QUESTION
Do I have a case or not against the courier or not if I didn’t receive my package and if yes, what type of attorney would I need?

More details to this question:
A company attempted to send me 4 ($50) dollar gift cards via a courier. I was supposed to receive them on the 28th of October 2013 but I have yet to do so. Now I check back with the shipper to see what the problem is and they said they have received info from the courier saying that I received this package with my signature, allegedly. I called the courier and opened up an investigation. I signed a paper on two different investigations saying I did not receive this package. On the second occasion, the driver told me that he signed it and left it at my front door because he thought I would have been cool with it and insisted that I do not go further with the investigation because the courier was going to garnish his wages and if I did so, I would have to pick up any future deliveries because he would not deliver them. Now this man has been working there for quite some time. I believe on the contrary of this the courier closed out both investigations incorrectly send the shipper invalid info stating that I received packaged when indeed I didn’t.

You are the intended third-party beneficiary of the contract between the company that was sending you the cards and the courier company, meaning that you do have a cause of action. Your venue is small claims court. You do not need a lawyer for this.

First, it is clearly not worthwhile to get an attorney. At the cheapest, they would charge you at?least $150 per hour. Second, you should report to the courier company what the driver told you and that you want a new driver on your route; he is going to provide you bad service no matter what. You can ask the company that issued the coupons if the would reissue them after a certain time when they have not been cashed.

Your damage is 200 what kind of law suit do you think you would have for any other damage. You could file a small claims case that's about all.
