Q. Which type of lawyer can help me to get my money, maybe suing BofA for stealing from me and misguide me during 4 years?

September 27, 2023

A: I assume the cash was successfully deposited into your bank account. If so, the only issue is the other contents of your box.

But you don't say what else was in the box. Perhaps you will get a better answer if you tell us what else was in the box. Obviously, if it was some tickets to Disneyland that is one thing - and not worth the expense of hiring a lawyer. If it was a couple of pounds of gold, obviously that is a big deal; and tell us what the bank did with it.

Q. I have a banking negligence/Consumer protection related question. In essence, the bank failed to monitor my mortgage a/c

September 21, 2023

A: I am sorry this happened. But I don't see where the bank is to blame. If I understand you correctly, you expected to benefit from these transactions, making you a willing, (although a duped) participant in a possible fraud scheme. I think the bank is not to blame.

Q. Car rental overcharged me, and still have my deposit...who would advise on this matter for me?

September 6, 2023

A: I think that booking.com treated the transaction like a new original booking instead of an extension to the original reservation. It might be helpful if you submit a new question and tell us exactly how the extension was made - was it thru booking.com or the actual rental company, and who have you talked to - both of them or just one of them? Also have you complained to their corporate offices?

The more info you give us, the better answer we can give you.
