Those are very different fields. I suggest you speak with your career counselor. If you do not have one, reach out to local lawyers or the local lawyer bar association to see if they have mentor programs for highschool students. You can do the same for the field of correctional officer.... Read more »

It depends on the context of how the name was used. If it was done intentionally and with the aim of deceiving the other side in a matter, it could be considered fraud. It could further depend if the use was defined by civil statute or criminal code. This was not presented as a question, but if you... Read more »
This is a concisely phrased question, but the answer could go on for pages. There are so many things that can do this. An important factor would be a lack of good evidence.

The trailer was going to be disposed of if I didn't take it and I've done major repairs to it to make it livable. Can they just take it back? It's my residence now, where do I stand with this.
Your position should be that you own that trailer now because you did what they asked you to do, made it your home, fixed it up, and now it is yours. This is one area in which possession is 9/10 of the law. You are in possession, so stay in possession.

We are having a baby in June and he will be moving in March. I am under the impression from what the lawyer said that my boyfriend will not have any rights to my house as long as I don't add him to title or we don't get married. Technically he will be renting from me (without a lease... Read more »
Congratulations on having a baby in June.
Your boyfriend will not have rights in the house just because he pays some bills, so long as you don't agree to give him an interest in the house and it is clear that he is a tenant. I've seen this get ugly when people aren't... Read more »
