Set up a consult with a Tennessee attorney before this develops further. It isn't something on which someone could advise based on these facts alone, and your post remains open for a month. A lot must have already happened for the matter to reach the judgment stage - maybe mail going to the... View More

It is possible to find judgments and court approved settlements. You would need to know where the case was filed- State Court or Federal. And then in what County or District. For Federal Court you can check online on the Pacer system.

Probably not a problem. Journal entry is not required and the Seal can be affixed later, but needs to be there prior to the instrument being used or relied upon. Notaries should sign their full names, but often do not.
What kind of contract should be written up?
answered on Sep 3, 2019
Basically that is up for negotiation. Some contracts say they pay for materials up front, some say a percentage of the total contract. Ask around. The contract is for the performance of services. If you are getting into that line of work you might want to invest in an attorney drawing up the forms... View More

You may wish to file an Action To Recover Personal Property in General Sessions Court. If not, you might as well abandon the items, because going there might be charged as Trespass. She might even charge you with Theft of Property if you take something.

Hopefully you have a Bill of Sale for needed information. You can sue the Seller for Fraud and Breach of Contract. But you will need some proof of the Salvage Title non-disclosure. You can also make a complaint against the Used Car Dealer with the State Regulatory Board against his Dealer's... View More
What are my options to keep my store open or what is important if I have to close?
answered on Dec 5, 2018
If you have insurance, you should make them aware of claim. The insurer may provide you with a defense. Also a seller has a number of defenses to a products claim. Not sure why you cant get insurance. May need to ask another agent to help you. I am assuming this means after this claim was made,... View More
2014 Mazda 3 purchased outright 2 months ago. Since then, I’ve noticed significant rust on its underbody. I haven’t been completely under there to take a look, but there is much more rust on its suspension parts than one would expect on a 2014 car. More rust than two 15 year old vehicles I... View More

If they knew or should have known, that's one issue. Check the VIN number and get a carfax report. They could have. Your better claim may be through the State AG's office of Consumer Affairs.

I was in a car accident on my way to work in my personal vehicle so it has nothing to do with work my employer now is saying after the Dr releases me to go back to work that I have to sign a liability waiver saying they are not responsible for any injuries should they occur on the job
answered on Dec 23, 2017
It's not illegal to ask you to sign a waiver, but before you do so, I would urge you to consult with a local attorney well-versed in workers' compensation law.
It's in Probate court now! I have Letter of Administration.

Depends on the circumstances but very often they can take a while. You need to sit down with the attorney and discuss what happens now that he is passed, etc.

answered on Jun 9, 2017
A lawyer can't give medical opinions. You need to follow up with the surgeon and/or your internists. You may have a case if the mesh is the problem. First find out what your problem is. Generally statute of limitations is one year if surgery in Tennessee. As to the case against the... View More

I am not aware of ANY limitation on the mark-up of automotive parts. If you have not yet paid them, I would confront them with the prices you've obtained and try to negotiate a reduction. If you have already paid them, you may still want to confront the management with all this information. If... View More

There is no question posted. However, unless your child had long term effects caused by the milk, it is not likely that an attorney would accept your case.
