I put a down payment on a vehicle that was later confiscated before I could make the first payment. The dealership allowed me to leave with signed paperwork, but the bank didn't approve my loan, so they confiscated the vehicle and kept my down payment. Is my down payment refundable, and can the dealership charge mileage and recovery fees?

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?

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?
