My 11-year-old son is being accused of stabbing a girl at school with a plastic knife. The police questioned him and told him to admit it due to evidence and witnesses. My son denies the accusation and claims he was assaulted by another student who is also a witness. The school is considering expulsion, and the girl's parents are pressing charges. What legal steps should I take to address this situation?

I work for a nursing facility as the financial manager. A few months after I started, the Payroll Benefits Coordinator (PBC) and Accounts Payable person resigned. The old PBC wrote a letter to the facility supervisor stating false information about the new PBC and myself 'running the show' while the supervisor was away on vacation. The letter also falsely claimed that we were gossiping about the supervisor being fired. The envelope was handwritten, and I have old documents showing the old PBC's handwriting, which matches the envelope. Do I have legal recourse demonstrating sabotage is transpiring with a former employee?

I am a professional yacht captain who was hired as a relief captain on a US-flagged yacht in the USA for 104 days without a contract. The owner filed a 1099 MISC form for my wages, which I understand makes me a self-employed person and increases my income tax. Should this employment have been filed on a W2 instead?
