You may have to sue your friend - small claims if its $5k or less is fairly simple. Keep those text messages and defiantly print them out when you go to the hearing along with all the other non-related texts between you.
I just want to file a request for a protection order
answered on Aug 3, 2020
You can file for a protective order (a relief from abuse order in family court) without a lawyer. The important thing is to write out an affidavit carefully that includes why you are in fear for your physical safety. Forms are available at the courthouse or at the judiciary website.
A little over a yr ago I had to have some dental work done at Cloud dental in St. Albans. The procedure was was anything but desirable. It started off with being demanded to produce a pregnancy test before I could have any work done, even after I explained that I had had a hysterectomy yrs prior.... View More

A Vermont attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for a month. As a general matter, doctors or dentists are free to choose who they treat. There are exceptions to this premise under a doctor-patient relationship. And there are settings where a third-party relationship where a... View More

You should start with a consultation with a tax attorney. Just stay away from the places you see advertised on TV. You do not want to just start filing returns. If you were not entitled to a refund you will be assessed several penalties as well as interest. Working with a tax attorney will... View More
My cup ashtray caught on fire, nearly giving my husband a heart attack, and burning both our fingers. he is on ssi for a panic disorder. We called dollar tree who said their claim department would contact us. I was wondering with a fire and a mental disorder involved how much should I ask for?
answered on Dec 10, 2019
mental distress claims are really difficult and technical. Contact some injury attorneys and get an estimate. If you didn't get medical treatment the answer is very little at all.
Doctor knew the information was false but still didn’t remove it which is also libel

It could be libel. It depends on the substance and context, which could mean the difference between mere medical inaccuracy and damage to one's character and reputation. Good luck

I was left out of most conversations about where my money was put into. And pretty much all conversations about my lawsuit that was settled. This specific lawsuit took 2 years too finish.

Someone was representing you and has a fiduciary duty to you. They must explain, give you documentation. An attorney has additional duties.

There won't be a probate until someone steps up and petitions to be appointed executor of the estate.
I received a demand letter from an attorney, whose client was alleging he ate cannabis edible cookies he found in my mailbox, the week before Christmas. On the alleged date of his injury, we were not home, and had no knowledge of any cookies. We do live in a legal state (Vermont), and occasionally... View More

This is a bit bizarre but nonetheless you should not give the attorney anything but turn it over to your homeowners and let them handle it. They will hire an attorney for you if you are sued. By the way no more posting on social websites--this one included. Good luck.
Hi, this probably isn't a request you get often but I'm in desperate need of some help. I'm in the middle of a law midterm and I'm searching for a landmark supreme court case in which someone is arrested and their cell phone is seized. The phone isn't locked and the... View More

If this is a school assignment, then you should not be obtaining assistance from an outsider. I believe this is a violation of your honor code.
Our registered Trademark is LuGinDee to sell cooking aprons and t-shirts online. Per a Google search of our name, it was discovered that the typeset is not correct. If you look at the justia.com listing for our name, you will see what we mean.

I have H4 visa. Got selected in H1B and got i797a approval. But my change of status (cos) is not done yet. Can i re-enter on my valid H4 visa ?
answered on Jan 27, 2019
Your better option is to apply for an H1B visa, based on the I-797A approval notice. Then, you will be able to bypass the change-of-status delay and re-enter the USA as an H1B worker.
This answer assumes you did not violate your H4 visa status prior to leaving the USA, for example... View More
supervised. Is the school immune from liability as a government entity?
answered on Jan 6, 2019
I do not practice in Vermont, but I noticed your question hasn't been picked up in four weeks. I hope your son is okay. Check with a Vermont personal injury attorney, as many give free consults, and when you do, ask about notice of claim issues. In many jurisdictions, school districts,... View More

There are legal writing services, but they are generally smaller, and can be harder to find than the companies that sell out-of-the-box legal forms. Some attorneys hold themselves out for project-based work writing appellate briefs, memorandums, and other documents and pleadings. If you found one... View More
I'm having a hard time finding an answer for this question.

I see the state of... View More

This is not an immigration question. You need to consult with a criminal attorney.
answered on May 9, 2018
It depends. If you are convicted of a drug offense, for example, you could be deported. On the other hand, a petty theft conviction may have no effect on your ability to qualify for a green card.
answered on May 9, 2018
This could result in you being deported from the United States.
answered on May 9, 2018
Generally, this prevents you from adjusting your status to green card holder in the US with certain exceptions. If you leave the US, you may be subject to a 3 or a 10-year bar to returning to the US unless you obtain an "extreme hardship" waiver.
