defammation of character
hired for one job, told to perform another, no job description. Expressed numerous times to administrative staff that assistance was needed to achieve quality healthcare deliverence to nursing home residents, was told ”bottom line” was priority. Poor decisions made to achieve financial improvement with negative outcome occurring to patient care. State healthcare inspection identifies quality of care deficiencies, corporate administrative staff force my resignation. I have paper trail of my requests for assistance, and also have directive from CEO that if financial improvement is not accomplished, termination can occur.

Do I Need Both Parents Consent to their Child’s Settlement
Hello, I am an attorney and obtained a small settlement for a minor and her parent from a personal injury claim. The minor’s parents are divorced but share joint legal custody. Both parents are estranged and do NOT have a good relationship w/ eachother. The other parent is unaware of the claim. Before sending the settlement release form the insurance company wants to know if my client is the sole legal guardian of the minor, if not then both parents signature would be needed. Is there a way around this as my client does not want to inform the the other parent as the other parent will likely make things difficult? I do not want to make a misrepresentation. What if I tell the adjuster about the animosity b/w the two and how involving the other parent would impede settlement, and that my client would sign a hold harmless agreement should the other make a claim in the future (very unlikely). Is there a way to keep the other party out of this and not jeopardize my license?
