Hi, I have been accused by my neighbor of stealing his mother’s heirlooms from a storage unit near my parking spot. He has given me a letter stating that I have 10 days to return them or he will file a lawsuit. I have no idea what he is missing or if the items even exist. Can this be a lawsuit without any evidence, and could I put a restraining order on him due to his aggressive behavior?

I have a civil case where the defendant's lawyer has contacted me twice to discuss a settlement before our trial on Thursday. I'm uncomfortable talking to him and want to know if anything I say could be used against me in court. Additionally, the judge granted a default on the defendant's counterclaim, and I'm unsure how this affects my initial lawsuit. Should I respond to the lawyer's settlement inquiries, and if so, how should I proceed?

I would like to file a lawsuit against my old veterinarian due to malpractice. My dog was diagnosed with Mange and received treatment that included expired medication and delayed prescriptions due to clerical errors. This worsened her condition, leading to weight loss and loss of mobility. I have evidence from Chewy.com and a second opinion from another vet who confirmed the malpractice. What are the steps to file a lawsuit, and how does the payment work for the lawyer?

My downstairs neighbor is harassing and stalking me, admitting to banging on the ceiling while I'm sleeping. I have proof of this behavior and a no-contact order in place since September 2023. Despite this, the management is not renewing my lease and wants me to move. What are my rights and legal options against both my neighbor and the management?

I need to file a lawsuit for fraudulent misrepresentation causing a huge financial loss. My mother-in-law falsified documents to bury my husband in another state without my consent, and I now have to pay to have him exhumed. What type of attorney should I appoint, and what are my legal options?
