I recently moved to Canton, NC, and hired movers who damaged my well pump while maneuvering their truck. The pump was sent to the bottom of the well, requiring two days to retrieve and repair, costing $180. However, the pump failed two days later due to the initial damage, necessitating a replacement pump costing $1300. The moving company accused me of duplicating work orders and offered to pay only $180 for the first visit. What can I do?

My husband has diffuse Lewy body disease and is ready for discharge from a hospital rehab unit, but he needs 24-hour assistance and supervision. I cannot continue to care for him at home, and he insists on returning home. I have found a skilled nursing facility (SNF) that meets his needs and his insurance (Medicare), but he only agrees to it temporarily. I'm unsure if he will stick to this decision at discharge time. What legal options do I have to ensure he receives the necessary care, even if it is against his will?

Someone used my ATM card number and code to make a fraudulent $1521.95 rent payment in Glendale, AZ, using a CA company. The person who made the payment has the same name as the person who signed me up for personal training at my gym, where I last set up an automatic payment using my ATM card. I can't prove it was him, but the coincidence is too great. I also found out that this person has a criminal record and was working with Custom Built Personal Training, having access to customers' payment info. The PHX police won't do anything because the internet/phone was used, making it a federal offense. Do I have any kind of case against the gym or the personal training company? I didn't lose any money since the bank told me I wasn't responsible for the fraud, but this must be stopped. How do I proceed?

I have a subscription to Shutterstock and am writing a poetry and short story book that will be sold commercially. I want to use some pictures from the site, but I am unclear if I am covered under their 'standard license' for this. Specifically, I am using a Print On Demand (POD) publisher, and Shutterstock's license does not explicitly allow POD for books. I need clarification on whether my use of the images in a commercially sold book is permitted under the 'standard license'.
