If you're facing a small claims court case, it's important to prepare your defense thoroughly. Begin by gathering all relevant evidence that supports your side of the story. This can include documents, receipts, contracts, emails, photographs, or any other material that is pertinent to... View More
I am baffled as my cursory read of this topic suggests the answer is no. If the mother (i.e. my wife) tests negative for both gonorrhea and chlamydia (which she will) and the rate at which infants are born with conjunctivitis (pink eye) is <2% (materially less), then how could it be that my...

This doesn't sound like a product liability law question (the category chosen, which is more about injuries from dangerous products). You are probably not asking about non-legal aspects of taking photos when you mention taking photos "as the photographer" (as in technical attributes... View More
Who has the experience and results concerning such matters?
answered on Apr 4, 2024
It could be difficult for attorneys here to respond with an outline of their experience. There's no solicitation here - the format is limited to general legal responses from us. If you're looking to consult with an attorney or hire an attorney for a given matter, one option is to reach... View More

This is posted under Product Liability, which is a category more about injuries from defective products. There's a section in this forum called "Collections." If you reposted and added that category, you could have better chances of a response there. Good luck
If, in a federal civil action, a case is reassigned from a magistrate judge to a district judge and all hearing dates are vacated with the order that "motions must be renoticed for hearing before the judge to whom the case has been reassigned," does that mean the previously submitted... View More
answered on Sep 9, 2023
Generally, reassignment of a case does not mean it starts all over again. That goes for motions which were filed and presumably decided already. The rulings are considered the law of the case. Essentially, the new judge picks up where the former judge left off.
After visiting a dermatologist, I found out the person listed as an Educator was an Unlicensed stylist.
answered on Sep 8, 2023
Sorry to hear what happened to you. If the educator was the individual who applied (or misapplied) the hair product in question, you would arguably sue that person along with his or her employer (assuming the educator was acting within the scope of employment). In the meantime, take photographs... View More
I have the receipt, I took pictures of the barcode, etc. I also took the pictures of the bugs and what looked like holes within the black-eye peas.

If you are contemplating using an attorney, they would advise. If you are interested in handling the claim yourself, there are resources online. If you consult with an attorney, one of the first questions raised will be the extent of damages you suffered. I hope you're okay, but unless there... View More
So I ordered a drug reagent kit, it is used just for personal use to test drugs for illicit substances & other bad things that shouldn't be in there. There was no warning labels, there was instructions, but there was no dominant warning (small line), and no ingredient list whatsoever.... View More

Sorry to hear what happened to you. Unless you've a significant, permanent injury, the time and expense of a products liability lawsuit against the manufacturer / distributor of this reagent product would not be justified. In the future, probably best to avoid products sold over the web that... View More

it's a small vehicle accident claim less than 900 dollors. we just don't want her to come back later and say we owe her more.

It would be difficult for an attorney to guide you on drafting a release with the format here. It sounds like you want to handle the release yourself. There are boilerplate releases online. No one here can tell you, "Consult an attorney," or, "Save money and do it yourself."... View More
Car accident occurred almost three years ago am now getting sued about property damage done to public property. The letter contains bill invoice that explains they have already tried sending bill to collections in registered owner name. My question is ,am I as the driver eligible to be sued.
answered on Feb 14, 2022
I'm sorry for the alarming letter you received. In general, a driver can be sued if they are liable in the accident. Public entities such as departments of transportation, power companies, etc. do go after drivers for damage to their structures or equipment. As a starting point, you could... View More
On August 6, 2020 we had a huge house fire due to a defective recalled dehumidifier. The dehumidifier company, GREE, never notified the public about this recall. My family and I are living in a trailer on the front lawn since that time.

I'm sorry for your ordeal. You could search online for product liability attorneys - you could also use the Find-a-Lawyer tab in the upper left side of this page. Attorneys here can't reach out to you because this forum doesn't work like an attorney referral service. It sounds like... View More
answered on Jan 27, 2022
You could bring the matter to the attention of the manufacturer to alert them to a possible quality control problem. In terms of legal rights, you could preserve the clump and reach out to attorneys. However, attorneys are generally reluctant to handle such matters because they do not generally... View More
I am the third party in a product liability insurance claim. The claim was denied earlier this month and just yesterday, the adjuster called me wanting to "resolve" the claim by offering payment for "pain" from the injury.
Before the insured sent the complaint over to... View More
answered on Oct 4, 2021
When you state you're the "third party" I'm assuming you mean you're the claimant and not a third-party defendant. Regardless, as my colleague correctly advised, the claims adjuster's change in position can be due to many reasons. More likely than not, the adjuster... View More
If my case is in court like they told me. I've been waiting for years.
answered on Sep 19, 2021
You could ask your firm directly. It's a fairly straightforward inquiry. If you filed the case, then you already have an index number. If you had the law firm file (which is generally more common), you should be able to determine that an action is pending on your behalf through an index... View More

If you are talking about about a situation where you were injured from using a product that was defective or unreasonably dangerous in some way, you could reach out to product liability attorneys to discuss in greater detail. Good luck

A business owes me $600 and they do not want to pay me without a receipt but I only have one of the receipts can I win the money if I go to court
answered on Mar 30, 2021
It could be up to the judge. It's difficult to answer your question with certainty, because it could depend on the willingness of the court to look at other evidence in the file. Good luck
