3. Inheritance problem for my daughter
  
  You need to talk to an lawyer who does estate plans. Also: You should consider divorcing your estranged wife. You neglected to mention the name of your state. This is important and laws on estates vary by state. Some states will not allow you to disinherit your wife - that is why your...

4. Small Claims Court Questions -- Recover Damages from Rear End Collision
  
  Your daughter needs to bang the gong with HER insurance company. UPS didn't get to be a huge mega corporation by paying easy. The insurer doesn't wan to litigate. "basically abandoned" means she needs to start writing certified letters to her insurer.

5. landlord tenant disputes personal property
  
  You should have evicted her when she stopped paying rent. You can evict someone in jail. You should have insisted her boyfriend arrange storage at his expense. That's advice which would require a time machine... so moving on: You have no basis to withhold her property and no basis to charge...

6. Landlord refuses to fix the heat
  
  You don't need to buy a house to move. The past does not determine the future. Your landlord is obligated to fix the heating system.

7. Car Totaled by Tow Truck While in for Service at Dealership
  
  They are now walking away from a lease consequence free, plus getting 10 grand. That's a lot better than having been stuck buying a vehicle with a history of premature failure (junker) of an expensive nature no less. And the privilege of paying full retail to do so.

9. "Unsafe speed" ticket following single vehicle accident
  
  Something is wrong with your car - the tires, or steering or suspension, maybe even the differential or a combination of problems to lose traction and wreck at 15 to 20 mph on a curve posted at 45 - even in the rain. That's not normal, proper, handling performance. Even in a big rear wheel...

10. "Unsafe speed" ticket following single vehicle accident
  
  That's not lost on me, I simply wonder why the op is being coy about the actual speeds involved. My guess is that the op was traveling quite a bit over 1 mph. ;)

11. "Unsafe speed" ticket following single vehicle accident
  
  You never mention the posted speed limit, if there is a caution speed sign for the curve and the actual speed you were traveling as you entered and progressed through the curve. Rear wheel drive actually confers an advantage in cornering because of torque.

12. Vehicle abandonment
  
  There is nothing precluding you from hiring someone with a strong back to set it outside or someone with a little know how to reattach the wheel and roll it outside.

  You are unlikely to succeed in this request under any circumstances without the assistance of counsel. You mention that you have no violation or issues... but do you have "clear and convincing evidence that his or her risk of repeat offense and threat to public safety is such that registration...
