Also didn’t sign it, tons of work wasn’t completed nor happy with. I paid majority but the extra fees they are trying to add on never happened nor was I advised until day we met in person. Never signed a change order like I did previously.
answered on Jan 24, 2024
In Nevada, the situation where a construction company adds fees to a final invoice without providing a change order, agreement, or obtaining your signature raises concerns regarding the legitimacy of those additional charges. If significant work remains incomplete and you are dissatisfied with the... View More
I have been making payments to the creditor bank (not dealership in-house financing), and that bank just informed me that the car paid-in-full (as does my account statement), and they said it was due to some fraud on the dealerships side. The dealership has paid off that debt. Does this put me in... View More
answered on Nov 15, 2023
It sounds like the dealership may have committed fraud by fraudulently obtaining financing for the car. As a result, the creditor bank has paid off the debt, and you are now the vehicle owner outright. You are not obligated to pay the dealership anything further.

If the resume builder had technical errors that directly impacted your job search, you might have a claim for breach of contract or negligence against them. The crux would be proving damages – in this case, missed employment opportunities due to their errors. In the immediate term, consider... View More

n Nevada, if you are in the middle of a fixed-term lease (e.g., a 12-month lease), your landlord cannot increase the rent or any fees unless it's specifically stipulated in the lease agreement. However, once the lease term ends and if you move to a month-to-month tenancy or sign a new lease,... View More
Is the contract voidable if not met? Reasonable timeframe? Please help
answered on Oct 4, 2023
If a specific provision is included in a contract, such as an agreement by the dealer to fix or replace a certain item, that provision generally creates a contractual obligation. If one party does not uphold their end of the agreement, the other party may have grounds to claim breach of contract.... View More

In Nevada, if a fire in a storage unit was caused by someone's negligent or reckless behavior, especially if they were living in the unit against the facility's policies, you may have grounds to pursue a claim for damages. Typically, the liability can fall on the person who caused the... View More

answered on Sep 13, 2023
Yes, you can possibly sue the person who caused the fire for negligence or gross negligence. Gross negligence is somewhat harder to prove but could give rise to punitive damages if you sustained bodily injuries from the fire.
There are strategic reasons why you might not choose to sue... View More
Is this a binding price? Excluding any document and processing fees. The ad includes VIN number and all car details.
answered on Jul 18, 2023
In general, advertisements are considered invitations to make an offer, not binding contracts themselves. However, there are exceptions and legal principles to consider. In Nevada, if the ad includes the VIN number and all the car details, it might be seen as a specific offer rather than a mere... View More

Hi there,
We've rented a campervan in Las Vegas for 23 days and the owner has ruled in his contract that we are not allowed to drive on dirt roads with exception 1/4mile to/from campgrounds.
Otherwise he will claim 100% of the 1k deposit.
We have returned the car safe... View More

There is no law which prohibits the parties from agreeing to such a term in a rental agreement.
I would like to read the article of The United States Constitution which defines Treason and how it is punishable.

You could find it in Article III, Section 3. " ...adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort." Good luck
actually $63000. am i entitled to the $5000 difference?
answered on Jun 9, 2023
Probably not. This is an issue of mutual mistake. You are not entitled to take advantage of another's mistake. The facts you gave said an APPROXIMATE value of $68000, this seems to be close enough to the actual value of the policy. This case arises under CONTRACT law. You need to discuss with... View More

The short answer to your question is: Likely not.

I was never notified and NEVER missed a payment. Furthermore they applied my payments to the wrong account equaling 7000. Do I have any recourse?

You can file claims with the three credit bureaus to correct the record. If they do, problem solved. If not, file suit against the company to correct the error.
My wife's uncle is embezzling funds from a trust. He wants to have her sign a new trust. In the original trust, A, he has full discretion over funds. In trust fund B, he does not. He wants to merge trust fund B into trust fund A, so he can steal it.

You should contact an attorney familiar with trusts and estates that can review the two trusts you make reference to and provide legal guidance. You don't mention the type of trust (revocable, irrevocable, etc.), and you mentioned the merging of the trusts and dissolution (of I guess trust B).... View More
