A Wisconsin attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for four weeks. Personal injury attorneys are not likely to know this - you could repost under Criminal Law. Good luck

I’ve used Moraccan shampoo and conditioner
I agree with Mr. Muwonge. I would also add another issue you must consider. Most states require corporations to be represented by only attorneys. This law applies to any court in which the corporation has been sued. If you plan to sue a corporation (who made the product) you should be aware... Read more »
The judge asked for a settlement outside of Court but lawyer for the plaintiffs said no. The judge said he had to follow the law for Wisconsin that after 10 years I can't fle.
I don't understand what you are asking for. Are you saying the judge dismissed your case because you filed after the statute of limitations expired? We have a 3 yr Statute of limitations on Wisconsin beyond which one may not sure. If so, cases you characterized wouldn't help you. Again, I... Read more »
The biker ran into my dog and kind of crumpled up against his handle bars and slowly almost sat on the ground.

You need to speak to a local attorney since you don’t have an insurance carrier to fight for you.
My tenant is planning to sue me, he got hurt when cutting down a tree on our property that we paid him to cut I was not there when tree was getting cut
Your homeowners or renters insurance should defend you and provide a lawyer for you.
And limitations if any.

I want to help him file small claims paperwork but i am unsure since he isn't suing for money, is small claims appropriate or is this a tort?
This could be something that the attorneys in the Animal/Dog Law category would know best. The question could have better chances of being seen under that heading if you want to try reposting. Good luck

I left message after message with osha and lawyers but no one would help me I was started on fire with break cleaner and told the owner of the company and then I was let go just after (January of 2017)

You could try to arrange a brief consult with a Wisconsin attorney to discuss what could be done at... Read more »

Your husband needs to get an attorney. I know he meant well but he does need an attorney.
You can sue the parents but that will cost money as their homeowners will say it's not the type of claim that they will cover.
Can he sue me for the injury?
Anyone can sue anyone else for anything. The question I think you want to know is whether you are legally liable. Generally, absent negligence, one is not legally liable to someone simply because an injury took place on property they owned.
for a third of the new attorneys fee is that a fair percentage to the client?
It is quite typical for the current lawyer and former lawyer to work out a fee split arrangement based on the work involved and reasons the client left the first lawyer. Ethics rules general look to whether the total fee charge was reasonable.
