They did not disclose prior salvage history or its current salvage title prior to sale either on the description or during dialogue on sale day.
The only document I received regarding the purchase was an invoice that... View More

Did the auction company advertise this sale to you personally, or otherwise reach into North Carolina to attract North Carolina bidders? if not, you should look for an Oklahoma licensed attorney with automobile fraud experience to have a consultation with.

Can I sue for this?

answered on May 3, 2023
A North Carolina attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. Many law firms would be reluctant to handle such an injury case on a contingency basis. Due to the costs of litigation, most firms seek out cases with more clear-cut damages. Good luck
When the insurance company contact the office they hadn't even filed a report. Now they have increased my storage unit by almost 50 bucks. We have pictures of the locked being broke and none can tell us how long it has been this way.

You can sue them, the question is, will you win? First of all, your insurance company may be willing to take the lead on this. It's called "subrogation". They sue the responsible party to try and get a judgment for the money they paid out to you on the insurance claim plus your... View More

A North Carolina attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for three weeks.

I’m having issues with my scalp, hair loss (lots of it) doctor visits and etc. knowing this I’m feeling like I have been frauded and taken advantage of.

You will need qualified medical expert testimony that establishes the product caused your injury in order to have a good case. Product liability cases are very difficult to handle without a lawyer. I recommend you have a personal consultation with a personal injury lawyer to evaluate your case.
My hair is thinning and I have a bald spot that recently appeared. Prior to some hair loss my scalp has been irritated whenever I touched my hair. This concerns the recent lawsuit involving Johnson & Johnson.

answered on Jul 8, 2021
At your age you may wish to consider that having hair loss from whatever origin is unusual and you may want to consult an M.D. expert. Do not say you are interested in a case. Doctors don't like to be involved and you need a good diagnosis.
However to make a claim you need some reason... View More
I read article 39 14-313 under the distribution of tobacco products and you would think it would be no however with the new technology of vending machines being able to use age verification, Would there be a way to get around this legislation and put these vending machines anywhere?

answered on Mar 6, 2021
Unless the state permits that machine you would not be able to get the proper license to sell the product. It is unlikely, for many reasons, for that permission to be granted but you can always contact something like the American Enterprise Foundation to see if their legal arm is willing to... View More

There wasn't a question here, but if you're wondering if this creates the basis for a lawsuit, it would depend on damages. A court would look at what you suffered in terms of damages by taking one less pill as a standard dosage. Based on these brief facts, I don't see it as a case... View More
They acknowledged they dropped the ball with not locking my door, but only offered me $1000 when my losses were over $13000

answered on Dec 10, 2019
Ask for the 13,000. I assume you filed a police report and can document the value? Note that the value you'd get in court would be the value as they were. Tell them you expect the 13. Chances are they are trying to avoid an insurance claim.

Whether the document is notarized or not does not matter. This is a simple internal payroll issue.

May have an occupational disease or similar claim. Look for a member of the NC Assn for Justice who handles workers compensation and toxic exposure cases--they give free consults and could best advise your partner.

You may be able to sue to enforce the clear terms of the contract. If the roof repairs were described in that contract, you should contact a local real estate attorney to learn what action you may be able to take to seek relief.
The class action if lucky you'll get 500 dollars which is about 1 yr of protection actually defense can't protect now and it won't cover any time or aggravation or IRS protection from scammers but in small claims on and individual case could I ask for maximum pay out for local jurisdiction

You can try but they will likely fight it and the law is very complicated.

Breach of express and implied warranties or if you talked to them, warranties of fitness for a particular person. If you purchased because they advertised over there, you may be able to sue over there. Otherwise, you have to come here. You don't get travel expenses.
I walked outside my home two days ago to find my car gone. Towed because the HOA contracted a towing company to come by periodically to check for registered tags. But I got no notice for the tow.

You need to know what's wrong with it before you have a case. Just because it ran fine before doesn't mean it's fine now.
File a complaint with the HOA.
