Just wondering what legal recourse we may have, if any...
Brief Context:
There is more, of course, but we wondered if ya'll might be able to provide some counsel/direction should we need to move in the legal direction.
Thanks

Just wondering what legal recourse we may have, if any...
Brief Context:
*Wife and I caring for family farm and widowed, elderly mother-in-law w/Alzheimer's (owner of farm)
*Divorced brother-in-law (BIL) recently returned to farm (w/o asking us) after decades living in another state (owned and sold two previous houses)
*BIL
*Receives meager SS payments, but broke and in debt
*Living in mother's basement b/c can't afford to live elsewhere
*Uses address for mail, etc.
*Pays no rent (Does some work--mows lawn in summer)
*Uses vehicles w/o permission
*Charges gasoline for personal use to farm account
*Creates messes/extra work for us; often "undoes" work we have already accomplished in caring for mother-in-law
*Volatile when confronted
We thought he was vising for the summer, and just recently discovered he intends to stay. We have talked with him several times unofficially and at least one time officially ("family meeting"). He gave verbal lip-service to our requests, but we don't see any change. While we would like to see him step up and take responsibility, we're skeptical he will.There is more, of course, but we wondered if ya'll might be able to provide some counsel/direction should we need to move in the legal direction.
