I am an individual architect and my partner, who is an engineer, competed in a three-phase design competition initiated by the FAA to build new airport towers. We passed into phase II and now need to respond to an RFQ. My partner's firm, which led phase I, cannot lead phase II due to financial and experience constraints. We plan to partner with larger firms for phase II onwards. The FAA states that the offeror from phase I will be considered the lead contractor for phase II and must disclose financial capability. We want to transfer the lead contractor right to one of the larger firms we are partnering with. What is the best legal set of documents needed to: 1. Legally transfer the 'lead contractor right' to another firm to maximize the FAA's acceptance of the transfer. 2. Ensure we stay in the competition without being pushed out of the potential contract if selected as a finalist?

I was forced to check a carry-on bag that fit within American Airlines' carry-on policy, which was full of lithium-ion batteries and camera gear not covered by their lost or damaged policy. The bag was valued at ~$13k, but their policy only covers up to $3800. I am a premiere status member and followed all rules, but they checked my bag, causing potential damages. This gear is crucial to my livelihood, and I believe AA broke policy by forcing me to check my bag, causing mental anguish and public embarrassment. I am in Nevada, and the issue is unresolved. What steps should I take to pursue compensation, and how does the process work?

I own a mobile home in Nevada where my brother, who is not mentally fit, lives. He has destroyed the property and refuses to comply with city ordinances. I have a power of attorney on him, but it's not effective as the attorney is in prison. I've contacted social services and APS for help, but they haven't provided any assistance. I need to get him out of the mobile home to avoid fines or worse, but I don't know how to proceed. What legal actions can I take to evict him and ensure he gets the help he needs?

We have a property in North Carolina that we initially wanted to sell and signed a sales agreement, but now we want to keep it in the family. No deposits were made, and the closing was pending a soil test of the property. Is there a way to break the sales agreement?

My girlfriend and I adopted a dog together in 2014. We broke up in 2019, and the dog has been with me since. Recently, I had to leave the dog with my ex-girlfriend temporarily, but she is refusing to return the dog. I am the registered owner on the microchip, and the shelter has updated the ownership documents to reflect this. What legal steps do I need to take to recover my dog, and how long might this process take?
