My father recently passed away, and I lived with him in an apartment next door. I knew he had some policies, including a state policy for teachers that could cover his expenses. The beneficiary on the paperwork is his brother, but the state policy mentions next of kin, which would be me and my sibling. The brother is the executor, and I am the administrator, but he has informed me he is kicking me out of the home and not using the proceeds to assist the estate. I feel this was elder abuse because my father was in early dementia, and the brother is holding up the payment for funeral expenses. We are the estate and named, but the funding is going to a person who is not working in my favor. We have no standing to fight this even though SCPUBA says next of kin, which would be the children. What are my rights and how can I address this situation?

My auto insurance offers RideWell. Can using this app incriminate me or increase my liability? What if I just make a mistake on the road and someone gets hurt, would having this record of my vehicle's movement bankrupt me?

I received a threatening email from a creditor claiming I have an unpaid loan from more than 5 years ago and threatening legal action. I have been receiving these emails for a year. What should I do?

On 8-10-2021, I contracted with Premier Patio Covers to install a pergola over my patio. I paid 50% of the cost ($1,050.50) upfront, but the company did not complete the work and has not responded to my calls. I filed a claim with the Registrar of Contractors, who informed me on 4-4-2022 that the company's license has been revoked for violating ARS 32-1154 (A) (1). I have not received my deposit back. What legal actions can I take to recover my money?
