A Michigan attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for a week. It could be difficult for attorneys here to offer their services to you - the forum isn't set up like a referral service. The format is Q & A. If you've already been searching, you could supplement your... View More

Your question does not indicate in what context a lawyer wanted your family history. I believe that I would need more information to provide a relevant answer to your question. Is this an attorney you are looking to retain for a personal injury accident, is it an attorney from an insurance... View More

Sue them for what? If the house was sold, you have no insurable interest in the property, even if you are still paying premiums on it. You would essentially double-dip if you already received the sale proceeds, and now you were to receive the insurance payout. That's like insuring your... View More

Do you have a workers comp attorney? Ask him or get one. I can set you up with one of the best in Michigan if you still need help.

A Michigan attorney could answer best, but your question remains open for three weeks. There's no controlling whether someone will sue or not. But based on your post, you have a strong defense. Keep all records and reports that support that your dog was not an aggressor. They'll be useful... View More

A Michigan attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. In a setting like this, there are no guarantees as to who a potential plaintiff would name in a lawsuit. If someone is merely inserting a script that the client provided without knowledge, that would probably be... View More

A Michigan attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for a week. Until you're able to consult with a local attorney, pain and suffering is generally an element of a bodily injury claim. It would depend on demonstrating the fault of the other party.

Only a Michigan attorney could advise, since states could differ as to PIP (personal injury protection) benefits, depending on the type of jurisdiction. But your question remains open for a week, and it sounds like you may be trying to arrange immediate medical care. In no-fault jurisdictions, the... View More

I believe you’re confusing rental property and condos. They are NOT the same thing, and the rules are distinct.

While there are FEDERAL rules about the disclosure of *LEAD* in both rentals and sales, there are no federal or state rules in Michigan about mold. For either condos or rental... View More

I would agree with you in theory. You probably should consider making a complaint with the specific hotel management. There may be some back-and-forth, but eventually an insurance company will become involved. Don't expect much: "pain and suffering" isn't the thing many people... View More

A Michigan attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. When it comes to defining "reasonable care," it can sometimes be open to debate. In a textbook sense, it is generally regarded as the level of care that a reasonably prudent person would use. The... View More

Go to the records department of the clerk of the court where the lawsuit was filed. You should be able to search by the case number or by the legal name of one of the parties.

In a court of law, you will have to prove each and every element of your case, which in this context means that any monies/reimbursement you are seeking needs to be proven to be related to the incident. If the attacker contends that what you have provided is insufficient (and a Court agrees) then... View More

A MIchigan attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. There probably is case law, but maybe not on the level of specificity described in your post. You might find a greater level of detail in standard operating procedures for the district or the school - manuals for... View More

There is, unfortunately, nothing other than reporting to the police. Perhaps try contacting the prosecutor's office; they are the ones who determine who to charge and with what, not the police.
