My Chinese client is being deposed as a plaintiff in a civil suit for Quiet Title. She does not speak or understand English, so the defense has hired a Cantonese-speaking translator. I want my client's sister to assist her during the deposition, but the defense intends to depose the sister as well. The sister is not a party to the case but signed a declaration of facts important to the case. Can the defense add the sister to the deposition without a subpoena since she is not a party? What rules or case law control this situation? How can I prevent the sister from being deposed at this time, as she is there to assist me and my client?

I am the only lease holder in my apartment complex and have two other occupants. The apartment complex recently sent a copy of my lease renewal to my occupants without my consent. Is this legal in Florida?

Good afternoon Olivia. We spoke earlier today about a faulty background check report. I'm trying to find proof that could be useful to clear up the error. Might I ask a couple of follow up questions?

I was fired for what was considered misconduct/ethics violation. My unemployment was denied but I can appeal. Is it worth appealing my unemployment benefits?

My girlfriend was in a relationship with a man for 7 years and bought a work van/truck for him due to his poor credit/finances. The relationship ended shortly after the purchase, but the vehicle and loan remain in her name. He makes payments to her in cash, and he handles the insurance. She has repeatedly asked him to transfer the vehicle and loan out of her name, but he promises to do so without action. The vehicle is registered to her in PA, and the loan is in her name only. We are concerned about potential liability if he uses the vehicle improperly. Should we involve the police to retrieve the vehicle from his residence if they are willing to assist?
