- Q. How can I protect myself if my neighbor removes a tree on my property and gets hurt?
- A: Hello,
It is good to be thinking about liabilty before you allow your neighbor to DIY stuff that has the ability to go way wrong.
A written disclaimer of liability should help protect you and your property in Utah if your neighbor is injured or causes damage while removing the tree. A verbal agreement offers limited protection, so a written document is advisable. It wouldn't have to be a multiple page document, but something that your neighbor would sign acknowledging he is assuming all risk in the work and waiving any claims against you. You can't stop someone form suing you, so you also need to assess whether he is litigous in nature. If he is, then I wouldn't allow him ... Read More
- Q. Do I have to give back my engagement ring after breakup if we never married?
- A: Given the ring’s status as a symbol of a promise that didn’t pan out, and since he hasn’t brought it up, you’re not obligated to proactively return it. But if he requests it, the default legal stance in both states leans toward giving it back unless you have a solid reason tied to his fault (Utah) or an unusual gift scenario (both states). You might want to clarify why the engagement ended and where the proposal happened for a sharper answer. This is viewed as a conditional gift, so unless he gave under different circumstances or with wording saying you can have the ring regardless of marriage he would typically have a stronger case if it ended up in court.
- Q. How to access sister's account at CalCoast after her passing?
- A: Sorry to hear that the bank’s giving you a hard time, asking for more documents and an in-person visit, which is tough because of your age and health. I am licensed in Utah so these this generic advice informed by Utah law; you would be best to seek the advice from a Pennsylvania attorney.
Depending on Pennsylvania's small estate laws, you need to determine whether or not you can proceed with a small estate laws (not going through a probate process). If the total value is less than their threshhold, you should be able present a small estate affidavit to California to get those funds if the assets are low enough.
Start by talking to a Pennsylvania attorney.
