Enough? Anything's possible I guess. The fact that your evidence is mostly emails and texts doesn't dictate whether you have a winning case or not. There are ways to get those into evidence, so the trier of fact can weigh it. But keep in mind evidence is not proof.

I suggest you first send a certified letter, both to the apartment and to the debt collector. The letter should clearly deny the alleged debt and explain in detail why you don't owe the debt. Importantly, the letter should also request how they calculated the $1,700 and what clause in the... View More

Your uncle could appoint you as his agent, giving you authority to act on his behalf. This does not necessarily need to be in writing, but under some circumstances, you might want to have it in writing. I don't know what it means to "trespass the undesirables from his property", so... View More

Apply for lost title with the secretary of state.

You can't prevent someone over 18 from doing any of those things in their own name unless you happen to have legal guardianship over them. It does not matter if they are your own biological children. Once they are 18, you have no legal right OR responsibility for them.

What does your contract say? What is ‘acceptable’ is largely dependent on what you agreed to and without seeing the documents it is impossible to say for sure.

You need to run mot walk to a local attorney who can review the documents and provide you real advice on this. You should... View More

There is a form that allows you to object to garnishments. Just Google "objection to garnishment Michigan". However there are only 5 permitted objections and one "catch all" objection.

1. the funds or property are exempt (protected) from garnishment by law.

It probably depends upon the wording of the lease. The leases that I prepare for a particular landlord typically provide that the door, which generally requires more maintenance than the non-moving parts of the building, is the tenant's responsibility.

I'm not sure you will be able to do so. While I can appreciate the circumstances you found yourself in, when you sign a general release, you're pretty much stuck with it. Think of it this way: if it were easy to get out of those releases, there would be no point in signing them.

I take it the boyfriend's name is also on the deed? There's only three ways to proceed: 1) get him to agree to take the house and refinance the mortgage into his name; 2) get him to agree to just sell the house and split the proceeds, or 3) petition the court for an order to sell the... View More

What is your question? It sounds like your best course of action would be to address this issue with your university. Perhaps to the head academic advisor or to a dean of students. Many universities also have departments and deans specific to international students.

You can't create a DPOA for someone who is now incapacitated. These documents require capacity (e.g. knowing what you are doing and signing). Once incapacitated, you'll need to look into a guardianship.

If the place is immediately 're-rented' likely no, you won't owe additional.

You may be liable for 'damages' but if there were no damages ....

HOWEVER, before relying on this it would be wise to have a local lawyer review your lease and all the facts to... View More

Depends on what type of background check they want to do. You may, of course, decline to give your SS#; the church may then elect not to do the background check or offer you the position you are seeking.

I'm unsure what an attorney can do for you. It would not be filed with any government entity, and so if the management no longer has a copy, and you can't find yours, you may be stuck.

Since others are having the same issue, and management appears willing to acknowledge they did... View More

This sounds like a breach-of-contract claim. The devil is in the details, and there are more details than I can list in this format. Who would be the defendant? Is there a written warranty by the seller regarding the merchandise? Where is the defendant? Is there jurisdiction here in Michigan?... View More

It appears from the facts you have written that you were entitled to your tools back. Were you to file suit in court, it would be called a claim and delivery complaint. I hope that helps you. The problem is the cost of filing and prosecuting a lawsuit.

The contractor appears to be asserting a mechanic's lien, which is a possessory lien on goods that were worked on. The contractor would have a lien on the goods to secure payment of work done on the goods. You apparently dispute the value or scope of the services. You can sue the... View More

Initially, I suggest you write a letter to the seller and copy the agent. The letter should point out the defects and make a specific demand for reimbursement. After they ignore or reject your demand, you may then consider legal action. However, since you did not point out the defects during the... View More

Next time get it in writing. Ask for time and material records to see if the records come close in value to the sub's claim.
