As my colleague advises, ask your assigned defense attorney for their input. They're going to probably tell you to consult with an outside counsel whose interests are solely yours. But that can cost money. Find out as much as you can from your defense counsel what they foresee in terms of the... View More

You apparently were found guilty of lack of financial responsibility since you paid a fine. Why did you not hire an attorney? It might be possible to set aside the Sessions Judgment, but very doubtful. Contact DOS and see what it takes for reinstatement. Also hire a competent attorney.
He was pulled over for speeding. He did not have a physical copy of his ID but did provide a phone picture of front and back. He has his registration. We renewed the insurance immediately and the cop said we would get a warning if the agent confirmed it. He changed his mind and gave him a court... View More

That will not work. Hire an attorney to take him to Court and handle all charges at once. Hopefully he gets insurance proof or the TNDL might be suspended as well as jail.

That is the Court's prerogative. The minor can file a request for a rehearing or even an appeal, but was the motion made? The minor apparently either needs an attorney or represent himself.
Is that legal. Its paid.

If a denial of claim is asserted, then you might consider an Insurance Bad Faith Refusal Action.
Our first claim was due to under ground pipe burst. We had to move out of our home for 6 weeks. During that time our house was vandalised once and broken into 2. We would like to remain with our insurance company instead of being cancelled.

Check the terms of your policy. That will tell you whether they can cancel. It may be time to find another company.

If your insurance does not cover the whole amount of damages you'll have to file a lawsuit against the driver/parents to try and recover a judgment for damages. But you can't force the police to issue citations.

You did not state this, but it sounds like your grandmother has passed and there are things still in her name, such as these life insurance policies.

You could be fined; however, I have found the courts to be friendly to you if you demonstrate that you have acquired insurance when you appear at court.

Initially you must read the insurance contract and the policy declarations. Then I recommend hiring an attorney for assistance in filing the Proof of Loss. This is a public forum.
