I recently went to an auto shop for diagnostic tests. After driving off, my front driver side tire came off due to the mechanic forgetting to screw it back on. The shop only fixed the studs and lugs, but my wheel alignment and body work are now issues. The manager was rude and dismissive. The district manager has offered to assess the damages, but I'm skeptical. I'm also experiencing anxiety about driving. Do I have grounds to sue, and if so, what should my next steps be?

Last month, the police raided our home due to my husband's drug-selling activities in the basement. I had no knowledge of this. The landlord later informed me to vacate the house by August 15th, citing drug activity. Is this all they need to do, or do they have to go to a courthouse and file eviction papers? I thought I would have at least 30 days. I am in Virginia, and I'm currently trying to pack up and find a new place to live, but I don't have a license or car, making it difficult.
