Legal Answers
- Q. Can I cash an insurance check for an accident with minor headache in Colorado?
- A: I assuming this insurance is not your insurance company, but the other driver's. If you cash the check, you will likely not be able to make an injury claim in the future. Typically, insurance companies send settlement checks like this so that it is harder for you to sue in the future. You should only cash the check if you are certain you will not make an injury claim in the future. Some adjusters send checks for even minor injuries (especially head injuries like a headache) to settle injury claims as fast (and cheap) as they can.
If you are dealing with your insurance company, they are likely sending you money as required to avoid a bad faith claim.
- Q. What should I do if a seller demands a puppy back claiming broken terms on a contract I never signed?
- A: I agree that she has no right to reclaim the puppy if you did not sign the agreement and you did not agree to any specific conditions verbally. As a practical note, you may want to block her on as many forms of communication as possible (phone, email, all social media). If she does find ways to contact you, keep track of all of it and call your local police department because her behavior is likely harassment. I would strongly caution against meeting with her again if she requests that. Best of luck to you and your new pup!
- Q. Can I break my lease when my rented duplex is sold in Colorado if no specific clauses exist?
- A: Check your lease for a provision regarding whether the owner/landlord can assign the lease. Typically, leases allow the landlord to assign the lease (for example, sell the property) and the lease remain in effect. There may be another way for you to get out of the lease but you will likely have to pay a certain amount to do so.
