Last week I tripped over some weights at the gym that had been left randomly on the floor instead of being put back on the rack. I crashed down onto them, knocking out several front teeth and breaking my nose and my elbow.

Years ago, I agreed to be executor of a friend’s Will, but as I’ve got older I’ve started worrying about the amount of work it will involve and whether I am up to it. Unfortunately, I can’t ask my friend to find someone younger to take on the job as he is now in a care home with Alzheimer’s. What should I do?

Domestic abuse is a term commonly associated with ‘battered wives’, but in a Crime Survey conducted in 2020, the Office for National Statistics established that 1 in 50 people aged 75+ in England and Wales had been subjected to domestic abuse in the previous twelve months.

I have a couple of young mums working for me who recently have been asking for more and more time off last minute, due to childcare problems. The problems seem mainly caused by nursery staff who cannot get to work because of the snow, rail strikes, or else nurseries do not have enough staff to operate fully......

My aunt was incapacitated for several years before her death. With no children or partner, my parents looked after her and had power of attorney over her affairs and my father was executor of her Will.... As I believe my parents syphoned off her assets can I contest the Will?

My daughter’s nursery school has closed a few times this year because of staff shortages..... last time the nursery closed I had no holiday left and my boss refused to pay me for the hours I had off, even though I managed to get care cover and go into work later. He says if this keeps happening, he will have to let me go. Can he really do this?

I own a property that was let out through a property management company for several years.... Now we have received a solicitor’s letter telling us that the former tenant is suing us for injury caused by a fall down the stairs due to a frayed carpet....What should I do?

I am due to go on maternity leave in a couple of months and I keep asking my employer what will happen about pension contributions whilst I am off, but he just answers my question with another question about whether I do/don’t trust him to sort it. To be frank I don’t think he knows what will happen. It’s only a small business and outside his family there is only one other employee and me. Can you explain what should happen, please?

We are a small family business but are planning to take on two, or maybe three workers to assist us over the next few months. As there has only ever been my wife and two daughters working in the business until now it has all been very casual. Will we need to create a formal health & safety policy when we take on new people?

I have worked in the agricultural industry for many years. My employer supplies ear protectors but has never supplied masks or provided training about the dangers of inhaling dust.....
