I plan to invest in a single family house investment, what is the best way to form a partnership?: Would an agreement signed by both party sufficient? It should state that the title will be on both of us, the investment of bother parties, the responsibility of both parties and how the profit is divided when the project is done.
Rabeh’s answer: I completely agree. You will need a partnership agreement, and depending on what is actually happening, an LLC may be the better vehicle for this project. Avvo does not allow us to offer our services when we are responding to inquiries in writing these posts, but anyone of us could help you get the partnership agreement or other documents drafted.
What do I need to prove a violation of dr/patient privacy?: I live in a small town. My doctor told my sister that he suspected I had a specific medical condition. I have substantial damages if I can prove there was a breach. Obviously, these breach(es) didn't happen in my presence, though my sister recently told me about them. Is hearsay enough to make a (malpractice) case against the doctor? My sister gave me emails she sent to others divulging this diagnosis but doesn't explicitly say the source. Plus the "diagnosis" was never made because it wasn't accurate and turned out to be something pretty different and less prejudicial. I also have emails my sister sent to the doctor asking for referrals/info for doctors to help my "condition" (not specified) and the doctor was always vague in his responses & followed up via phone. Can I prove the breach?
Rabeh’s answer:
You cannot sue under HIPAA, but you can sue under the California Confidentiality of Medical Information Act. A Los Angeles privacy law firm can help guide you further.

Our dog bite a 3yr old child, parents have filed a claim with our home insurance and retained an attorney, what is our next step: About a month ago we were having friends over for a BBQ. I was out of the house and my husband was home when his friends showed up with their 3 yr old girl. The mother proceeded to take her daughter out back without my husband and moments later came in screaming the dog bite the child. Our 2 yr old dog bite the child, once a believe, and then stopped. She was stiched up and returned home the same night. My husband went over to their house a few days later to give the girl a stuff animal and check on her, also provided parents with insurance info to open a claim. The mother of the child stated the dog growled at the child a week before when they were over and the girl was playing with him but never mentioned this till now. They have retained an attorney and openned a claim.
