In the State of Michigan, if a husband and wife jointly draft a will and the husband dies, does the wife have 100% control over the estate and the ability to nullify the joint will and draft a new one? Additionally, if the wife has since passed away, how can I obtain a copy of the joint will they signed before the husband's death?

I hired a contractor in Virginia 15 months ago to complete a job that should have taken no longer than a month for $5000. I paid $2500 upfront, but he only completed 25% of the work. I fired him due to his delays and poor work quality, but he is now demanding additional payment for work he did not do and threatening to remove a door he installed. Can he legally take the door, and what legal actions can I take to resolve this issue?

I am seeking legal counsel to represent me in a child support hearing in Pittsburgh, PA on 03/07/18. I have received a letter from the court of common pleas with a PACSES case number, docket number, and the date I must appear. The child in question was born 8 years ago to another person, not my wife of 20 years. My wife and I have three children under the age of 16 who are dependent on us. Will my current obligations to my family be considered when the court determines how much I must pay for the child support hearing?
