Angela, was your son in the car? when did this happen? is there a police report?

that would fall under medical malpractice. I can recommend a good med mal attorney, but I'd need to know the name of the doctor in case I have a conflict of interests, which could happen if the doctor is treating one of my clients and if I need him to testify in court to support a client's claims. Please advise. Thanks for contacting me. - Greg DiLeo

Thanks for asking, Mr. Jackson. I specialize in personal injury litigation, so that's outside of my area. Off hand, I do not know of any mandatory raise requirements, but the question is better directed to someone who specializes in labor and employment law. Thanks and good luck. - Greg DiLeo

every solution i can think of requires her brother to sign something. If he is not cooperative, the only solution that I can recommend is suing him for fraud, breach of contract and specific performance. Sorry I could not be of more help. - Greg DiLeo

Mr. Davis, thanks for contacting me. Without more information, I can't give you much advice. It depends on who caused the damage, whether you can prove that their activities were negligent and then go from there. There are already several suits against the SWB for damage to homes from drainage projects, but we are not handling those property damage claims, as I specialize in personal injury litigation. I hope this information helps, and if you give me more details, perhaps I can help more. - Greg DiLeo

Ms. Marshall, thanks for contacting me. I'm not sure what you're asking, but if you had a workers' compensation court approved settlement, and if you signed the papers and the court accepted it by signing the approval order, you can't go back for more. You can always fire your attorney at any time. However, I would caution you against doing that unless you have a new attorney ready to take on your case, which is always difficult after another attorney has had the file for so long. I would suggest a face to face meeting so that you discuss with your attorney your dissatisfaction with him or her and find out what stage your proceedings are in, if it's too late to do anything about it, what fees and expenses are due the attorney, and what your options might be. It may be just that workers' compensation laws only provide very limited relief, and no attorney can make the laws any better than what they are, so it may be simply the nature of WC law. - Greg DiLeo

Mr. Ratcliff, if it's your residence (whether you're the owner or the lease is in your name), you don't need any legal remedy. If anyone is living there without your consent, you have the right to demand that they leave and if they don't, and if they are not paying pursuant to some sort of lease agreement, you have the right to call the police if it is necessary to protect yourself in the process. You have no legal obligation to support a 28 year old or her son. I hope this helped. - Greg DiLeo

Yes. We specialize in personal injury litigation. However, we know attorneys in other areas as well, and we may be able to assist in a referral. Let me know what you may need. Thanks for contacting me, Ms. Alonzo. - Greg DiLeo

Ms. Mayfield, if you were injured in an accident as a passenger, you can make a claim against the person who caused the collision. But if the person excluded from insurance coverage was the driver who caused the collision, there would be no coverage for the accident and you could not make that claim. But if the cause of the accident is someone else, just because the driver of your car was excluded, that would not affect your rights to make a claim. If you need assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thanks. - Greg DiLeo
