Q: Can a company require you to wear a credit card as a company ID badge?

It's a corporate card with access to both company and my personal funds. It has a picture but is not microchipped. This is the company ID as well. They require it to be worn visible on site. I'm getting ready to pay a year's worth of taxes so that's a pretty good amount of money on the card.

Two things.

1. I suggest you ask the lawyer why he is requesting this information. Perhaps he needs it for the work to be done. Perhaps he wants that information so that if you and your bf hire him and then don't pay having this information will make it easier to collect a judgment...

If someone falsely accuses you of stealing you can deny the accusation. Without more facts, I'm not sure what to tell you. I don't know if there are criminal charges against you, whether any harm has resulted from the false accusation, or what you want to do.
