I need to talk to an attorney about a case evaluation. I was leaving to go to Oregon and during my absence, someone stole a significant amount of my jewelry, which I had collected over 28 years. What steps should I take to address this situation?

I need to find an aggressive attorney who specializes in will challenges/contests and can represent me in Preble County, Ohio. The opposing party has submitted an altered will to the probate court after admitting to changing it post-death. I am within my time frame to contest the will but need a highly experienced attorney who is not just capable of handling will contests.

I need legal guidance for a dispute with my landlords not returning my security deposit in Oakland, California. They owe me $7,530 or more overdue. I left the home in immaculate clean condition on December 18, 2022, but they sent me an email on January 4, 2023, making numerous false claims of damages. I have pictures and testimonials from their groundskeeper as to the excellent condition of the house. I reside in Florida now and have already sent them a dispute letter via email. I plan to file a lawsuit in small claims court in Alameda County, California. What are the next steps, and how should I handle service if they live in Oregon?

As a landlord, how many days notice do I need to give to my tenant to vacate the premises after a 6-month lease rolls into a month-to-month agreement? Do I need any legal reason to give a 30-day notice?
