There is not much to add as the previous response was pretty thorrow. He can visit just to visit on a B2 or visa waiver but if he plans to visit to get married, then the fiance will need to depart for consular processing to avoid extra scrutiny based on immigrant intent and potential... View More

I am lost. Could you please give more context. What is your employer's position? Or is it even related to your employment? It is not illegal to take a picture of someone in a public place.

More information is needed but it sounds like you may have a claim.

No. The employer cannot force you to take the FMLA leave. If both ADA and FMLA apply, you are entitled to pick the more beneficial option. Sounds like you may need to contact an attorney.

My question is why were you let go? You may have other employment related claims besides the Wage and Hour Act. For instance, if you were terminated in retaliation for your request to be paid as promised, you may have a wrongful termination and REDA claims. Provide more details please.

The employer can recover the overpayment. I would advice the employee to return the money to avoid being accused of stealing it. Once you are on notice that you are not entitled to the overpayment and still refuse to return it, this could rise to conversion (stealing). It does not matter that there... View More

There is a lot going on here. Wage and Hour Act appears to have been violated in addition to REDA, retaliation claim. You should contact an attorney.

More information is necessary to properly assess your case. One thing is clear - you have to move fast and not sit on this one any longer. You will need an attorney.

When did you file for a T-visa? If you filed before your other visa expired, you should be "in status" while your application is being considered. Which visa was it, by the way? It would be helpful to know how you were admitted to the US, since you claim that you are a victim of... View More

While you were married for a short period of time, I do not believe that annulment is an option. File for an absolute divorce. I do not think this will be an issue in light of the circumstances. You do need to speak to a SC family law attorney, since serving your former spose could be an issue. Was... View More

This is not a workers' comp question, but employment law instead. The answer will depend on the arrangement you had with your employer in regard to the use of the company vehicle. Were you given a company vehicle to drive? Did you also get a gas card? Were you allowed to take the vehicle to... View More

I agree with my colleagues. I also recommend hiring an attorney. USCIS sometimes takes a position that an applicant misrepresented their intent, if they enter on a B2, which could lead to a denial of your I-130 petition based on misrepresentation. Schedule a consultation! Immigration law is very... View More

Yes, if your wife resigns voluntarily, she will likely be denied unemployment benefits. Was her infection in any way connected to her employment? Is she able to work now? She could be entitled to workers' comp benefits. I am not clear why her employer is asking her to resign. This could give... View More

You should retain a criminal defense attorney. He or she may be able to make all the difference. Do not face this alone! Once the case is resolved, you could probably expunge it. Good luck!

I agree with my colleagues. Check out some immigration attorneys and schedule a consultation - virtual or in person.

Absolutely. You do need an attorney to guide you through this process as you might have to adjust your status as a "battered spouse." Physical abuse is not a requirement - it can be purely psychological in nature. Abandonment would fall under the category of "extreme cruelty."... View More

As long as your fiance is not out of status (his visa hasn't expired), you can certainly get married here in the US. The best part is that he does not need to leave the country to adjust his status. In addition, while it may not impact your case, the Biden administration is working on changing... View More

I am a bit confused. From a business prospective, you are free to choose any name you want. On the other hand, you may be violating (infringing) some intellectual property laws, if your brand name is too similar to another brand. Talk to an intellectual property attorney.

Do you have your employment contract handy? I would need to examine what was promised to you at the time you accepted employment. NC Wage and Hour Act may have been implicated, here if your employer failed to pay wages as promised.

Are you a member of a protected class? Based on race, color, national origin, gender, age, or disability? If you are a female and your coworker is a male individual, you could have a potential claim for discrimination. Similarly, if you are an African American and your coworker is white, you may...
