I was injured in a car accident as a passenger and obtained an attorney. The first attorney didn’t respond to my calls for three months, so I obtained a second attorney. Recently, the first attorney contacted me because my case with the insurance company has been settled and they received the payment. The second attorney instructed me not to contact the first attorney and ordered an expensive medical test, which I had to pay for. Now, I have no reimbursement for my medical and transportation costs, and I still can't walk a block due to pain. Am I able to file a suit against both attorneys for malpractice?

If a website has rules and policies that say by signing up, you agree to the rules and policies, does that legally pertain to me? I was under the impression that I needed to sign a document stating that I understand the rules and policies and agree to them. The company can’t and will not provide me with the signed agreement. Their website glitched resulting in me losing $240 and they will not refund me. Additionally, I was using a betting site where the website glitched and placed multiple bets without my confirmation. I contacted support immediately, but they refuse to acknowledge the issue and hold me liable for the bets. They provided me with a link to an adjudication service, but the email is invalid, and they won’t give me any other contact information. What can I do?

We got dog sitters through Rover.com and due to their negligence, our dog is dead. We left the dog and ran to the airport. They called and told us that our dog ran from their yard, was hit by a car, and died. This happened 1 or 2 hours after we left it. Did you have any written agreement or contract with the dog sitters regarding their responsibilities and liability? Is there anything else the Lawyer should know before I connect you? Rest assured that they'll be able to help you. I will answer every question they ask me.

I had a fight with my ex-girlfriend in 2021 after discovering her infidelity, which led to her falsely accusing me of kidnapping and holding her against her will. This false accusation made the news and has ruined my life. I was found guilty of Xanax possession and eluding in 2021. I want to know how to get the news articles deleted and if I have a chance to sue the news sources. Additionally, I'm looking for advice on how to find a good defamation lawyer and whether I should sue all the news sources individually or collectively.

I paid nearly $20,000.00 to the franchise Affordable Dental and Implants in Lake Charles, Louisiana. After 8 months and 12 hours of surgery, the snap-in dentures did not fit properly, causing pain and issues. One post came out completely, and the lower denture's snap part detached. I moved to Houston, Texas, and a dentist there fixed the issues in 5 minutes, advising me to start over. I cannot afford to do so. I want to sue for damages, pain, and inadequate work. Can I sue the national franchise or just the local office?
