Volitle, mentally and emotionally abusive environment with another employee. Whom I found out he's sexually involved with

Possibly. Sounds like the makings of a lawsuit for which you should seek an employee-side civil litigator.
I bought my home from my grandmas estate. My aunt was executor of the estate. Part of the deal when buying the house was that uncle would help me install new siding. Since the moment I paid them they have 100% ignored me. I have the siding, but now need to pay someone to install it

What was in the written agreement? It's unlikely you can enforce an agreement to "help".
Yes he knew that the parties agreed to list the property for 120,000 and signed the listing agreement a month prior to him changing it,

Your question does not make clear what is really going on. It sounds like the referee determined a price for the house to be divided as part of the property settlement. If that's the case, I'm not seeing that as a "taking" and is within the court's and referee's... View More
My mother and I were ( I believe) wrongfully evicted from land that we had been renting to own for 12 years, and due to a blight complaint while cleaning out our garage (we all fell ill and had to stop working for a week or so) the guy we bought the land from said we had to give him 30,000 dollars...

A real estate attorney familiar with land contract law would need to review the default provisions of the land contract. Additionally, there is a legal process for forfeiture on a land contract. See more at: https://provenresource.com/land-contract-law/

Never ever once did he allow his client to view the contract he he signed and approved not once and he had no authority, nor did he a power of attorney to do anything on his client's behalf without clients knowledge

This is a question of "apparent authority" on the part of the attorney, as an agent of the client. Under that doctrine, the contract might be enforceable. Whether it is enforceable will depend upon the specific facts. It is possible that it is enforceable. That does not, however,... View More

Certainly, a lawyer would need to review the actual written agreement, but if it says, as you're indicating here, "I agree to care for the animals for this period of time, and if you don't come get them before that time ends, they are mine", then I think you are on solid legal... View More

It depends what the HOA has actually done to enforce the new policy. It sounds to me like it would be grandfathered in until typical HOA policies, but perhaps not. Unfortunately, if the HOA is making a bigger deal out of this than they should it might take a costly lawsuit to get the matter... View More

Being a single member LLC wouldn't change whether or not the late fee can be assessed on the company. It sort of depends on the contract you signed requiring you to pay in the first place to determine whether or not the late fee was properly assessed.

Something sounds fishy here. Land contracts don't typically 'expire' -- they mature at some point and you get a deed when the payments are all made.

No. There are no facts tgat yiu have provided that would support the general contractor’s holding onto your equipment. I would want to know more about the situation in order to evaluate the possibility that the general contractor has a justification for its actions.

Unless there’s a written contract that provides for your agreement to a price increase or surcharge, you nave a point. Your agreement in some form to a price increase is required. But if you agreed to a long-term arrangement, you owe at least the lower price. I suggest that this be worked out... View More

Regardless of the type of agreement you have, the most important information you could have is... you probably have a contract, and binding. But, what the terms of the agreement are, you'll probably need to hire an attorney and litigate it to ever know for certain.
