Q. Is it legal for an employer to fire a worker for catching covid and potentially exposing people on accident?

22 April 2021

A: I am sorry to hear about this situation. It is impossible to answer without more details. Without knowing all the details, At-will employment means an employer can fire a person at any time for any reason except an illegal one. There are numerous conflicting policies/laws at play, including protections for missing work because of Covid. I would tell her to seek out counsel from a local employment attorney, if for nothing else but a free consultation.

Q. If I am emancipated at 17 and only have a permit, can I take my drivers test?

21 April 2021

A: As long as you meet the requirements to obtain a driver's license, it should not be a problem.

Q. in the state of michigan . when a parent dies without a will and his wife is incompitent . what are the childs rights

20 April 2021

A: When people talk about others being incapable of making decisions, they can be referring to a huge range of scenarios. If she is deemed so by a doctor or a court the above scenario is possible. These situations can turn quickly, you should seek a qualified estate planning/elder care attorney. The issues often go together.
