The babies footprint or full name. Especially if this person is not the parent of the child or does that fall under the first Amendment and they can still legally get it?
answered on Jun 30, 2022
The wording of your question is a bit confusing: are you asking if you, as an adult, can get a child's name or footprint tattooed on you? If that's the case, then yes, you can. You can effectively get whatever you want tattooed on you. Now, what you can't do is force the baby to... Read more »

Probably not. Look, insurance is a business. It is probably not worth their while to fully investigate what might have happened, especially when clearly, the insurance company is paying a claim anyway, just to save a few bucks.
It is pre-arranged; insurance companies are most collision... Read more »

I concur your best results will be with a local real estate attorney in your corner.
But be prepared to provide that lawyer with facts like a copy of the judgment, who 'they' are and why YOU can't just install the culvert and charge them the cost (I assume because they did... Read more »

You could start with an attorney-drafted letter, but you may more expeditiously move for enforcement of the court's order. Either way, you'd be wise to hire an attorney.
It's been going on for about a year but has gotten really bad recently. If I play music on a portable speaker, in my apartment, between 12pm-7pm, they stomp heavily on my ceiling. I turn down before sundown. It's not even very loud though. I can converse at a normal level right next to... Read more »

A Michigan attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for four weeks. At this point, you could consider reaching out to a landlord-tenant attorney to advise of your options. They should have insight into the issues you raise, along with what remedies may be available to you. Good... Read more »
Hi; I bought a foot soak off Amazon, and after I used it all the skin on my feet peeled off. It wasn’t enough to cause bleeding, but it was quite alarming. After looking at the product again, I noticed the ingredients listed on the product for sale, were not the ingredients in the product I... Read more »

Possibly. You should look into an attorney who does civil litigation around the consumer protection act or products liability.

I assume you contacted the police? If so, you'll probably need a copy of the police report to show fraud on any of your financial accounts. Other than that, let the police do what they do.
I used a process server. They were unsuccessful. The skip search came back with the address i already had. I motioned for alternate service and was denied.

Use a different process server and one that will provide an affidavit as to their efforts.
Skip search address came back for the address i already had. I got a postal verification but i haven’t heard anything back it’s been weeks.

Are you waiting to serve by certified mail? You may need to hire a process server.
I was served in regards to an old debt. The debt is mine, but I'm unsure if the amount is correct as I paid part of it in the past. Most of what I've read says to deny the complaints just to make them prove its actually mine and that the amount is correct. Is this a good idea? Solosuit... Read more »

You just posted on line that "the debt is mine". Be careful now denying to the court that the debt is yours.
Depending on the amount of money the debt collector is suing you for, you should consider hiring a lawyer.
There are legal defenses available to you that you may... Read more »
Hello, a few years ago I was on probation. An officer came to my home and arrested me on an alleged probation violation. I was taken to the local county jail, processed booked and placed in a holding cell. An hour or less goes by, they come and tell me I'm being released. Someone made a... Read more »

It doesn't sound like unlawful imprisonment when a probation officer acted under color of law (e.g. alleged probation violation) to arrest you.
Never had the opportunity to get my items until after the car was already gone from the tow yard. Car was sold by the time I got there. Items in trunk weren't recoverable which is over 3k in golf equipment. Company who did the tow falsified document saying I collected those items from trunk.... Read more »

I suggest small claims court. It is inexpensive and quick. But you are going to have to have proof, (perhaps other witnesses), of the items that were in your vehicle. And values. For example the golf equipment, I suggest you provide the original receipts and then printouts of the same equipment... Read more »
Had a joint mortgage with my ex wife and 2 years ago I was bought out ($40,000) and she was supposed to refinance and put the house in her name. 2 years later, she still has not refinanced and got my name off the mortgage.

Your next legal steps will be dependent upon the terms of the divorce decree. You may have to go back to court and motion the court to enforce the terms of the agreement.
Nothing has occurred yet, but I have gotten myself into a tough situation and am making sure I'm informed on the potential consequences.

Yes, generally you can pay off the lien. Whether you can make payments will depend on the creditor.
It was 3 increments of money I don’t have specific proof of. Vague texts and the proof of withdrawal from my account but nothing showing it went to him
answered on Feb 2, 2022
You might consider talking to a lawyer about this directly, but do a little research first through a legal aid website, on how to file a small claims lawsuit. That might help you direct your questions if you find a lawyer willing to answer a few questions. You could certainly hire a lawyer to help... Read more »

What is your question? Should you accept or not? There are consequences (e.g. who pays attorney fees) for rejecting the evaluation amount and having a different amount ordered at trial. Typically, the evaluation offer will be pretty close to what you could expect through trial.
I do have a past domestic charge that I Pled guilty too but if I was to get that expunged, would that help me get into the public service field?
answered on Oct 21, 2021
Not necessarily. Police departments do a more comprehensive background check than most employers. A domestic violence charge - regardless of underlying facts - is going to be highly scrutinized by any law enforcement agency. Not saying you can't become a police officer, but you need to be...

You can go ahead and file. Just keep in mind that even if you are right, in a civil matter, a judgment comes down to a piece of paper that says Person A owes Person B x-amount of money. You still need to collect it through legal means.
