I was sued in Florida by a church that was the beneficiary of a trust. The bank accounts were left to me, my children, and my ex-daughter-in-law by Pay on Death. I lost my appeal in Florida, and now have a judgment against me. The judgment was transferred as a foreign judgment to the Tennessee courts, and I hired a lawyer here who has been suspended from practicing law. I am trying to find out: 1) Can a foreign judgment be appealed or what steps can I take to fight this due to the lawyer not filing any answers in my case? 2) With my judgment being brought as a foreign judgment to Tennessee, how does the enforcement work, by Florida law or by Tennessee law?

One of our employees claims to have gotten injured while setting off the sprinklers, and we received a notice from a lawyer's office claiming Worker's Comp. The report states she is injured in several places, but we have video evidence contradicting this. Should we stop her from coming to work unless she provides a doctor's notice stating she is eligible to work, despite her injuries? Should we hire a lawyer, or should we let our insurance handle everything?

A warranty company took an excessive amount of time to repair a major water leak under my home, causing damage to my house foundation. It has been about a year since the incident, and I am no longer with the company. Is it too late to seek a remedy for the damage?

I have an instinct that a group of women living next door want to blackmail me into sleeping with them. Is this harassment, and what should I do if I'm being coerced or threatened with exposure to my girlfriend?

I am an 84-year-old guardian of a 52-year-old mentally handicapped daughter. I tried filing her annual Guardianship plan with the Clerk of the Circuit Court, but it was returned specifying the need for an 'Order approving the plan'. Do I mail the Guardianship Plan somewhere to have the plan attached? Or do I just include a blank Order form and if so, where do I get the Form and where do I mail the completed package?
