Shipping a Financed Vehicle? by chrishamrick103

Trying to decide on what car to get. Anyone ever send a financed vehicle to PR? I could imagine sending a leased one would not be OK because you have to return the vehicle. But what about a financed car? I don't see why this would be a problem, ...

chrishamrick103

A Different Perspective of Living In PR by chrishamrick103

Hey everyone, it's been a long time! I spent about 22K moving my family of 5 to the island in December 2016. We had an awful experience overall and one morning, something just told me to leave the island and I did.... then the hurricanes hit. ...

chrishamrick103

Any GOOD Attorney's? by chrishamrick103

Does anyone know of a good attorney? I'm about done with PR, I really am. Stress, stress and more stress since we got here. Many of you know how my landlord has ripped us off and we haven't had any luck finding at least a 4 bedroom that ...

It's been a while. Basically "Life" itself looked out for me. I spoke with an attorney friend of mine from Maryland. She walked me through my options and I realized that the entire thing was going to cost me regardless. I refused to ... Read More

What is your next court date? A legal trick sometimes played is to cause reschedule after reschedule to raise the legal cost of the adversary in the hope they will settle. Watch for that.I don't have a date set yet. They're trying to get the ... Read More
