Consumer Legal Questions

No way to tell other than its virtually impossible that you would have a vehicle delivered to your home and cancel 2 days prior and (a) expect there to be no expenses charged and (b) that there was no document signed or endorsed that would obligate you in some way. That you would wire any money, let alone a large sum, under such circumstances is candily foolish. That said, unless or untiol there is an issue that develops there is no possible means to address all the scenarios... Read More

Hard to justify over a 900.00 item as you will spend more than that on legal fees. Especially if this is an internet item and worse a drop shipped foreign product. There is likely a process to go through where you will need to send the item back to the manufacturer, typically at your cost, for a warranty repair. ... Read More

This makes no sense. How do you go from buying a car to a refund issue without explanation. If you made a deposit to HOLD the vehicle while you sorted out your finances you may have a different issue than a down payment on a vehicle where you signed a purchase contract.

Most likely there is no chance of recovery because of failure to register for the manufacturer warranty as you describe. This is something that requires a personal consultation with an attorney to review the paperwork. An attorney should charge no more than a couple hundred dollars for the review and advice. If there is a claim, it may be difficult to find an attorney who will take this on a contingency fee (only pay if you win type of fee). These kind of cases are very labor intensive for the attorney if you have to sue for breach of warranty or product defect.... Read More

If the car is 5 years old or older it's legal to charge up to 29% interest in NC on a car loan. This is required to be disclosed before your friend signed the loan paperwork.

He/She probably added every window etching, warranty and insurance add on product to their contract.

You can sue anybody you want to, but whether you win or not is a different thing all together. If this is a corporation, make sure you sue them in their proper name, or else the case will get thrown out of court. There are too many details involved to give you a simple answer. Whether or not you have a chance to win if you sue depends on what was represented about the furniture at the time of the sale. It sounds like "staged" = floor samples, which are typically used furniture, so there is no way the mattress and box spring were "new". Did you inspect the mattress and box spring before purchase? Were they wrapped in plastic? Did you sign anything? If so, what does that say?... Read More

This all depends on the complaince with Fla. Stat. 828 and whether there was a waiver or disclosure of H/C defects and wheher you have a certificate from a licensed Vet.  Sounds like they claim the parasite issue didn't render the dog unsellable and there is an H/C waiver and you were outside the time frame. That said, if you are buying a purebred dog, and especially a bulldog, you needto be extra diligent before purchase as they are notorious for H/C issues along with skin problems. You may want to retain a lawyer to send a formal demand etter and see if that changes thier mind, though you will likely have to pay out of pocket for the letter. ... Read More

Well, from this point it looks like you solve the main problem, which is good. Now, if the Twin D performed a bad job you could sue for compensation. If you have a written contract with an express clause you could recover attorney's fee. That said, it is worth considering that litigation can be costly and time consuming. You could present your claims on Small Claims court but you need enough evidence. In this case you would have to pay $25 to start your case. If you hire an attorney, however, consider that if the other party has an attorney too your case will be sent to Civil Court and you may have to pay a $210 Index No. I know it is frustrating to have a bad job done.
