My daughter is being stalked by her ex-boyfriend since they broke up 6 months ago. We have already been to the police 3 times, and every time he stopped contacting her for 30 days and then started again. Today he was in front of our house, took a picture, and sent it to her brother. What steps should she take to protect herself, and is it better for her to go to court alone or with an attorney? Additionally, how can we find a local attorney specialized in stalking cases?

Wells Fargo closed my daughter's brokerage account and subsequently my own, giving us 30 days to transfer the accounts or face liquidation and restricted access. I did not receive timely notice, which led to my account being frozen during the transfer process, resulting in lost income of approximately $6000 - $8000 due to the inability to trade during a market decline. Additionally, I was charged a $125 fee for the account closure/transfer and incurred additional margin interest charges. Despite writing to the VP in charge and receiving no response, I seek compensation for my losses. What legal options do I have, and how can I find an aggressive lawyer to tackle this problem?

I have a question regarding unpaid overtime when your pay is based on a draw system. The workplace has no way to track hours worked (no clock-in system, no time sheet system, etc.), and I'm not sure if it's hourly or salaried. The pay structure is a draw against future commissions at a rate of $1500 per pay period, up to $6k, and then the draw stops. I spend more than 40 hours a week in my office and additional time meeting with realtors or working overtime, but there is no method for documenting overtime hours, even though sick days and doctor visits are documented.
