A Texas attorney could advise best here, but your question remains open for two weeks. As a GENERAL matter in most any jurisdiction, the answer is generally yes. Such facilities, as a policy, do not suspend accrual of storage fees on Saturdays and Sundays. A Texas attorney could advise more... Read more »
A Texas attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for five weeks. Until you are able to arrange a consult with an attorney who handles such matters, you might be able to research some of the free resources of the USPS, in terms of their conditions and limitations for various solid and...

Where is the artist?
You ask a question that needs more detail.
Are you going to pay hourly? piece work? project work? or whatever.

We did not sign an agreement. The CPA did not mention any fees until after we got the loan & he sent an invoice for $9,000!
Did you sign an agreement for that fee?
I can figure out recipes (may be or may not be true) of manufactured food products by using publicly available ingredients lists and my algorithms. I want to post them on my website and then rate products and review them - whether I find them healthy, safe, etc based on their ingredients amounts... Read more »
Reviews of a product have particular protections, but understand that some manufacturers are more litigious than others. If your algorithm is incorrect, and results in a misrepresentation of their product, they may try to pursue legal action.
We did not realize there was a patent on this product and we started selling it on amazon but quickly got shut down. We are wondering if there is anyway we would be allowed to sell this product
You would need to contact the owner of the patent to see if they would license you to make such sales. However, before doing so, I recommend that you consult an attorney familiar with the kinds of businesses which deal in such a product so you can get a read as to whether a licensing opportunity...

Certain foods have its ingredients listed in a specific order. Based on that I created an algorithm that can calculate ingredients percentage in a formula (that may or may not be different from the manufacturer’s). Can I post my calculations on my website (of course I will mention that these are... Read more »
The question you pose could cover several areas of intellectual property. For example, a trade secret is not violated if you figure it out without violating a legal obligation to keep the secret. I assume you have no contract of non-disclosure with the manufacturer. If you can figure out the... Read more »
A client who owed me money for services already rendered apparently filed bankruptcy. This client claimed to their trustee that post filing, they had paid me for the services rendered. Subsequently, a suit was filed against my business for the funds. The problem is, these funds were never paid... Read more »
Burden of proof is on the claimant. He has to prove he paid you. He needs proof and his word won’t do.
I tried to escalate the question with my bank and recieved no response. I believe they are unlawfully applying rules to prevent small buisnesses from applying for the loan. A manager friend at Bank of America informed me there should be no minimum limit. I also called another bank down the street... Read more »
All banks are different; and many of the larger banks will not fool around with tiny business loans. Why? Because it costs them the same amount of money to do all the paperwork for tiny loans as it does for larger loans. Keep calling, primarily to the smaller banks in your area.
Puffington is the trademark, Ernest nornie(one of the owners) has gone astray and moved and is trying to take the whole business... how do we counter that?
I am not licensed in Texas and can't give legal advice on the non-federal law portion of the question. However, regarding the trademark, it depends on who is the registered owner and what the operating agreement for your business says. If the company owns the mark, instead of a particular...

I work for a company called "Painted Tree". It became clear to me after my first day that they do not give you a lunch break, or any breaks at all (aside from the manager telling me when i started that I can grab a water or a piece of candy if i need it). What's really difficult is... Read more »
It depends on the specific situation, including the city where the work is being performed.
I asked this question about 5 days ago, but got no answer. I came up with a slogan for my dads company, and even bought the web domain for it, but later found out another organization had been using it first, by sheer coincidence. They don't have it trademarked from what I can tell, so can I... Read more »
Trademark rights are based on use and a person does not have to register their mark with the USPTO to have common law rights in the mark. Because of that, the other organization's use may be paramount to yours in the jurisdiction where they have been using it even though you won the domain... Read more »

Non-profits don't have owners. They a board of directors and officers. When you applied for the EIN you listed yourself as a responsible party that can be changed by filing a form 8822-B or by filing Form 990.
You can't establish a non-profit under your SSN so you may have an... Read more »
