We have been dealing with a UIM first party claim for almost 10 years with State Farm in Illinois. The process has been confusing, with our attorney initially wanting to withdraw and then offering to take the case back.

What should we expect going forward and is this normal practice for UIM claims with insurance companies?

My husband was fired from his CPA firm (EWH) for breaching a non-compete contract by working for clients on the side. The firm discovered several other clients he had worked for using company software, billing them, and donating a portion of the money. He had a total of 10 EWH clients he took on for various reasons, with total billing of approximately $20,000. What is the possibility that EWH will sue him for this amount, and do companies typically sue former employees for lost revenue when they have a competing side business? How much should we worry about this?

I need to ship my car and household belongings from South Korea to the US through a CT-based company that subcontracted with a Korean company. Due to issues with the car's packaging, it was quarantined at the NY port, incurring significant charges. The two companies are blaming each other, and I am being asked to pay the charges first before seeking reimbursement. Additionally, the Korean company is demanding payment for the household belongings before releasing the necessary documents. What should I do in this situation?
