QUESTIONS

  • I am the primary custodial parent of my daughter, have finished nursing school, and applying for jobs. I have a job in Colorado starting in September and it means relocating with my daughter. I do not want to keep her from her father, but I have no income other child support and want to earn my living. I do not want to continue to use state health care, nor food stamps. I have notified him of the move with a registered letter. What is my next and best course of action?
  • Bio daughter lived with a boyfriend. Daughter has 4 children, 3 are from this relationship. CPS got involved due to domestic violence. Daughter failed to comply with CPS and father got all the chn including the child that is not of this relationship.

  • CAN CHILD SUPPORT TAKE THE MONEY I RECEIVE FROM A LAW SUIT
  •  6 days ago my daughter was removed from my care, no complaint of abuse or neglect of any kind was made. She was removed from my care due to the fact that I have a diagnosis of PTSD. Once I was diagnose with that I enrolled in counseling. I have been doing that for 7 months now every week. My psychiatrist and therapist both state that I am not a danger to myself or to my child however CPS claims that she cant in my custody. No legal action has been taken, nor have their been any court orders, but they claim that I can only be with her under supervision and cannot spend the night with her.
  • what is the fine or the jail time if you have convected of assult intentional,knowing-phys injery
  • I signed a lease for a house and the management company is acting very irresponsible and lackadaisical. I have not put any money down on the house because I was told that I would be set up in the computer to pay. My question is can I legally get out of this lease? It is due to start July 1. I need a management company that is going to be just as responsible as I am required to be and I am getting really bad feelings about this company. Thanks for your help! :) Kristin
  • We had flooding from recent storm. Walls got wet, carpet got wet, and light fixture not working. Landlord said let dry out and things will be fine. No repairs. Only cut open wall to worst leak and put a dryer in there. No one has come back. That 9/8/14. Today is 9/10/14. Should we give 5 or 10 day notice to fix? It now smells moldy in here, and I have to cook dinner in semi dark. Already frustrated because we have roaches! I have allergies and don't want to be exposed to them or to mold.
  • I got married in the US, but my spouse is a Korean citizen and never lived here, just visited. He went back to korea and got a divorce over there (mutual). Now he is legally divorced thru korean court and I have the official notarized court documents. Is it automatically accepted here in the USA? I am trying to get married again to someone else and want to make sure we are allowed to now.
  • I live in an apartment complex. On July 26th, 2014, there was a storm and a tree planted on the premises fell onto my car. The apartment complex removed it two days later. They claim it was an "act of God", and won't cover the repairs for the damages to my vehicle. My question is this: Would this fall under the provisions in the Arizona Residential Landlord and Tenant Act, section 33-1324, Landlord to maintain fit premises?
  • Is it lawful to lease an apt and just use for storage, literally like a storage unit,and not dwell in the unit
