It depends on what you mean by judgments. Are these court case judgments? If so, you may need to review the court file(s) to see what you could do to challenge them at this time. Are these on your credit report? Sometimes things get improperly reported and you can send in proof to the credit... View More

If you have a purchase agreement or other contract, you would need to review the terms of your agreement. Unless there is a fraud or another bad act, the Court will generally hold both parties to the terms of the written agreement so reviewing the contract is generally one of the first places to...

Contractor explained workers were at the wrong house. It was a mistake. I’ve given four months of opportunity for them to replace the porch as it was and they stayed there done but the porch is not as it was due. I have to pay them.

You would likely need to at least pay them for whatever work they did accomplish minus whatever reasonable damages still remain from what they did when they accidentally removed the porch. You would need to speak with an attorney about the specifics of your case to see if that is your best course... View More

The dealer did not disclose that it had a rebuilt title. We checked the CARFAX and it was a salvage title in Mississippi. The car has been having issues and is currently not operational.

If you purchased a vehicle that you at least knew had a salvage title, you would have known that some major repairs had to have been done on the vehicle in order to make it operational again after a total loss. You will want to review your purchase agreement in detail. If the vehicle was... View More
Some body told me that want help me financially and just asked me to buy something for her then she will give me 300$. She asked me for login and then did a quick deposit for 3300$, the bank returned the money to her but blocked my account for that reason.
I was reviewing accounts and realized I never invoiced a consumer for my services. A year has passed since the services, are they still legally bound to pay me?

Depending on the facts, you are still likely within the statute of limitations to collect the debt. Call the customer and explain the mistake. The customer shouldn't expect to get a free service when there was an agreement to pay. You may also need to talk with your tax professional to find... View More

Law enforcement is required to inventory when a vehicle is impounded. Any inventory found that is evidence of a crime can generally be used as evidence of that crime. That being said, law enforcement can't just claim they may have to do an inventory in the future when really they are doing a... View More

The dealer just contacted me and said they can't cash the check because they gave me the wrong name. What are the ramifications?
Thanks!

A court isn't likely to allow you to get a car for free from a dealership. You will likely need to work with the dealership and probably the bank to get this resolved.

We've responded by mail, said the debt is invalid, provided more information. What are our rights if they ignore/don't accept what we've sent? Can they sue, put a lien on our house, what?

I am 32 year old full-time student, and was told I had to be under 25 to receive the college student membership rate. Is that legal? I feel like I meet the criteria and have the same monetary situation as a college student, and don't think my age should be considered.
Thank you for your time.

They implement them out of kindness, good will in the community,... View More

Your question is too specific to be able to give an answer on a general message board like this. The best strategy for a case depends on the overall circumstances of the case.
