My brother filed bankruptcy and they were going to take all three of his methods of transportation. His regular transportation truck, old truck that barely runs and motorcycle. The old truck is sentimental value, the motorcycle he knew it would have to go, but the question is about the other...

My brother owns a home that is our family gathering place when we all come in from out of town. He's going through financial difficulties and is considering bankruptcy.

I received an employment verification and it contains the question "Was this person's salary attached?" Would this be referring to child support?

An update on my brother's case.

Part of his application asks him what he...

What happens with a worker's comp claim if the employee is fired or quits (nothing related to the injury)

The short story is my brother recently had a stroke and it seems probable that his employer denied his rights under FMLA and ADA. They also lied on his termination form to the state that he quit, when he went in to discuss his return to work. Nice folks. My question is, if he is unable to...

The spouse of one of my employee's inquired about COBRA after giving her notice. They told her that she would not qualify because she is leaving voluntarily. She works for a school. Ever heard of such?

What affect does it have on an employees FMLA rights and responsibilities if they are not given FMLA paperwork. Information is in the handbook and notices are posted on the bulletin board. Specifically, Q1 if they have been out more than 12 weeks is their time up? Q2. Are we okay to cancel...

Getting ready for the changes to come, when looking at the minimum "salary" requirements for someone who is exempt, is anything else taken in to consideration, or is it strictly salary. More specifically if a person is furnished a company auto, could the taxable value be considered as part of...

An employee is out on Worker's Comp, there is no paycheck to deduct the employee's portion of medical. Do we have to maintain the medical and try to recoup when he returns?

DH was told when he was hired that medical would kick in after 30 days. He inquired after his 30 days and was told, well you're part-time so you don't get insurance until after 1 year. Other than his 1st partial week he has worked over 40 hrs every week so I don't know how they're calling it...

If someone is out on FMLA and is diagnosed with terminal cancer, at what point do you consider the employee terminated? Is it enough to be notified by a family member that the employee is not coming back? Or do we need to hear it from the employee? Or do we need something from their doctor?

The document says I have to attest to coverage. My agent says "the intent" is that coverage is offered. I have one person who has family medical, but does not have family dental. I don't want to attest incorrectly.
