do i have any rights with the covid vaccine

Answered 4 years and 10 months ago by attorney Stephen Arnold Black | 1 Answer

So in the work setting, if an employer is forcing you to get a vaccination, you may attempt to get out of it on several bases. It is unlawful to discriminate against anybody in the workplace based on religion or disability. So if you have a letter from your pastor saying that you object to the vaccination on The basis of your sincere religious beliefs, you may be able to be excused. Additionally, if your physician can document that your immune system will be compromised because The vaccine would put you at greater risk for an immuno disease reaction, then you can equally have a chance of getting out of the vaccination on that basis....

I assume you have a fence with holes or slats in it.

I was eating a salad and found myself chewing on a cigarette butt what can I do

Answered 10 years and 8 months ago by attorney Jonathan Brooks Davis | 1 Answer

Probably nothing. To prevail you will have to prove the cigarette butt was placed in your salad at the restaurant as opposed to you placing it in your salad at home for obvious reasons. Proving that will likely be impossible.

can an attorney find an address with only a phone number to go on

Answered 11 years and 7 months ago by attorney Bruce Robins | 1 Answer

There are reverse telephone directories which list the numbers and provide the address. You may be able to find one in your local library. If not, I believe there are online services that do the same thing, but you'll probably have to pay a fee.

My son attends a private, Christian school in South Carolina. Are private school teachers responsible for the safety of their students?

Answered 12 years and a month ago by attorney Bruce Robins | 1 Answer

There's no reason the statement would not be legal, but that doesn't mean its enforceable. I am not familiar with SC law, but in NY those providing services can limit their liability for negligence, but not for gross negligence, so enforceability in any particular circumstance may depend on what exactly the school or teacher does wrong which causes an injury....

We found out the well water where we rent a home is unsafe to drink or cook with. What legal options do we have?

Answered 12 years and 8 months ago by Dr. Michael Gordon Sribnick (Unclaimed Profile) | 1 Answer

This answer does not create an attorney/client relationship. If you were not physically harmed by the water, you have no case. You may inform the property management company that either they will fix this problem, you wish to get out of the lease. As long as you are living there, you are responsible for paying the rent. The S.C. Landlord Tenant Act states that the property must be habitable. Bad water makes the property uninhabitable. Either they must fix the problem or you have the right to report them to the building authorities. Personally, I would hire a lawyer, but that is up to you. I am a S.C. lawyer and board certified internist. Regards, I am Michael G. Sribnick, M.D., J.D. Attorney at Law Owner of Michael G. Sribnick, M.D., J.D., LLC www.michaelsribnicklaw.com...
