QUESTIONS

  • We have found black toxic mold in the house we are renting and we just gor the report back from the inspection expert and it has confirmed the mold to be highly toxic. We are afraid that once we tell the landlord he will evict us. What are our rights? We have asked the landlord to fix things in the past and his answer was I will let you out of the lease instead of fixing the problems.We really could use some legal advice.Thank you.
  • My husband and I have been living apart for over a year. He left when I was 3 months pregnant. Right now we are going through a divorce. He is not paying child support. Will the court order that he pays back child support? He also has not pais medical bills resulting from birth. paid some child support, than stopped.
  • I signed a lease to a new place which I just got the keys to, I walk in expecting it had been properly cleaned, painted, and repaired as I had viewed it before completion. Now I get told that it was stated as "move in quality and we are not entirely repainting" The walls are dirty, scratched and marred, food reminance, and spakle marks everywhere to be seen. Other repairs werent done correctly either, what can I do here if they refuse to do nothing? At this point I want out of the agreement I havent moved in but I have paid deposit rent and signed the lease. Can I legally get out of this?
  • We just received a notice of auction for a property we are renting. Per this letter, the landlord was behind on the mortgage prior to us signing the lease, which we were not aware of. He has no intention of keeping the house and we have another 6 months to our lease. Do we have any rights to with hold rent considering he intentionally scammed us into renting when he had no intentions of using our money to pay the rent and was already behind?
  • My wife and I weren't married when our first two children were born, shortly after the second we married now we are divorcing my name is on the birth certificates and they carry my last name she isn't letting me have them can u tell me how much rights I have to visitation
  • I was convicted of a non dangerous sex offense back in 1984. Was a level 1 till I got convicted of failure to register in 2001. That changed my level 2. I dont understand, since the original crime was non dangerous and the second felony was a technical crime, that now I am dangerous. Is there any hope for any of the non-dangerous sex offenders getting off the registery? This would open time and money to monitor the actual dangerous sex offenders.
  • I filed unemployment due to covid19 and was denied for an overpayment Back in 2014 that I was unaware of. Is there anything I can do to get my benefits due to pandemic?
  • What is the homestead exemption and how it protect home owners?
  • Can I file for bankruptcy?
  • I am renting a 3 bedroom home and i' am having a lot of problems in the home and need repairs done that the agency has not accomplished anything. They sent people out to fix it and nothing has been done i have four small kids in my house and a huge leak in my haul and roof about to cave in. anytime i try to tell them something about it they give me the run around and an attitude what can i do?
