  • How do I foreclose on a property that has a breech of contract for a promissory notes that was secured by the home with a lien and one that was recorded last year? What is the process?
  • my husband and I have a child together. she is 18 months old. I lived in CA and want to return there my husband wants to stay in AZ with our child. He is verbally and mentally abusive. He has a drug and alcohol problem. How can I leave AZ with my child legally. He is kicking me out of the apartment and telling me the child stays with him. What do I do?
  • If i'm assaulted by a correctional officer and they claim asualt on them, do I have right to sue or press charges?
  • When a person passes away are the outstanging debts,like credit cards passed on to their adult children?
  • My roommate left a month ago to go back East to visit family. When he left as far as I knew he had every intention of returning. I have not heard from him in 3 weeks now. He is not returning my calls. He left his car in my garage & other personal items. I own the house & he rented a room. How long do I have to wait to get rid of his stuff? Also, what do I do with his car?
  • I got granted temporary sole legal decision making of my daughter but during this case I got into a car accident with my other daughter, I was not the driver or passenger and had no illegal part in this accident. Now my daughters father is telling me he has temporary sole custody and I cannot see her at all. He has domestic violence and was told that sole custody was not an option in our case for him. He got a lawyer and we made a settlement so it would be easier for me because the accident ruined everything with my life and I signed it but she told us that we needed to get it notarized.
  • Questions on the rights of unmarried fathers-Is it possible to get a court order for a paternity test while the mother is still pregnant (we are not married), or does AZ not recognize those tests? Is it possible to have the mother court ordered to allow me at prenatal appts and the birth of my unborn child? Lastly, do I (as an unmarried father) have any rights at all while the mother is still pregnant? I understand I can gain rights AFTER the child is born, but I would like to be involved long before that.
  • We need to add my name to the birth certificate of our daughter. We have my wife's divorce paperwork stating by the judge that I am the natural father. But the Office of Vital Statistics stated that a court must also include an order to add my name to the birth certificate. How do I go about accomplishing this? Thank you.
  • if i was to be offered living allowances by my company while travelling but returned home could this be seen as an act of fraud
