QUESTIONS

  • without a pre-nup is money in retirement funds community propery? what about gains on those funds? I need some legal advise and don't know where to go.
  • I have been married for almost 11 years with 5 children ages 7 and under. I have been a stay at home mother for almost 8 years, have been attending school full time at home for the past 3 years and have plans to continue until I've reached my doctorate, which will take approx another 5 years. I found out my husband is being unfaithful and I want a separation but he won't agree to one, so I'd like a divorce. Is there a way I can get him to leave our home we own while I'm dealing with finding an attorney and filing? He won't be happy/nice if he knows. He won't let me let me leave with the kids.
  • I am a single adult with out children, no income or medical insurance, when can i apply for accchs?

  • I am writng to gain a better understanding of the community property law in Arizona. What does this law mean? My parents have property in Yuma and due to financial difficulty my sister & I are talking about purchasing the property from the to have more income at thier disposal. If we purchase this land together what does the community property law mean to us?
  • My grandson is 5 and has spent most of his life in my custody. He states he hates going home because there isn't any food or the electricity is turned off. Mom has since had 3 other children, and the father is threatening to take them. My concern is he is being neglected. She can't keep a home, she's very transient, can't keep a job, and has a house of women who berate and verbally abuse my grandson. With me, he has consistency and structure. Every now and then mom wants him back, but it's only briefly. Is there any way for me to get guardianship I worry so much for him?
  • who is required to pay the property taxes on a mobile home in a mobile home park? Is it the landlord's responsibility since he is the owner of the park, or the homeowner's responsibility?
  • I am disabled and receiving food stamps (SNAP). I submitted a medical expense list with receipts. DES stated that they do not count dental or vision expenses (eye exams, eyeglasses, contact lenses, dental exams, cleanings, fillings, crowns, root canals) or prescription medications which are not paid for every month. They did not address the cost of medical transportation (gas to get to medical appointments). I believe that these expenses should be counted as they are out of pocket medical expenses, and the total should be divided by the number of months in the eligibility period. Help!
