My rental property (Multifamily) was targeted in a shooting. No one was injured but the neighbors sent an anonymous letter to sue (unless I take action) for bringing their home value down / placing “annoying tenants”. Tenants were placed by my property manager. Am I liable? I have not been contacted by authorities about the incident but am working to get as much information as I can.

Any advice on how to proceed is appreciated. Don’t know who the target was, consider eviction moratorium (NY)

Hi everyone !

I am trying to relocate in London, as a Legal Counsel in Privacy.

The opportunities there seems more interesting in terms of missions and financially. I had interviews for companies but one obstacle keeps coming up: I am not a qualified lawyer because is it not necessary to be one when you’re an in house in France.

I do have 2,5 years of experience as a Legal Counsel in Privacy and strong referrals.

Do you maybe have any tips to help me :) ?

Many thanks!

How to deal with change? 1 year out of college and living with 3 of my best friends, just talked about living together for next year but they are all moving to new cities. Another friend is moving to my city so I’ll be living with them but I can’t help but feel a little lonely/like a huge stage of my life is over. Any tips for dealing with this change? I guess I also feel a little guilty because I’m pretty covid conservative so I’ve turned down social outings this past year because of that.
