Is it illegal for someone to post how much money I received on Facebook?

Answered 4 years and 3 months ago by Andrew M. Jaffe (Unclaimed Profile)   |   1 Answer
You may want to consider hiring a lawyer to send a Cease-and-Desist letter.  While a cease-and-desist letter has little legal impact, the lawyer's letterhead gets the recipient’s attention.   This is a relatively inexpensive way to put the person on notice that you are not going to let these actions continue and that you are serious about pursuing your legal remedies.  It also tells the person that they could get in legal hot water which will cost them a lot of legal fees if nothing else.  This will often convince them to stop their evil ways.   You will want to discuss your situation with a lawyer in more detail. Many lawyers offer a free phone consultation.  ... Read More

Can my ex wife post pictures of our son on her business social media page without my consent when I have full custody?

Answered 4 years and 5 months ago by Andrew M. Jaffe (Unclaimed Profile)   |   1 Answer
This question brings up many issues: 1. Copyright - who owns the right to use the pictures?  Generally, the photographer owns the copyright to a picture.  If the picture was taken from your social media then a DMCA take down notice should be effective. 2. What is the picture being used for - Your son has a right of personal publicity when it comes to someone using his picture for commercial purposes. 3. How old is your son? - Sometimes age can be a factor. Finally, you may want to consider hiring a lawyer to send a Cease-and-Desist letter.  While a cease-and-desist letter has little legal impact, the lawyer's letterhead gets the recipient’s attention.   This is a relatively inexpensive way to put the person on notice that you are not going to let these actions continue and that you are serious about pursuing your legal remedies.  It also tells the person that they could get in legal hot water which will cost them a lot of legal fees if nothing else.  This will often convince them to stop their evil ways....

Should I be compensated or ask for a contract.

Answered 4 years and 7 months ago by Andrew M. Jaffe (Unclaimed Profile)   |   1 Answer
It seems to me that you need to have a contract with your friend.  You may wish to start an LLC for your business and your status could be confirmed in the Operating Agreement.   You can certainly free hire a lawyer to negotiate for you, or work together with your friend.
