Legal Question in Consumer Law in Kentucky

Re: LP Gas company

It is not possible to give you a clear legal answer to your inquiry without a more detailed evaluation of the facts of your case. Several questions are presented:

1. Did you sign a written contract with the LP gas company? A written contract will state your rights and obligations, and, in the event of a disagreement, should be reviewed by a lawyer, who can advise you of your rights.

2. Does the storage tank belong to the LP gas company? Many gas companies provide a storage tank free or at nominal rental cost to customers, with an agreement that the customer will purchase gas from them exclusively. Sometimes the gas companies will require a minimum yearly purchase for use of this storage tank.

Make sure you read and understand the terms of any written agreement you sign.

You are best advised to seek the services of a competent Kentucky attorney. You can telephone your local bar association for a referral, or can find a good lawyer on-line at the Kentucky Bar Association's Lawyer Referral Service:
