I am starting a hair extensions website and want to ensure that models who receive free hair extensions in exchange for modeling them on their Instagram do not later claim a percentage of my company's profits. Do I need a signed contract, or are email agreements sufficient?

I married a woman in South Carolina last year. She is 67 and on Social Security Income (SSI) making $950/month. I am 67, still working, making approximately $48,000/year, and drawing SSI at $1,600/month. I purchased a house in my name before the marriage, and she contributes nothing. I have paid all the bills, let her use a second car, and she rarely cooks or cleans. We have no sex or intimacy, which we had before the marriage. Now, she wants a divorce and I am frustrated. Should she be entitled to anything in the divorce?

I was arrested but not taken to jail for shoplifting at Target for $60. I have a ticket to show up at court that indicates a $1265 fine/bail when I go to court on the 12th of October. Will the judge send me to jail or just fine me, and what should I do?

My mother's caregiver received a $250.00 parking ticket for parking in a church lot in the District of Columbia during a festival where there were no available spaces for blocks. Can I dispute the ticket for her online (I have supporting documentation), or does the dispute have to come from her?

I have a judgment against me for a house I lost in 2010. How will that affect me getting another home loan, and what are my options if I don't have the money to pay it off? Additionally, how does this judgment affect my ability to get other types of loans, and does it show up on credit reports for car loans?
