  • I got divorced last year in NV. I received full physical custody of my children. We have lived in Yuma since May 2019, recently they went to visit her for spring break in NV. I am in the military and with the COVID-19 restrictions its hard for me to get them. who has jurisdiction over y children state wise? if she wanted to file for custody how would she do it?
  • I rent a single family home in Tucson Arizona and over the years the roof has sustained significant water damage due to negligence and poor construct. We recently received heavy rainfall and the roof leaked, causing the ceiling to collapse into the home. Landlord sent two roofing companies to inspect the roof, both said it’s unsafe but did not use the word uninhabitable so therefore landlord will not break lease. He has contracted for roof replacement but that means we are still in the home with various cracks through out the ceiling. Can I get my own evaluation done and get out of this lease?
  • how can i find out if the lien has been perfected on my vehicle title ?
  • Are landlords allowed to park across the street and watch a unit at 2:30am ? only to later use what he or she saw as evidence in an informal hearing to terminate a tenant?
  • I have been working part-time; my employer has offered to make my position full-time. Is there a ceiling amount I can make before Social Security starts penalizing, i.e., taking $1 out of every $3 that I make? Thank you. 
  • What are, the, laws on toddler(2 ) year old noise, in their own home?
  • I leased my house to a couple with a teenage daughter. It has been month to month after the first year. The wife signed the lease in her name only and then the couple divorced. She moved out and the ex-husband stayed with his daughter in the house. Is the ex-husband still liable for the provisions of the lease his ex-wife signed? Or is the ex-wife responsible? Thank you.
  • A large cactus in the backyard fell on September 1st; two days later the landlord acknowledged the fallen cactus. It is now October 13th and no one has come by for an estimate to remove it. Our son cannot go outside because he just wants to touch it. Do we hire someone to remove it and take it out of the rent? They also never reimbursed us for the exterminators who camea few times when we first moved in. They have never acknowledged, and denied the issue of the bugs. This had been an ongoing issue with them.
