QUESTIONS

  • When making a will what advantages are there to drafting a single verses joint will?
  • We are senior citizens. A bank is offering us a home loan that we assumed was fixed interest-the rate dropped a fraction, even-then I happened to notice an unfamiliar phrase with a tiny checked box-'demand feature'. I looked it up: the bank can demand payment, calling the loan, at any time without giving a reason. It said that some states prohibit that practice. Is Arizona one? Calling the loan could destroy us and force the property into foreclosure.
  • My landlord has turned off my access to my porch light in order to save money. My entrance is in the back of the house where it s extremely dark. Entrance into the area is through a gate where the step has eroded away, making for a dangerous entrance, even in the light. Is my landlord required to provide a safe entryway, including lighting?
  • What are my rights as a tenant in an apartment complex, if the property management fails to take care of my rodent issue? I have lived here for 6 months now and the issue has been reoccurring the last month and a half.
  • Are landlords responsible for termites/ swarmers in apartment complex!? Lease states they cover “pest control but excluding “wood eating insects” and they are not responsible for any damage to my property because of them... !? That cant be legal. Its like living outside with all these flying termites.
  • About two weeks ago our shed caught on fire in the middle of the night while we were asleep. The fire department determined the cause unknown. Who's responsibility is it to have the ashes and debris removed from the yard, mine or the landlords?
  • I'm 17 and my dad took my car away. Yes, he bought the car and paid off the insurance but the car is under my name. He got cocky with me last night and threatened to sell my car but its under MY NAME. What are my rights, can I take him to court, or call the cops and make them make him give me the keys ?
  • My friend let me stay in his house and the day before yesterday he told me he sold the house a d o need to move out. How much time do I have before I have to. Vacate the primisses and if he sold the house does he have to help me financially to try and get somewhere else to stay?????
  • I just moved in a month ago. An constantly see mice can I break my lease?
  • I have a right to sue letter from the EEOC I wanted more information and calrification on this letter and had a few other questions. I have a discrimination case with the EEOC and retaliation one as well
