Angie was in an accident on 4/16/2009. The driver and another passenger died, but Angie was taken to the hospital where they recommend removing her tubes and letting her die. Her son and daughter are not ready to let her go and believe that with feeding and breathing tubes, Angie could survive for a long time. They want to give her more time to see if she wakes up. If they decide to install the feeding and breathing tubes and later feel it was the wrong choice, can they withdraw support and let her die without legal problems?

If you live with your spouse in a common law marriage for eight years, have three children, and the person wants you to leave or evict you, what are that person's rights? They have no lease but have been living there for five or more years. How much time do they have before they have to leave?

I live in Missouri and own several rental properties. Recently, a couple moved into one of my homes and were supposed to pay rent 5 days after moving in. They stayed for 4 days, received a check from a program called Cash for Keys, and then claimed the house was making them sick due to meth and moved out without paying. I had to fax our rental agreement to the Cash for Keys program and to the couple's mother's recruiter. When they moved out, I notified all parties that the contract had been voided and that they were no longer living in my residence. Was it okay for me to do that, and what should I do to check for meth? They accused me of invasion of privacy.

I filed a lawsuit seeking $1.8 million on November 4 against NY defendants, but I need a lawyer to move the case forward as the defendants have indicated that they will move to dismiss the case. The case involves excessive damage of property during a building search, ADA issues, and retaliation. I live in CA. How can I locate a lawyer willing to work on contingency?
