A Tennessee attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. If they have receipts or invoices, those could help clarify expenses and the breakdown of disbursements in the file. Good luck

You have to cross examine the LEO when he testifies against you. Does not sound like heresay for all of those facts, but probably some of it is. Without an arrest I doubt enough damages exist for a civil rights suit. Some other lawyer might want to sue, but I would not.
Multiple promises in writing, asked Corp multiple times for transcripts, recordings & notes for all interactions with representatives that I supposedly had access to as customer, I have large amount of those interactions & asking to compare in order to solve who is at fault to no avail......

That sounds like a potential breach of contract action on each refund. Possible class action. But it sounds like you have no evidence. Consult with an attorney. But be advised it may not be a TN jurisdictional matter.

If this is a TN case, then you are about to run out of time under the SOL. Health Torts require a Good Faith Claim Affidavit PRIOR to suit. Unless you find a malpractice lawyer immediately that can find someone to assert negligence, you have already lost. The potential damage award may not... View More

That would be a GTLA suit which few lawyers know how to file. It appears that you do not have any damages, so I do not recommend filing suit.

That would probably be a good Tort cause of action Wrongful Death (civil conspiracy). But the auto insurance may be the only recoverable monies. or the Policy may exclude criminal liability. Do not go beyond a year from the incident until you sue. There does not have to be a criminal... View More
Afterwards he was trying to bite the mom and pull her hair. She said he got violent alot. My granddaughter had to get a tetanus shot and antibiotics. Would it be worth it to file a lawsuit?

A Tennessee attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. In terms of medical bills and any lost wages stemming from the accident, that would usually be handled as a workers' comp case. In terms of a personal injury action related to the bite, she could reach out to... View More

Since no arrest, only a short stop and detainment, damages are minimal. The Tickets(Citations) must be dismissed by the Court. So you need an attorney to go to Court on the Rule Of The Road Violations, and an attorney that knows GTLA law so a Federal Civil Rights Suit can be brought, or at... View More

There is no "average" settlement amount. It all depends on how much you have been damaged and how good your attorney is in convincing the other side of the risk and exposure. The amount of insurance coverage also determines, including your own "under insured motorist" coverage.... View More

Those are two different causes of actions, so two different demand letters, by the respective claimants only, would be better. But you definitely need an attorney. There are tons of PI lawyers, but on a rear ender with good liability, any decent lawyer should be able to handle it. Damages are... View More

Gathering and preserving evidence at this point is vital should a lawsuit be filed in the future.
