Legal Answers
226 Questions Answered
Q. Is it legal to yell and belittle a resident/patient of a care facility? Can a employee of a care center search a friend
A: In Utah, it is illegal and unethical to yell at or belittle residents in care facilities. State regulations, specifically under the Utah Administrative Code R432-150-12, protect residents from mental and physical abuse. Such actions can be reported to the facility management, the Utah Department of Health, or through the Utah Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program, which advocates for residents' rights and welfare in care settings.
Q. I recently purchased a car. I had 3 vehicles that I traded for 1. I didn’t know the exact mileage of 2 of the vehicles
A: Hey there,

It's essential to understand that preventing someone from filing a lawsuit isn't something you can do preemptively. The crux of the matter will likely revolve around the contract you signed. It's worth asking if there was a specific trade-in agreement or similar document involved in your transaction.

Even without a written agreement on the trade-ins, an oral contract can still hold weight. Given that you were upfront about the mileage being an estimate and the dealership proceeded with the deal with that knowledge, you didn't misrepresent the facts. This transparency on your part is crucial.

While it's possible you might have to defend your position, the circumstances you've described suggest you have a strong defense. The dealership was aware you were estimating and still chose to finalize the deal. Keeping any communication or documentation where you've stated these estimates were guesses could be beneficial.

It might also be wise to consult with a legal professional to review the specifics of your situation and any documents you signed. They can provide tailored advice and outline your options more clearly.

Take care and best of luck navigating this situation.

Q. How do you start a self-employed private service provider?
A: It's great to hear about your interest in teaching cello! To ensure you navigate this new venture without any tax-related issues, it's crucial to meticulously record all your expenses and income. This will not only help you manage your finances better but also simplify your tax filings. Considering setting up a Limited Liability Company (LLC) could be a wise move. An LLC can provide you with flexibility and protection, making it a popular choice for small business owners. Moreover, based on the revenue you generate, you might have to make a decision on your tax filing status. You could either opt for an S-corporation election, which might offer tax benefits under certain conditions, or proceed with filing a Schedule C as part of your personal tax returns. Each option has its nuances, so it might be beneficial to consult with a tax professional or business attorney to understand what's best for your specific situation. This proactive approach will not only keep you compliant with tax laws but also support the smooth operation of your teaching endeavors. ... Read More
