I am homeless, on General Assistance and food stamps, and recently had issues with my unemployment benefits. I don't have much money and need legal assistance. What type of attorney should I look for in the pro-bono sector for homeless veterans in San Jose, and how can I find such assistance?

I am creating a website for our church and need to use pictures of people, including adults and children, from church services, dinners, and social activities. What are the laws regarding obtaining release forms for these pictures, especially in large settings where it's impractical to get individual consent?

I live in Pasco County, Florida, and am currently on drug offender probation, which was supposed to end in February 2011. I violated my probation a few months ago for testing positive for Xanax. My probation officer accused me of tampering with a drug test due to taking Azo for a urinary tract infection, which turns urine orange. The judge offered me 6 months in county jail and 1 year of community control. The lab test came back showing the original test was diluted, and I tested clean in a subsequent test. My probation officer has not informed me if I am violated again or not, and I have a court appearance soon. Should I be prepared to go to jail, or can she not violate me for taking over-the-counter medications like Azo?
