How can I charge someone with theft of my car in Georgia if I take him to small claims court? I have a verbal agreement where I loaned money to buy the car, and he broke the agreement by not repaying me.

My mother passed away, and she had a 2 million dollar estate. I was her power of attorney, and Bob Deck was her attorney. Some of my siblings conspired to get another attorney who changed the trust while still being represented by Bob. How do I charge him for being unethical?

My wife opened credit cards in my name without my knowledge in Tennessee, and we are now in Texas where I am filing for divorce. Can I file fraud charges, and is there a statute of limitations? Additionally, her son made unauthorized purchases on my credit card recently in Texas.

I received a survey from the US Census Bureau, and they claim our response is required by law. We feel it's government overreach. Do we legally have to respond to this, and what are the potential consequences if we don't?

I have a car that was declared a total loss by the insurance company due to storm damage. The insurance company requires a scrappage title to pay the claim, but I do not have the original title. I traded the damaged car with a dealer for a new car, and the dealer agreed to send me the duplicate title to apply for a scrappage title. However, the dealer has not fulfilled this agreement. Additionally, the dealer has not provided the title for the new car I purchased. What actions can I take to resolve this situation, including applying for a duplicate title, ensuring the damaged car is not put back on the road, obtaining a title for the new car, and understanding the consequences if the dealer does not apply for a title within the required 30 days?
