I applied for a brewery license in Florida but was denied because my location is not in a manufacturing zone, even though other breweries are not in such zones either. The county admits their error in licensing these other breweries but refuses to issue me a license under identical circumstances. What type of attorney should I consult, and what legal steps can I take to address this issue?

My husband died suddenly in March. We were separated but never divorced, and my youngest daughter, who was living with him and is in college, is now considered overhoused by the property manager. We asked if I could be added to the paperwork to help her, but were told it would be cheating the system. I found paperwork listing me as temporarily missing from home, which still considers me part of the family. Would this help in keeping the house to avoid homelessness? We are in California, SLO County, under VASH HUD housing. My daughter is confused, and I have no clue how this works. Her sister also qualifies for a housing grant. Both girls are in therapy and not ready to be alone.

I was contacted by a past girlfriend from 22 years ago who claims I owe back child support for a child I was not aware of. The child is now 20 years old, and there was no initial support order filed. Is it possible for her to be awarded back support for a child that is 20 when there was no initial support order filed?

Can my boss legally demote me from my sales position and take my commission from me on my first day back from work comp days off? I am a full-time salaried employee earning $40,000 per year plus 5% commission, with paid fuel expenses. My boss had me purchase a vehicle for work purposes and has not compensated me for its usage. I never received any warnings or write-ups for lack of performance or insubordination, and customers were informed that I was no longer with the company while I was on workman's comp.
