I need a contract clause that will protect my fee paid to the contractor for retainer in the event of termination related to gross negligence, material default, or misrepresentation on the part of the contractor. What do you mean by your "fee"? What type of work is the contractor doing for you? What is the total cost of the project? The only way to protect any money in dealing with contractors is to put the amount in escrow, has the contractor, or will the contractor agree to this?

I tried to negotiate with the credit card company to stop interest or lower the rate but they refused. Now, a collection agency is contacting me and my family, leaving messages and calling my workplace, threatening 'pending charges'. Is this a privacy violation, and what should I do?

What should I present or say, and is it too much to ask for a sizable settlement and a public apology if my employer damaged my character?

Regarding my father-in-law's trust, there is a stipulation of a six-month timeframe for the disposal of the house. Does this start from the time of death or when the sister decides to start working on the trust? Additionally, can the trust be voided if a copy is made, and when does the timeframe for the trust's stipulations begin?
