I am a small business owner and I am having a friend help me with parts of the business such as making promo videos or beta testing. How can I best protect myself to ensure my friend doesn't later try to steal my intellectual property (IP)? Also, how can I set up a contract to pay him fairly that protects both parties?

Can you please interpret this notice from the landlord (90 days)? The new property owner took over 3 years ago, and I have not gotten along with them. There were issues with the accounting changeover from CBRE not properly crediting my balance, and after 20 hours of work to show payments lost/not credited, LINK abandoned the effort and left an incorrect balance due on my account. I have also mentioned that CBRE charged tenants $4,000.00 annually for management, while LINK (the landlord owner company) charges $11,000.00+ annually (three times as much). I still have a civil matter against the owner and Pacific Gas & Electric for switched electric meters where I paid for a 5K space, and my neighbor paid for my 3K space. No one knows about this case yet.

I have someone who owes me $400 and this person keeps promising to pay me. I would like to speak to someone so that I can explain the worst part. My name is ***** and my phone number is (###) ###-####. I am in California. What steps have I taken so far? None except texting and asking when they are going to pay me. I was told in a text that I would get my money this week in full, but last night I was called by this person who made up a crazy story saying that I am having a young boy calling and threatening them. I have no idea what or who they are talking about; it is just a lie. I have text messages and phone recordings saved. What should I do next?
