I am having an event with some celebrities. I am not paying them to come but I am doing tons of PR with their name on fliers, radio, magazines, etc. What type of legal contract do I need stating that if they do not come then they owe me money? Also is there a way that I can find this contract online and then just change it around that way I don't have to pay any lawyer fees?? Thanks..

My problem is that when I started working at my job, my employer told me that I would be starting work at 4a.m. every morning. He also mentioned that I may have to come in to work a little earlier when it gets busy. Well, I understand that it is the holidays coming up, but he is having us all come in two hours earlier for several days throughout the week. When he tells us this it is usually the week ahead of time (at most). Then he proceeds to tell us (the employees) that is we do not come in at that time then we are fired. Now my question is that if (on the date hired) he tells us that we have a certain time that we come in everyday is it right to make us work overtime (come in 2 hours earlier)???

That pretty much sums it up.. we don't want any dishonest people in our office. Someone stole $100 from one of the girls' purses today, and we want to polygraph all of the employees that were there during that shift. Is this legal? What if someone refused?

I understand why you can't yell fire in a theatre. I understand why i can't shoot someone. I am willing to give up those things.
But if america is so free why can't i drive without a seatbelt?
or be convicted of disorderly conduct? can you have mere "disorderly conduct" as a charge in a free society.

I am a college sophomore. My college says that all freshmen and sophomores must live on campus. I am planning on moving out at semester, but will still be a sophomore. Why is is that they won't allow sophomores to move out, but if you do something wrong or don't pay, you get evicted? Are those my only options or do I have legal rights to living off campus?

Hello,
I work in a small business and when I was hired my bosses said I had to become a notary. So now I am one and a few months back I notarized a basic statement for a woman and she has since died. Now her brother wants to convert that statement to a will and I have to make an oath before a clerk in order to do so.

I work for a small office where I am the only one here. If I go to court it requires me to shut down the business and lose money. It is very inconvenient to me. I would have to go downtown and use my gas and time to do this. They offered salary reimbursement but I feel this is not worth shutting down the business or the stress.

His lawyer has been calling me constantly threatening that he'll get a subpoena. Can he do this? It was just a rudimentary document that I notarized with no required witnesses. What can I do?

Thanks

Waiting for my SSA disability to kick in, I have been forced onto public assistance. At the DHS office, DHS required that I submit copies of my birth certificate, driver's license and Social Security Number Card. After submitting all this information DHS then said I didn't qualify, because I wasn't a USA citizen without signing an affidavit stating I was; HUH?!!! Then DHS refused to give me an affidavit to sign in front of a notary, stating "It must be signed in our presence." Finally, after a 7 hour wait in the DHS office and nearly getting arrested, because DHS then said I have to come back tomorrow and I refused. Only when a late working supervisor got wind of the situation and talked with the police was I able to sign said affidavit and charges against me were dropped.

I have allergies to certain plants and chemicals. I was constantly asked to work in the garden center by my employers. They needed a doctor's statement which I feel is unnecessary because when I was first hired, I was told I would only be working on the frontend as a cashier. The person who interviewed me does not work there anymore. But regardless, doctor's statement or not, I should not have been harrassed. This company is obviously not staffed well. I have been asked to work in other areas as a cashier but in these departments, I had no knowledge of my surroundings, which made me feel unhelpful to the customers. I feel it's the company's way of getting rid of the old and putting in the new seeings that I was one of the best and fastest cashiers there.

He was born and raised in the US. He lost his ID. His birth certificate is an original, and has some immunization records on the back, so the state of colorado DMV will not accept it. He needs ID in NY to get a new copy of the birth cert, which he cannot get without the ID... Can anyone see the way out of this loop?

A relative passed away almost three years ago and left everything 50/50 to two people who aren't arguing about anything.
The attorney that was appointed to handle this by the relative before they passed refuses to finish taking care of things. Court deadlines have been missed. Nothing is settled.
What are our rights? - how can we make him get this done? Please help!

A supervisor shared with at least 3 co-workers why a person did not receive a promotion. Could you go after this person for confidentiality issues or is there more you could do?
