You don't need a lawyer.
Debra Thal (username) :
You can sue her in Small Claims Court.
Debra Thal (username) :
If the $2000 was not a loan then she cannot assume she gets it back.
Debra Thal (username) :
And a Court would likely require her to return the ring because she called off the engagement.
Debra Thal (username) :
Generally the law is that an engagement ring is a conditional gift only.
Debra Thal (username) :
It was conditional on getting married.
Debra Thal (username) :
I would send her a demand letter providing her a deadline for returning the ring and indicating that you will commence legal proceedings if she does not comply by the deadline.
Debra Thal (username) :
You can then sue her in Small Claims Court and self-represent.
Customer:
Yes that is what i thought thank you. I don't know why she just won't give it back. She is Greek so she has different morals and views.
