Asking lawyers about lawyering up. LolI’ve been contacted by an individual that I sold a car to seven months ago telling me that I misrepresented the condition of the car and he is going to sue me for damages and put a lien on my house unless I settle with him. Thoughts? Do I need to lawyer up or is this guy blowing smoke?
So.... just how bad did you screw over the guy?
It’s a scam.I didn’t (yes I see the purple). I sent him every picture and video he asked for. He bought it sight unseen from Texas and now half a year later he’s extra mad.
FWIW, if there does come a point that you really need a lawyer it would be really helpful if you had a written record of everything he asked for and your replies if that is still possible.I didn’t (yes I see the purple).

I am not an attorney but I am a dealer. I have seen people threaten all kinds of things over the past 15 years. It sucks when people act like this and can raise the anxiety level but they just hope you fold.
Hes got nothing. Sure he may pay some attorney a couple hundred bucks to fire off a letter but the deal is done. And to be honest thats all most people do is b**** and threaten.
Did you have him sign any type of receipt or bill of sale? Something stating "sold as is, no warranty"?
Tell him if he doesnt like it sell it.
Now if it had been made out of letters cut out of various magazines and pasted to a sheet of paper? I'd take that very seriously. Bad spellin and a #2 pencil? Not so much.Neighbor sent my dad a letter from a "lawyer" once. It was on 8x11 legal paper, printed in pencil with bad spelling.
But it was legal paper. They have to honor it. It's state law, I swear to god!Neighbor sent my dad a letter from a "lawyer" once. It was on 8x11 legal paper, printed in pencil with bad spelling.
