No one wants my case why? I am really damaged, out of work & long way off from recovering.

It's difficult to guess what the thoughts of the attorneys who declined your case were. I'm sorry for your serious injuries. A general guess might be that they did not see it as a product liability matter, but as a failed weld. But that's only a general guess, and might not be the... View More
Recently purchased a snack cake from a retail store near my home. When I got home and opened it it seemed too odd smell to it. This was my first time trying it so I wasn't sure if that was the original scent. Tried a piece anyway and immediately spit it back out. Went through a process of... View More

You could consult with attorneys about compensation for your ordeal, but it does not look like a matter that most firms would handle on a contingency basis. I hope you're okay. It could be spoilage or tampering - it's hard to say for certain. The fact that the impact was short term would... View More
I want to sell a hair growth formula I created. It is a blend of 5 essential oils. I want 3 of them to be kept private.

A Florida attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. You ask for someone to call you. No one here can call you.

Sure does sound like the kind of fraud that you can make a claim for. If the purchase agreement specified it was an "AS IS" sale, that would be a defense - but that defense could fail in some limited circumstances of there being certain clear, provable representations made by the seller...

He claimed to have replaced the pump, that it has no mechanical issues, and the dealership told me the pump is failing and I need an engine replacement. I have physical proof of his claim, and the dealerships quote of 16k to repair the car.
answered on Oct 3, 2024
Have you changed the pump after they told you so? If so, you suffered the loss of at least the cost of a new pump. You can sue for them to pay you back.

Regardless of liability or lack thereof, your first step is to get a written repair estimate, then demand that the dealer pay it, and if they balk, say you're planning to take legal action. That may or may not work, but there's no downside to doing it. That said, whether the dealer is... View More
