Said he would buy my car for me, then kept my personal funds in his bank. I took care of this so called friend /brother like every second of the day, immobile, so it was never ending, won't discuss too much detail very unnerving, this also caused me back pain, head pain from previous skull injury. After I deposited personal checks of mine into his account $2500 greater then price of my car the immediate day I left for bad reasoning, he would not give me a check for my personal funds nor payments, instead stated "CONSIDER IT RENT." That has truly irritated me since I've repeatedly asked genuinely nicely to just give me my total personal amount adding the difference on too for vehicle, even offered half price not mentioning the costs it would've for the 24/7 care I provide and all costs. I need to know what legal direction do I start or follow to get this taken care of.. thx

All I can say is I hope u got it all in writing. Also, that the money went from your acct to his acct. Or you got a receipt showing u gave him cash for a certain reason. If you have no paper trail, then its ur word against his. You may just have to walk away.

Here in the US we have Small Claims Courts where u pay a small court cost and don't need a lawyer. The cap (depending on the area) is about 5k. But you need to prove there was a contract or paper trail. Or a witness to it. If u never discussed rent, then u may not owe it if u can prove u were his caretaker.

All this depends on ur countries laws if not in the US.

You have zero legal recourse. None. Your post makes zero sense, so please clarify, what contract you signed that mandated that you "take care" of a friend. Otherwise please contact a local attorney, to verify. You state that you paid your "friend" $2,500 .....and then write something about a car ... which instead sounds like you were conned. Why did you give him money?? In what country did all of this happen?

Who does that?
1) Puts their own money into someone else's checking account? If you are 47, shouldn't you know better?
2) Works for 6 months without pay?

This is a con job and does not come under the forum's focus on elder care. This could be one of those nigerian scammers.

You have been conned.
