I took my college roommate to small claims court because she refused to pay her half of the phone bill. I won and she paid. Other than that I haven't been involved in any lawsuits.

Re: Alot of sueing talk lately so...

I rented an apartment in Patchogue for a few years (La Bonne Vie, if anyone is familiar). I lived there for about 5 years. New neighbors had moved in next to me and were intent on BLASTING their music EVERY NIGHT. I tried everything from knocking on his door and asking him to lower it (he didn't), to calling the cops (who couldn't do anything), then complained to the management office (who also, did NOTHING).

I moved out and broke my lease. I sued the apartment complex to give me my deposit back (which technically I wasn't entitled to, but I felt I was forced out because it was intolerable living conditions).

I work for a law firm, so my boss represented me in small claims court and I actually won!

I'm also a litigation attorney (defense side) although I've become more involved in other areas that don't involve going to state or federal court. I've never personally sued anyone and I've never been sued.

I was about 15 & my parents sued on my behalf. I got a settlement out of court after a deposition when I was 21.

Re: Alot of sueing talk lately so...

I am currently involved in a lawsuit regarding a bedbug attack I received while being a guest at a Manhattan hotel. Still waiting for settlement.

Other than that, I have never sued anyone for anything.

I'm one of those people that always says "I'm gonna sue them!" but I never would unless I had an extremely strong case.
