Can my parents take my phone if I am 15 and I bought the phone under my own name and with my own money. If they take it away is that stolen prop
answered on May 3, 2019
Whether it is "stolen" or not, I'm guessing there's at least a fair reason the phone was taken from you, even though you seem to disagree with that reason. At 15 years old, you are probably still considered a "minor" which means you are too immature to have certain... View More

You need to figure the cost of repairing the damage vs cost of hiring an attorney. I don't know of any that would take that on a contingent fee.
However if it's provable and you have collision coverage or general property damage coverage, why not file a claim with your insurance... View More
They say they have one common word trademarked! HOW can this be, with that word, which is used by many.
Can we keep our non profit name?

Have they actually filed suit (in which case, you are being sued), or did they merely send a threatening letter? I doubt you are in actual legal jeopardy of losing the word, “Heroes”, from you company name or losing a damage suit in court. My guess is that they are trying to scare you into... View More

Assuming that you broke your tooth on a piece of bone or something else that should not have been in the Turkey Jerky, you have a claim. Not to minimize what happened, but the problem you may have in finding a lawyer is what appears to be the limited nature of your injury. You should contact a... View More

Most likely but sounds like you need to get a second opinion (don't mention you are thinking about a case).,

I stored items at a friends house in a non using basement he said I could keep there for a few years until my baby started school now 8 months later he's saying it needs to be out or he's throwing it away. What's the legal process that must happen if any? Can he just throw it away?
answered on Jun 12, 2017
If you don't get it after he gave notice, yup. Find someone else to store it but get it out of there.
I'm pretty sure it was defective. Who would I sue to pay my medical bills - the owner of the softball park or the maker of the bleacher?
answered on Oct 30, 2016
Either or both. If the owner should have known,the owner. Hopefully you photograpthed the seat. Contact a member ofthe Maryland Assn for Justice--they give free consults.
I'm in a quandary. A long time ago it was pounded into my head that dietary supplements were not controlled by the FDA and therefore did not require a prescription. Now Aetna has taken roughly 10% of its formulary and declared them over-the-counter, yet they are not available over-the-counter.... View More

This cases are a challenge in the first place for a lot of reason. Certainly, the fact that you were not prescribed the medication is going to create an additional significant hurdle to your chances of recovery.

I have to give you the standard lawyer answer: it is hard to say. In the fast majority of cancer cases, you are going to need to file a lawsuit to get a recovery. So, and I'm sorry, it really depends on the facts of the case, who you believe is liable, how strong the case is, and so forth.
I am a defendant in a law suite filed for lead paint poisoning on a child. He filed suite against me on his 21st birthdad that was 11/29/2010. Can he now amend the complaint to include my wife after the statute of limitation has run out?
answered on Jul 5, 2011
the law of the state where the suit or where the alleged misconduct occurred will govern. I dont know maryland law but it depends on the allegation against your wife and her involvement in the alleged incident. statutes of limitations generally have exceptions that are spelled out by the state law.
