My husband was verbally and via email told he would get a promotion by his department head, but it did not happen because the department head was not authorized to give the promotion. Is this a breach of contract, and could 'apparent authority' under the laws of agency apply here?

My mother-in-law passed away and left her house to my minor children in her will. Her live-in boyfriend is still at the home and is refusing entry for cleaning/retrieving personal items. Does the live-in boyfriend have any right to refuse entry to the home, and how should we proceed in the state of Illinois?

I took $90,000 out of my safe IRA and transferred it into silver coins for investment shelter, but two weeks later, the investment was down 50%.
