If the driver actually stole from you (such as taking items out of your pocket or purse) you probably can sue Uber. If you left items in the car, it is reasonable for the driver to insist that you come and get the items, or pay for the driver to come to you. You cannot leave items behind, and then shift to the driver the cost of the ride to bring things to you. The cost of suing would be far more than the cost of paying the driver to ride to your location, and filing a lawsuit is not a guarantee of victory.... Read More

Anyone with the filing fee can sue anyone. You need to prove that the church knew that a dirty knife can injure you. You don't provide enough information to answer that question.

If you do not have insurance, you cannot basically sue anyone for damages. Michigan is a no fault state that requires you to have insurance. You can sue for lost wages incurred AFTER three years. You must bring suit before three years.

Probably not. They are communicable, and when we are in contact with others, it happens. Let's say you take a college class, and you pass someone in the hall who has a cold, and you catch it. Same thing.

Yes, you can sue. However, the heart of any lawsuit is the amount of damages. I suspect that a cut to the hand might not involve enough damages to interest an attorney in your case. You might begin by yourself making a written claim to the company and requesting compensation. If you do not get it you can then consider a lawsuit.... Read More

He is responsible for all of the reasonable charges for the necessary expenses. He also needs to get insurance AND drive more safely. Or else, he needs a psychiatrist. Or he will end up in the slammer.

Unfortunately- He is liable for all damages paid out or owing. Collision, injury, medical, etc. If it's a lot, bankruptcy may be a valid option, but he should speak with a lawyer asap.

Your son is responsible for all of the medical expenses of the other side. If the other side has insurance they will sue your son and if he doesn't pay his driver's license will be suspended. He may have to go bankrupt in order to avoid this responsibility.

Medical, hospital, and nursing malpractice requires the Plaintiff to prove: 1) that there was a proper way of treating the condition (known as the Standard of Practice in the same or similar communities), 2) that the healthcare provider deviated from the Standard of Practice, 3) that there were injuries/damages, and 4) that the action, or failure to act, of each of the healthcare providers being blamed was a direct cause of the injuries/damages. All 4 of those things MUST be proven. In order to prove them, the Plaintiff MUST have medical testimony from an expert witness or witnesses having comparable skills as the people being blamed. Unfortunately, thinking, feeling, or believing that someone screwed up is NOT enough. Expert testimony is required. What you must do is to get all of the medical records from all of the hospitals, doctors, etc. with whom he treated, and then have those records reviewed by an experienced doctor, lawyer, or nurse to determine if it seems likely that there was malpractice. If the reviewer believes that there is a valid claim, then an expert witness must be hired to act as your consultant and to testify as to the 4 necessary things mentioned above. Good luck! These are very tough cases to prove, but they can be proven with the right facts and the right witnesses.... Read More

Food must be fit for its intended purpose; to eat. Most manufacturers won't settle without a law suit. These cases are not easy and they always accuse the consumer of "fraud". The object may be a nut shell as we see that from time to time. You have a strong case.
