If the employee signed an at-will agreement, does that mean I can let them go without explanation? The reason is bc they are causing dissent among staff but there is no real way to prove it.

He needs help and he has kidney failure plus seizures. He needs someone help. And how can I get power of attorney with out his signature
Hello!
I'm sorry to hear about your son's situation. Rather than a power of attorney, it sounds like you need a guardianship over your son. From your question, I take it that your son is not a minor.
The Oklahoma Bar Association has some helpful information about... Read more »
Client added work on and agreed to price but when I gave them a bill for the added services they suddenly decided they weren’t happy with work anymore and wanted full refund. I offered to come out and look at it but they didn’t want me to try to make anything right. They just want money back.... Read more »
You should seek the advice of an attorney. The answer is too fact intensive to give any sort of answer. Depending on the dollar mount you might consider mediation to litigation. Good luck.
I live in Oklahoma county, oklahoma. I was reading about your personal representative deed. my estranged sister sold my late mothers house without my knowledge or acceptance. I looked up the deed online and it lists a personal representative deed. how is this possible that she was able to sell my... Read more »
Well first, the house is sold and there is nothing to do about that assuming it was sold to someone not related. As far as your portion of the sale/estate, this would have all been completed during the probate procedure. If your sister did not fulfill her legal obligation then you 'may or... Read more »
Do I have any legitimate claim if it had been the understanding by all parties ? Sister has POA and mother is alive and we’re both aware of his wishes.but denying my receipt of the asset. What recourse do I have .
In a very vague answer, anything that is not specified in the will goes to the estate for distribution. If the RV is not listed anywhere, then the RV would pass to your mother as the surviving spouse due to it being marital property. There are always exceptions to the general rules and you should...

Especially when the place is falling apart
The short answer is that if the current tenant has no lease then there would be nothing to stop the church from raising the rent. This is a matter of contract law, so if the church wants to enter into a contract for lease at a higher monthly rent, they surely can do so. However, to be sure you... Read more »

An Oklahoma attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for four weeks. I hope your daughter is okay. As a general matter, drivers under 18 can receive tickets, and a ticket not being signed by recipient doesn't generally serve to diminish its legal effect. If you haven't... Read more »
I have text messages where he stated we would work out rent after the water and plumbing was fixed. Now he is refusing to move forward fixing problems till I pay two months rent that was not our agreement what grounds do I have to stand on?
Unless you have a written lease agreement the "grounds you have to stand on" are commonly called quicksand. In the absence of a written lease, your landlord can evict you at any time unless you continue to pay rent; withholding rent is a sure-fire way to get evicted.

My fully paid for home in Moore was destroyed by a tornado 10 days after we married. The proceeds from that ($250,000) were invested in the husband’s property. Can I get any of that property back?
The first question is a hypothetical, which I can't answer since I don't know what the law will in May of 2023. The second question is that if the original home that was destroyed had your name on the deed, or was by financial equity of some kind marital property then you have a pretty... Read more »
The mileage reported at 101989. How is it 11 days later the miles are reported to dmv at 101802? Seems fishy to me.
Please help seems like possible rolled back mileage.
This is not a legal question; nor is it evidence of odometer tampering. It is a mistake.
