QUESTIONS

  • I'm getting a insurance settlement and get food stamps. must I disclose this?
  • Hello my nephews and nieces are in dcs custody they won’t transfer the case over to California for the grandmother they are saying it can take up to 6 months is there a way she can file for temporary custody to get them out of dcs care in Arizona and placed with the paternal grandmother in California ?
  • My daughter is 16 years old & is mentally handicapped. I want to get guardianship. What do I need to do first?
  • I'm still legally married to my husband even though we haven't lived together or been in a relationship for over 3 years. Recently my boyfriend and I had a child and we want his information legally on our son's birth certificate. My husband is refusing to sign the waiver of paternity. What form(s) do I need to file with the court to establish paternity without his involvement?
  • My son is supposed to receive money when he is 18 from my brothers passing. Is there a way I can make it that he doesn't get it till he turns 25 and has a high school diploma due to him not being mature and dropping out of school and just relying on this money?
  • I currently live out of state with my children. My ex's lawyer and him have manipulated the truth and twisted things around to make things go in his favor knowing I would not be able to afford the legal counsel to continue the fight. Can I somehow stop him from using that lawyer in the future? How can I find a lawyer now that my family and I are tapped out and we are still paying legal fees? We still have several issues and I would like a mediator/lawyer to correct things however, I do not know where to start now that we are in another state and I can't afford legal counsel. What do I do?
  • My ex husband currently has temporary custody of our three kids. The order was granted for a year. That year has past already and since then I have made great progress in life. It was my decision to give their father the kids because after he abandoned me and the kids, I was having a difficult time trying to support myself and my kids. Throughout our 13yr marriage I was a stay at home mother as he requested, so being as such, gaining stability did not come easy. Now that I have stability he makes it hard to be active in our kids lives. How do I regain rights to my kids?
  • How can I request a paternity test for a child I have been ordered to pay support on? Unfortunately I did not seek legal counsel when I received the initial papers and wrote my response stating I did not believe I was the father. I did not pay the filing fee of $231 so they denied my statement. Where do I go from here? I live out of state.
  • What is the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)?
