I was ill-advised by an automotive center to have a transmission flush done on my vehicle, which destroyed the internal oil seals and now the transmission is destroyed. I need to know what type of attorney I need for this situation, specifically a consumer protection lawyer. I am located in Pensacola, Florida, and the vehicle is a 2005 Dodge.

The State of Ohio attorney general claims I owe a debt for failure to file user tax for 2016 and has garnished my bank account. I have documents proving I don't owe and have forwarded them to the office. I want my money back, the garnishments removed, and the attorney to stop court proceedings. What do I do?

Regarding a small claims appeal, after the appeal, when a new judge conducts a new trial, does the judge still belong to the small claims court? Also, if the judge denies my motion to vacate the judgment and I have 10 days to file the appeal, do I need to attach exhibits when filing the appeal? Is the appeal form only one page, and do I need to serve it to the plaintiff before filing it with the small claims court and the appeal court? How many copies do I need to file in the appeal court?

What motion should I file to move forward in court when the opposing party has filed a motion for continuance, and their lawyer has quit since last year, causing delays in the case?

I faced malpractice by my disbarred attorney who missed the deadline for a summary judgment motion, resulting in a judgment lien. Despite paying off the lien, the lien holders refuse to release it unless I sign blanket waivers, which is illegal. They blackmail me for 'collection fees' every time I sell real estate, and the excess funds go into the court registry. The original judge ruled that they must release the liens, but the log notes and CD went missing, making it hard to prove the ruling. The new judge added a clause that if I appeal, they don't have to release the liens. After the order, the missing CD and log notes were found. I appealed but missed the deadline for filing a brief in chief due to not receiving court mail. I asked for an extension but was defaulted on. I plan to file my brief in chief and argue that the opposing counsel's refusal to release the liens to prevent me from hiring an attorney contributed to me missing the deadline. I want to argue latches and that they cannot benefit from their actions. What are your thoughts on this argument and how can I develop it?
