Stolen Vehicle Situation
I recently sold a custom non-registered non-titled expensive recreation vehicle that was later found to be stolen by the buyer. I was given a full bill of sale from the person I made the purchase from (It sounds like they may have been a victim as well) and have been cleared of any wrong doing by the authorities on my part. The buyer is now looking to sue me in a civil court for the full purchase price to recoup his cost since the insurance company has the right to the vehicle since the insurance claim was paid out to the original owner who reported the vehicle stolen. What are my options and what would be the best attorney to represent me? The detective in the case told me it is difficult for the buyer to pursue these sort of cases and get a judgment. Is this true in your opinion? I live in the Phoenix area and may require representation. Thank you for your consideration.

Landlord Liability
In March I tripped over the carpet in my living room that has been torn for quite some time. In the rental agreement, the landlord noted that he needed to repair the carpet. It’s been 6 years since then and he had still not fixed it.
I’ve been told by an insurance agent that my landlord is only partially responsible for the injury. I was told that because I was aware that there was a safety hazard, I am also at fault. I was wondering if anyone could tell me where I could find more information about this.
Also, my landlord has now given me notice to vacate. It’s retaliation, but I’m not real sure what to do.
Thanks so much
