I hired an interstate mover to pack and transport my entire house from Nebraska to Arizona. They only completed about 2/3 of the packing in 55 man hours and packed only six boxes themselves. I had to make additional trips with my SUV and rent a trailer to finish the move, incurring unexpected expenses of $6396.17. The mover provided an onsite revised binding estimate increasing the cubic feet from 1430 to 1750. I removed seven furniture items from the original list as we decided not to bring them. I initiated arbitration on May 9, 2023, and finally received the arbitration information on October 2, 2023, after multiple follow-ups and complaints. The moving company is based in Colorado but states that legal proceedings should be in Dade County, Florida. Can my issue be brought to arbitration or court, and would the jurisdiction clause preclude small claims court? If small claims court is an option, which state should I file in?

I live next to a rental property where the tenants are causing issues such as damaging property, being loud, and creating a safety concern. The property owner does nothing to address these issues, and local code enforcement has also failed to take action. What legal steps can I take to rectify this situation?

I forgot my keys were in my bag when I traveled to Washington, and on my keys was a women's self-defense brass knuckle from a self-defense set I received. TSA found it and said they will start an investigation. What might happen after this?

I bought a condo in June at Clearwater. The seller signed a paper saying he didn't know of any damage. I discovered major termite damage during new sliding doors installation. The pest control company notes show they treated the same issue in November 2022. What should I do now?

I have a legal case in which I have filed and successfully received a Civil Protection Order against someone. I have received notice from the court that a Modification hearing will be taking place in two weeks. I have had to miss work to handle this legal issue and want my supervisors to provide written statements about my missed work. I was told the company needs to receive a legal notice to do so. Additionally, I have spoken with a therapist about anxiety and panic attacks caused by this person. Would they also need to receive a legal notice to provide testimony?
