QUESTIONS

  • What happens if my husband or spouse refuses to sign the divorce papers?
  • Can two women sign the birth certificate in the state of Arizona if yes do they have to be married?
  • How do I file for abandonment on my daughters father when he is no where to be found?
  • Can groom take the bride's last name?
  • I LIVE IN SPOKANE AND MY PARENTS, WHO HAVE GAURDIANSHIP OF MY 9 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER, LIVE IN TUCSON AZ. I WOULD LIKE TO FILE THE REVOCATION OF GAURDIANSHIP BUT I HAVE NO MONEY AND CAN NOT GO TO ARIZONA FOR COURT. MY PARENTS HAVE HAD MY DAUGHTER FOR TWO YEARS AND I AM READY FOR HER TO COME BACK HOME TO ME......WHAT DO I DO
  • My mother owns the property. I rent from her. She is allowing me to sublet rooms. What kind of document do I need to have power to manage? To make contracts and to evict?
  • Under what legal authority does the father (never married) of my 6 year old, who has been deemed unsuitable for joint custody & has yet been able to abide by basic court appointed supervised visitation guidelines, have to continually bring me to court with neglectful parenting allegations, which are always dropped &, coincidentally, decided that he is the perpetrator in each case? Furthermore, as victim to his court declared domestic abuse (physical/metal), how is it that I am being required to be in contact with the perpetrating father, or at risk of losing my son due to parental alienation?
  • A few days before I turned 18, my adopted family of 4 years kicked me out and dropped me off at my birth mothers house. (Who is not capable of taking care of me) they didn't even give me a quarter of my belongings and I also didn't receive any of my documents (I.e birth certificate, social security card, etc) this has caused me many problems in the year since dealing with trying to get a car, registering for college and other things. In order to get new documents, I need to have other documents and I have none. Is there something I can legally do?
  • My son has an 18 year old daughter but is not listed on the birth certificate. He volunteered to pay child support and longer does as his daughter is over 18. His daughter now wants to have his name on the birth certificate to claim her Native American heritage. Both are in agreement. What is the court process as I was told there isn't a form and to contact legal services. Thank you.
  • I have submitted notice on 7/28/17 that we would be non-renewing our lease and it would end, as stated in our lease, on 9/12/17. This provided excess of 30 days notice as required. They did not respond until today, 8/7/17. When we moved in, our rent for Sept '16 (9/13 - 9/30) was prorated. In our notice, I stated we would be paying the pro-rated amount of our rent due on 9/1 for the 12 days we will be occupying the apartment. The management let us know that our lease will end on 9/12, but we are responsible for the entire month of Sept. rent. I am unsure. I have communicated with them by e-mail because I wanted to document it.
