Unless the entity is a US company - and its sounds like this is a Chinese entity, you likely SOL and such is the risk of dealing with international entities to work in a Communist country. The amount in dispute alone renders any legal action impractical.

You are likely to find that the ability to collect money from fraud scammers or just shady defendents is very difficult anda task most any competent lawyer will decline if you are expecting a contingent fee arrangement where the lawyer gets a percentage of the funds collected, an 40% of o 0 = 0. You will need to decide whether you want to spend money out of pocket hiring a civil trial lawyer to sue the entity and its operators to try and recover your payment and possibly expose the sham you describe...

You needto talk to a "collections" laywer. Be prepared for a lack of interest unless you are paying up front fees, or a big chunk of collected funds as most collection law firms are not excited about hard to collect "one off" accounts. IN the future NEVER let a customer/client get deeper into your pocket financially than you can afford to walk away from. ... Read More

Can I sue my ex? Should I sue him in NY or FL?

Answered 8 years ago by attorney Bruce Robins   |   1 Answer
Your ex has breached a contract to repay your loan, so I seeno reason why you can't sue him.  While NY law applies to this contract (good for you since I believe NY has a longer statute of limitations, which would run from the date of the last payment), I don't see why you would sue him in New York, and am not even sure that New York courts could exercise jurisdiction over the matter now that you both live in Florida....

Its difficult at that price point as legal expense for a lawsuit would likely be more. You would need to hire a lawyer to review the paperwork to address any means of getting out of the agreement or to determine any future expsoures.

Answered 8 years and a month ago by attorney Mark Tischhauser, Esq.   |   1 Answer
There is no practical help for poor business decisions. The "loan" you made was simply foolish and you should NEVER loan money you cannotwalk away from. It will cost you more than the money lent to sue the guy and even then you get a fancy IOU called a judgement and may never see a dime if the ex employee doesn't have it to pay. This is likely an expensive lesson learned in business management. ... Read More

Do I need to hire an attorney and if so can I sue for attorney fees and court costs?

Answered 8 years and a month ago by attorney Mark Tischhauser, Esq.   |   1 Answer
Yes. YOU cannot recover legal fees that you did not expend or are not obligated for. A second factor is hiring a lawyer not only adds the benefitsof having a lawyer, but if there is an attorney's fee recovery provision, equally adds a substantial threat to the other party that they would have to spend more than just giving you your own money back, as they could be expsoded to reimbursing your legal fees....

Are there civil litigation attorneys in spring hill, fl that offer free consultations?

Answered 8 years and 2 months ago by attorney Mark Tischhauser, Esq.   |   1 Answer
I actually am currently handling a similar issue in court as we speak. Bear in mind that "feee consultations" are simply to establish whether you have a case and the expense and manner of retaining the lawyer to handle it. They are not educational seminars where lawyers dole out free advice on how to solve your problems for free, as unfortunately many people presume. You will likely need to plan on hiring a lawyer out of pocket, hiring an engineering expert and fighting over construction lien, arbitration provisions vs. court/jury trial issues as the starting point of any legal action. ...

Help with collecting settlement

Answered 8 years and 2 months ago by attorney Mark Tischhauser, Esq.   |   1 Answer
Unfortunately, in large part YOU took advantage of you as being poor or on section 8 does not confer special consideration or privileges when you play lawyer in court. The most common problm with pro-se litigants is the get paper judgments or settlments and never collect the money after all the expense and effort. That stated, you will likely need spend some money to HIRE a lawyer to review what you agree to as settlement and go from there. In the future waiting 2 years to address such an issue makes an emergency on your part now but not for anyone else. ... Read More
