Question

I ATTEND CAMELOT COLLEGE. WE HAVE A 12 O'CLOCK CURFEW AND I CAME IN LATE FROM WORK AN HOUR AFTER CURFEW, IT WASN'T MY FAULT I DIDN'T KNOW I HAD TO WORK THAT LATE. THE SECURITY GUARD AT THE GATE REFUSED TO LET ME IN, HE TOLD ME TO GO BACK WHERE I CAME FROM, BIENG IGNORANT OF THE FACT I COULDN'T, I DIDN'T HAVE A RIDE AND MY PHONE WAS DEAD, SO I COULDN'T CALL ANYONE. HE WOULDN'T LET ME USE THE PHONE IN THE GUARD SHACK, SAYING THAT STUDENTS WEREN'T ALLOWED TO USE THE PHONE. SO I HAD TO WALK AWAY FROM THE GATE TO NOWHERE IN PARTICULAR AND AFTER 15 MINTUES OF WALKING IN THE COLD IN A BAD NEIGHBORHOOD I GOT ROBBED I HAD MORE THAN $300.00 ON ME THAT NIGHT I KNEW THE GUY WHO DID IT, HE WANTED TO TALK TO ME BUT I WASN'T INTERESTED, HE HELD A GUN TO MY HEAD, AND SHOOK ME DOWN. I DIDN'T CALL THE POLICE BECAUSE I WAS SCARED HE WOULD SEND SOMEONE AFTER ME. THE STORY IS MUCH LONGER. TO GET TO THE POINT, DO I HAVE A CASE? WHO WOULD DEFEND ME IN LOUISIANA?

Answer

You do have a case against the school in my opinion. It was negligent of the school not to allow you to at least use a phone and to send you away at such a late hour. You should first report the robbery to the police. The incident should be documented in order to prove that you were actually robbed.

An attorney may want a retainer paid upfront in order to represent you, but some attorneys may work for you on a contingency fee basis.
