Can I sue for personal injury? Or bring criminal charges (assault) 2 years later?

Civill assault and battery is a two year Statute of Limitations. Dram shop (to sue the bar) is a two year Statute of Limitations. So i think you waited too long. You may have a negligence claim against the bar if they knew he was a problem and did nothing; however, this is a tough theory. All in all, the moral of any potential claim is : DO NOT WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Can I sue a classmate who spread lies about me that drove me to depression and attempted suicide MI libel/slander laws

You have a claim against him if the things he said about you damaged you. You are entitled to sue him for damages. The problem is that if the person that you are suing has nothing then whatever judgment you get is uncollectable. The jerk that defamed you probably has nothing and the law only provides for money damages so any case against him would be economically a waste of time.

I have been offered an open-end settlement for a slip and fall injury. Is there such a thing?

if you do not have a lawyer, then i would say that the Adjuster is pulling a fast one. If you do then, perhaps the offer includes the "med pay" which is separate then liability coverage and covers medical up to a year, but med pay limits are usually low: 1,000, 5,000 or 10,000 dollars

What is the process of getting damages incurred after bitting down on a bone piece in hamburger purchased at the grocery store

Send a letter to the store advising them of what happened and how injured you are. The store will most likely turn the letter over to its insurance company and it will contact you. Then you will submit medical bills and records that show the relationship between your injury and the product. You will be entitled to your medical bills, medications, work loss and pain and suffering. If you kept the food, then you should preserve it. It is very important evidence because the store will not...

Michigan medical malpractice law

It is difficult to answer your question with a simple yes or no. In order to sue a doctor, hospital or other medical provider in Michigan, we must have the support of an expert of the same specialty.

From your summary of events it sounds like you may have a case. IT is definitely one that warrants a review of the medical records. You should...

Who pays for damage to auto?

In Michigan, our law provides that in an auto accident that each person is responsible for hi/her own auto damage except for $500.00 mini tort. Therefore, the business owner is at least responsible for the $500.00. Since the damage was caused by his premises and not his auto, then you may be entitled to the whole damage bill. However, if the ice was that bad, he may argue that it was there to be seen and it is your fault. Goold luck

Dermatologist performs surgery on wrong part of leg.

Your Doctor committed malpractice per se. He/she performed the procedure on the worng leg! He has no excuse. He is a pompous, arrogant and cavalier for not making it right. Unfortunately, you have an issue of damages. Med Mal cases are expensive. You should consult a local attorney and hopefully he/she will handle it for you.
