3 weeks of stalls and setbacks, then abruptly tells us to go away. I have a signed contract but they will not fulfill terms and now are trying to force me to sign a termination release. Is this legal.....(never mind unethical)
It's not illegal in the sense that no crime has been committed. Whether or or not it breaches your contract depends on what the contract says about termination. You might have a claim for specific performance or breach of contract. You might not.

After a year long investigation in which we gave them everything they asked for.... They denied the claim.
If the claim was for personal injuries (like uninsured motorist), many attorneys will take such a case on contingency.

Injury that happened at a job not related to my company. At first the claim was denied and now they are settling with the person. This is ridiculous and I was wondering if I can sue state fund for settling without my consent or knowledge
