This car has been iny possession since 2014 and I cannot title or use it and cannot get ahold of the owner. I have called the... View More

This sounds dumb but.......if he owned a house look up his ownership--may have had a wife. Try facebook---a surprising amount of time that works. Try Intelius.
You are looking to give him money--you want to make sure though it's him. At this point you don't want to handle it by... View More
I have a 2003 Toyota tundra which is one of the highest risk for the airbags to explode, because it is a older vehicle. Also areas that are very hot as have high humidity raise the conditions of exploding.

Get it fixed. That's your damage claim. You want to file a class action? Talk to an attorney who handles product liability class actions. But your payout will be what it costs to have it fixed.
He says he has it but he keeps blowing me off with lame excuses.

This is probably not an issue of criminal law. If you released the item to him voluntarily it is not a crime ... unless there is some reason to question the effectiveness of your consent. For example if he tricked you in the first place and never had any intention of fixing it, then it could be... View More
I was driving a rental car covered with a credit card LDW. I was rear-ended by a driver on the highway. She said she did not have her insurance documents on her but gave me her license and phone no. information. Now she is unreachable. Meanwhile, the rental company wants me to file for a claim....

My suggestion is that you can file the paperwork you have for the wreck with The Department Of Public Safety for Texas and they will place a driver license hold on her eligibility until she decides to get off her hump and help you resolve the claim. The insurance company for the rental should be... View More
My landlord hired a roofing company to fix the roof of our leased townhouse. The roofing company did not cover the roof when it began to rain.

You need a lawyer to sue these folks, which means the landlord and the roofing company. Let the court case determine who pays, between the two of them. Look up Landlord Tenant lawyers in the Texas city closest to you, on SuperLawyers. com
If I buy an item , let's say it is a notebook, a cartoon action figure maybe for example from its manufacturer or distributer.
Will there be any legal issues for me selling that item lets say on a website like amazon or ebay ?
I heard that the rule of copyrights is just for... View More

The details of what you are selling are missing. Let's say that this is a knock-off purse, that LOOKS like the genuine article. But, is counterfeit.
You cannot buy it from a site, like Amazon, and then sell it, if you are aware that it is a knock-off.
If all licensing fees... View More

If the product is sold in your state you can sue in your state. But you won't be making a product claim without a lawyer,
and it'll be tough without the product. So you can contact a member of the Texas Trial Lawers Assn that handles product liability cases--they give free consults.
answered on Jul 18, 2017
If you have the product and the manufacturer does business here, possible to sue here. Otherwise, cherchez un avocat Francais (look for a French lawyer).

Not clear what you are asking--if she won she would have received funds then unless it went on appeal. You need to find out what went on, then contact a member of the Texas Trial Lawyers who handles death cases.
My brother went to the dodge dealership because his breaks were going out and he needed a part to fix them. They said that they would be in the next day (Friday) and when he went they told him they wouldn't be there till Saturday. When he went Saturday they said they had a system problem and... View More

probably not. He can say he had a sudden emergency. He should refer all callers to his car insurance. But
to answer your question, if he was concerned about his brakes the law will say he shouldn't have driven.

Could be anyone in the chain, depending on the product. Why not contact a member of the Texas Trial Lawyers Assn and see what they say?
I have the things and took a pic but the blood is merely a dot nothing big yet its rusty and could have disease . I want to see about a case

If you found the razor then crumpled bag it's on you. Did you notify the restaurant? It's on you to follow up to avoid infection. It's hard to make a case for injuries is you can't prove what happened. If your cut heals, then ask them for the medical bills and a small amount.

The statutes of limitations vary from state to state. If you have had a revision surgery to repair or replace the knee replacement implant that may make a difference. I would consult with an attorney who is handling the cases that match your implant producta. For example, was your product (the... View More

If the only cause of your injury is the defective product, then the manufacturer, distributor could held liable. On the other hand had the doctor known that this product was defective, recalled or otherwise unsuitable for implantation, then this could be a deviation from the standard of care... View More
I purchased a new set of LG washer and dryer in March 2016 from Home Depot. I bought the extended protection plan with them. The washer ruined a lot of my clothes and towels. They're only wanting to reimburse $250. Can I get more? Could this be a class action?
answered on Jan 27, 2017
Contact the insurance commissioner and see if they think coverage should pay for replacement value or market value.
answered on Nov 12, 2016
I'm not hearing you were injured. Save it in a freezer if you want to make a complaint; however if it didn't cause you harm you don't have damages--you can only make a claim if you were harmed (you don't get to make a claim for what could have happened).. Obviously you will want... View More

Send the claim to the station with a copy, and ask them to forward the copy to their carrier. If they are a franchise (shell, Exxon, BP etc) send a claim to corporate. That doesn't get a response file a small claims case. Most attorneys would say this is the one time we say may as well do it... View More
They told us it was treaded in for an up grade to a newer stove. Also guarantied it for 30 days, but when we tried to get someone here to fix the stove we could not get anyone to come out or even return our call. The stove has a burner that is broken at the connection causing an ark. It was just a... View More

Ask them to pick up and refund or take them to small claims, claiming that it didn't meet what they represented, that they are people who deal in stoves so you relied on their word.
