Scott Richard Kaufman
National Association of Consumer Advocates
I attended law school in my mid 30s after earning my degree in speech communications, traveling a bit, waiting on tables, running a small food business and teaching tennis for eight years. Translated, I had a bit of a life and a well developed personality and world outlook at law school, unlike so many "kids" who go straight out of college and learn only to fight. My job is to see your issues from the legal and non legal sides. I need to see how the other side thinks as well to end up with successful results.
I do not come from an ivory tower. I've been poor, very poor, for years, and whatever I have I have earned it on my own. Remembering that path and that climb is essential to everything I do, every day and why I fight for all that you deserve and usually try to get you a bit more than the law allows. That is why you will find excellent reviews out there on my practice. We strive to please in your time of need.

- Q. Amazon delivery driver injured my dog; how to claim medical costs?
- A: My heart goes out to you and your dog. The legal system is not always the best route to solve issues?
Please note, I do NOT have THE answer but only a few thoughts, so here goes nothing:
a- FIND the money asap to helpl the dog, if at all possible, to lessen his/her suffering and to help the proper healing? Maybe some vet somewhere does mercy operations even?
b- IF the dog is loose in the road, that could be a 'legal defense' at least partly
c- if the driver took off, that is problematic for amazon
d- you did not actually say if the evidence or the witnesses prove fault???
e- a dog and we never want to hear this, is considered 'property' and so, his/her suffering is ... Read More
- Q. Husband passed due to insulin pump malfunction; next legal steps?
- A: So so sorry to hear this. Definitely avoid too much interaction with insurance companies, yours or the hospitals' or doctors' and reach out to speak to counsel asap to best protect any/all claims here. IF the attorney is experienced but not say in this area of law, s/he may have a good referral for you. Sincere condolences to you and your family.
- Q. Dispute over tow yard compensation for totaled truck in California.
- A: Hard to say. Could be a huge amount if the insurance company and/or the tow yard failed to follow the law. The auction thing is laughable since in most cases the tow yard runds the auction themselves and sprinkle their own people into the bidding.
OR
Could be a nothing burger as their 'offer' was a lot more than you obtained.
Here's hoping they do not sue you for storage fees.
