Legal Answers
98 Questions Answered
- Q. I am in a dispute with my neighbor.
- A: That is a really hard question to answer without more details (which is probably why no one has answered it for you). But if you provide more details, I will try to give you a better answer.
- Q. Aren't bedsores always a sign of nursing home abuse? The home where my mother is residing says no, but I can't be sure
- A: Not always. Bedsore can occur. The question is how the nursing home deals with the bedsores. It is rare that a significant life-threatening bedsore will occur in the absence of negligence.
- Q. If you want to fight the ticket will you go to jail?
- A: You need to provide more information. But the answer is almost invariably going to be no.
- Q. If there is no sign or yellow line near the fire hydrant, will I be able to fight the ticket?
- A: No.
- Q. My neighbor has been harassing me and my fiancé. My landlord hasn't remedied the situation
- A: I can't imagine what the cause would be for terminating your lease. You not getting along with your neighbor is unlikely to be a condition in your lease. But the language of that lease will be controlling.
- Q. In Maryland, is an email binding if there is already a contract in place on the sale of a house
- A: The emails are not going to be controlling. It is hard to answer a lot of these questions without actually seeing the contract. Is it standard contract used by a major realtor or did you draft it yourself? It sounds like you contract is voided by lack of performance but it is hard to speculate too much without seeing the contract.
- Q. How can I prove that my aunt shouldn't have been walking alone before she experienced a severe fall at her nursing home?
- A: Tough question to answer without more facts. Why should she not have been walking alone? Did the nursing home assess her as a fall risk? Usually, when these cases are won it is because the nursing home failed to follow their protocols (or what should have been their protocols) by properly assessing the resident and taking the appropriate precautions.
- Q. How would I pay medical bills while an injury lawsuit is pending?
- A: There is no easy answer to this question. There is often a lag between bills and compensation. You can often get health care providers to hold off collection if you have a pending personal injury claim. But there are no guarantees.
- Q. Case number error?
- A: Malpractice lawsuits are not on the case search website because they are filed in Health Claims and then typically transferred to Circuit Court. Do you have a lawyer? Why not just ask your attrorney?
