Moved from CA to TX. Movers put household goods in storage. When we picked them up we brought a rental truck. Storage company (same as moving company) said leave the truck they will pack it. Picked up the truck & signed a HHgoods inventory list. It said "owners signature at destination means all items loaded have been received & obvious loss or damage has been noted. signing the inventory does not waive any right to file a claim" When we got home & unpacked found items missing. Called movers. They said file a claim & they would put out a trace on the items. Trace came back negative. Movers denied my claim because they said I signed the HHGoods inventory & they were not responsible because if anything was missing there would have been boxes missing & that I signed the HHGoods inventory list & by doing so I was saying all my belongings were there. When I said that the HHGoods inventory list says "obvious loss" & that " signing does not waive any right to file a claim" I was told that the boxes were numbered & if anything was missing I was responsible for the loss & that they did accept my claim so my rights there were not denied. Did I sign away my right to be compensated for my losses? Should I invest in a lawyer?
