I think I may have been exposed to asbestos at my workplace in Charlotte, NC, and the company is trying to cover it up. I developed an unknown cough about a month ago, and the popcorn ceiling in my building started falling. The administrator asked for an asbestos test, but nothing was done. I took a sample myself and sent it to a lab for testing. I am also seeing my primary care physician to check for any health issues related to this exposure. What should I do next?

I am a psychotherapist. A psychologist in another state has been filing 1099s to the IRS with my name since 2016. I don't know this psychologist, have no business agreement with her, and I'm not even licensed to provide services in her state. I have not seen any clients on her behalf, so the 1099s appear to be an effort at fraud. I presume that her motivation is to unload tax liability. I am aware that this psychologist was convicted of Medicaid fraud in 2016. For the tax year 2016, the IRS ruled in my favor, agreeing that the 1099 for that year was invalid. But apparently the IRS is going to go year by year, starting at the beginning each year. I'm wondering about the best legal way to resolve this issue.

I received a courtesy car from Toyota and returned it without any damage. However, one day later, they informed me that the car had been damaged and accused me of a hit and run. They claim to have footage of the car being returned, but it is blurred. They asked me to report to the police. What should I do?
