Are my husband’s wages at stake if we got married after I got sued?

Your husband's wages should be safe, however, they can place a lien against home, even if its homesteaded. Bankruptcy is always an alternative, but I would speak to an experienced bankruptcy attorney prior to filing.

What can I do if my child was severely injured at a church event?

Personal Injury lawyer at The David F. Stoddard Law Firm
If they wish to take legal action against the church, consult a personal injury attorney. First. Even if liability was clear, which it isn't, the injury is severe enough that it would not be advisable to handle the case on your on. Second, liability would probably be disputed by the church. You would have to show that the event was negligently set up or negligently supervised. Failure to have head gear may very well be negligent because It seems to me that headgear is worn in most amateur wresting contests. It might be appropriate in a case such as this to have an expert in "sports safety" to evaluate the contest and how it was run.

I was helping a family member at their house cutting some zip ties off a slide and slipped I cut major artery and tendons. What can I do?

Answered by attorney Stephen Arnold Black
Personal Injury lawyer at The Law Office of Stephen A. Black
OK, I'm really sorry about this incident. I hope you get better. So there is no automatic liability if you were injured on another person's property. The injured party has to prove that their damages were caused by the negligence of the property owner or property manager, it does not appear from your fact pattern that they did anything negligent to cause your damages. If they do have a homeowners insurance policy, usually there's always a med pay portion that they will tender provided that a person was injured on the property and you suffered damages. However, that being said, you should still search for an attorney in Colorado as there could be liability based on some kind of clever argument that they gave you a tool that they knew or should've known was defective and you had no knowledge that this tool was defective. There could be other arguments you could make, but that's just one off the top of my head.
