it acceptable and legal to park the vehicle and call the lessor for them to pick the vehicle up?
answered on Jul 22, 2018
He would be better off having it towed, rather than having them pick it up because their fee will be huge.
