QUESTIONS

  • My girlfriend has lived with me in my house for 2 years. We recently broke up and she refuses to leave my house. Her name is not in my mortgage and she pays no bills and none of the bills in her name. Can I throw her out ?
  • My water heater broke and it took me about 2 hours to even reach my landlord. After having no emergency fire company come out she finally sent someone . It is a Thursday and I do not have any source of hot water and I am being told it won't be fixed until Monday which is 5 days without hot running water. Is this legal in Arizona ?
  • When my 3 year old daughter was born her father refused to sign the birth certificate, he requested a paternity test be done through the state, after paternity was established they then established child support , my question is because he has not filled out any forms asking to amend her birth certificate or acknowledge paternity does he still have rights? I'm getting married and would like to have my new husband adopt her (i know her bio father will no longer be responsible for child support) and everything was done through DES.
  • My 17 year old son's girlfriend is pregnant with is child. She just moved to Ohio to stay with her parents. The baby is due in November 2011. Can we file a paternity request before the baby is born? Also if she wants to give the baby up for adoption doesn't my son have to agree and sign?
