- Q. Can I sue for a junkyard car part causing issues?
- A: In order to sue, you have to have an agreement or representation by the mechanic that the part was going to be new, that the mechanic breached the contract by installing a used part, or his representation was false, and you have to have damages a result of the mechanic's breach of the contract or false representation. Assumng your damages are less than $7,500, you can sue in small claims court.
- Q. Do I have a case for medical mistreatment and misidentification after a hospital visit in MA, November 2024?
- A: This is a question for a medical malpractice attorney. I think we are not supposed to give you actual names of attorneys but if you check the internet the big local firms will come up, Lubin & Meyer, Crowe & Haris, etc. Try one of them.
- Q. In Massachusetts does someone pay real estate taxes for a "private road"
- A: The abutters to the road are deemed to own to the middle of the road and therefore it is possible that the four owners of the lots pay the taxes for the road. TI suggest you direct this question to the taxing authorities of the town.
