My daughter has a lawyer for an auto accident from two years ago, but he is not progressing the case. They have no signed agreement, and no lawsuit has been filed against the instigator who rear-ended her. Can she switch to a new lawyer with minimal financial issues, and does the current lawyer need to provide all related paperwork to the new lawyer?

I take Adderall but tested positive for meth on a non-DOT drug test administered by my employer during a carpal tunnel examination on my day off. Despite my doctor's explanation to HR, I was fired. I've worked for the company for 12 1/2 years, passed every DOT drug test, and am covered under DOT regulations. The company is fighting my union, and they claim the firing is just and within collective bargaining due to the positive test. What should I do?

Is there any Florida case law on F.S. 825 Abuse, neglect, and exploitation of Elderly persons? If not Florida, is there any case law elsewhere in the US? This is criminal law.

We have a tenant who has been renting our house for over 8 years. We decided to sell the house, which upset the tenant. They have since filed complaints with the housing authority for minor code violations and have been making demands for repairs and services. We suspect these actions are to prevent us from terminating their month-to-month lease. We are in California and want to know if we can serve notice to terminate the lease without it being considered retaliatory, especially since we notified them months ago about our intention to sell.

We financed the purchase of a home for our daughter in 2009, and our son has been residing in the home for the last 2.5 years. We are now getting ready to sell the house. Can I quit claim the house to my son and avoid capital gains tax since he has been residing in the home for 2.5 years? The home was never an investment property, and our children are the only ones that have lived in the home. We reside in Indiana.
