Was a report made, also in Mississippi you need to prove how the oil got there, how long it had been there and if the establishment had any knowledge of the area before the fall occurred. You need to contact an attorney... View More

Thank you for reaching out, however, I cannot truly answer this question. Since you are represented you need to make an appointment to sit down face to face with the attorneys you hired and get a firm timeline.

This is a tricky one, because it sounds as though it may come dangerously close to being one, not to mention there is a question as to whether the defendant's "offer" could be discharged via bankruptcy or some other means. That being said, I'd be curious to know whether there... View More

You need to seek consultation with an attorney in your area to discuss your rights and claim for... View More

Under MS law, you would have only 1 year to sue a police department. However, they do not have a time line in which to complete an investigation as toward charging the person with a crime. Your injury claim may be barred against your neighbor as well as it is going to be defined as a intentional... View More

No--regardless of whether or not you can recover money from an accident, if you are injured you should seek medical attention for your injuries.

I got checked out and have an antibiotic. May need to get rabies vaccine if I don’t have proof that this dog was vaccinated. I contacted the owner and she is stalling and lying to me about everything it seems. I am nice, but I did nothing wrong in this situation.

You may have a case against the dog owner, especially if the dog had previous indications of being violent. If that is the case, then you could potentially sue the owner for damages, to include medical bills and vaccinations. I would highly encourage you to reach out to a personal injury lawyer to...

A Mississippi attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for three weeks. This is not a personal injury matter. You need to contact a criminal defense attorney; if you can't afford one, contact the Public Defender's Office. Good luck
