1. Sign on bonus not paid!
  
  And no, if you refuse to work until you get your sign-on bonus (even if you have an actual written contract with your employer that specifically states that you will be paid X amount if you start work on Y date), and you get fired, you probably won't be entitled to UI benefits.

3. False information sent to title insurance underwriter, who sues us
  
  OP seems to think that a law firm is suing him. (Not a title insurance company, but a law firm.) That the title insurance company received some false information and sent it on to a law firm who subsequently - on a whim, it would appear - decided to sue OP. OP is now suing the person who...

4. Sue or charges?
  
  If you could provide more details about the harassment, character defamation, stalking and slandering that you've been experiencing, we could probably give you better information about what you might consider doing about it.

8. Landlord does not want to give me keys
  
  I used to live at the very back (so no street access) of a small six-unit loft building in Toronto. The front door had a keypad and a Medeco lock. Stupidly, I kept my Medeco key at home - 'cause hey! There's a keypad! One freezing (and dark!) evening I returned home from work during a power...

10. Can I pay my employee directly?
  
  If you have your own payroll person and can pay your employee directly + deduct (and pay on) all federal and state withholdings etc. then you don't need a third party to do this for you.

11. California AB-5 law for independent contractors went into effect Jan 1
  
  Back to your original question OP - if you want to comply with the law and your subcontractor doesn't, you have no choice but to fire him. If you don't want to comply with the law, then keep using him the way you always have, and suffer the consequences. (And please note, disagreeing with the...

12. Wrongful Termination - Manager Falsified Work Evaluation to lay me off
  
  So you're blaming us for the law? That because we provide you with accurate information about the law, that must mean we support the law as it stands? Wut? Personally, I believe US employment law is way too employer-friendly. I believe that it should be changed to better protect American...

13. Wrongful Termination - Manager Falsified Work Evaluation to lay me off
  
  Well, I personally wouldn't put it quite that way myself, but yes, essentially that's how employment law works in the US. If you don't like that, it's perhaps time to speak to your Congressperson about how to change the law.

  They are not legally required to provide severance pay under any circumstances. (Unless of course you have a contract or CBA that states otherwise.) Regarding your age, if you believe that you have enough evidence to support an age discrimination case, i.e., that they fired you specifically...

  Unless you have an employment contract or CBA which specifically states that your employer may not terminate your employment for any reason except poor performance, a wrongful termination as defined by law has not taken place. In almost all 50 states, employers are legally free to terminate...
