- Q. Threatened on Facebook; seeking civil suit for emotional distress and lifestyle changes. Can I win, and sue for $10,000?
- A: If this person has threatened you more than one time, it is possible you may qualify for a stalking order.

You could also file a civil lawsuit for intentional infliction of emotional distress. If you send a demand letter for $10k or less at least 30 days prior to filing, the case may qualify for attorney fees.
You could also file in small claims court if you cannot find an attorney to accept your case on a continency fee basis.
Of course, if you obtain a judgment, collections could be an issue depending on the person's assets.
- Q. Options for uninsured victim after car is totaled in Oregon.
- A: If the accident was not your fault, the at-fault party should pay your vehicle damage. If you can prove you had insurance within the last 6 months, you may be entitled to non-economic damages for your pain and suffering if you need medical treatment as a result of your injuries. If you have major medical insurance, you can use your insurance to treat for your injuries. If you do not have medical insurance, there may be $15k of personal injury protection through the at-fault driver which should be immediately available to you.
If you were at fault for the accident, there is no coverage for your vehicle.
- Q. What rights do I have to stop my neighbor's irrigation from damaging my property?
- A: It sounds like you have a case of trespassing water on your land. You will need to get estimates of what it costs to fix the problem and to prevent further damage. You may need injunctive relief if there is no way a contractor can remedy the situation. Also you will need your contractor to serve as an expert regarding the cause of the damage to your property.
