Do I have any recourse if an employer fires me 'unjustifiably'? Specifically, I work as a computer support tech and my manager threatens to fire me because I am not self-sufficient due to not being given the necessary resources to perform certain tasks, which other co-workers have. Can I negotiate a severance, sue for wrongful termination, or both?

My landlord’s lawyer sent me a notice to move out at the end of July because my baby's father was smoking outside the property. I have a 1-year-old son and no place to go with him. I live in Massachusetts. Should I contact their lawyer or hire a lawyer to represent me?

I live in Reno, Nevada and am having issues with my apartment's leasing terms. My lease states that I am only responsible for electric, but the apartment is now charging me for utilities. My leasing agent is threatening to lock me out with the police, but I haven't received any court documents or notices. What should I do next?

I need a family lawyer to answer a question. I am in Cuyahoga County, Ohio, and have a court hearing tomorrow for emergency custody involving a case type of abuse, neglect, and dependence. I am accused of neglect for missing a doctor's appointment and a blood workup, which I have since completed. My daughter has failure to thrive and trouble gaining weight. I want to know if I already passed a drug test earlier with them, as they originally came into my life due to false allegations of drugs and sexual abuse, which were officially found unsubstantiated. The current complaint only states that I fail to keep my daughter's medical needs and that my mental health issues impede upon that, and says nothing about substance abuse. Additionally, I want to know if drug tests typically take place at the hearing or are they typically ordered by the judge at the end of the trial?
