QUESTIONS

  • Is Arizona a common-law marriage state? If two seniors have been living together for more than ten years without being married and one passes away, will the living senior be responsible for the debts of the deceased.
  • If I own my mobile home, can the park charge a pet fee? I understand if it were a rental, but I own it outright. Should I still pay a pet fee, per pet?
  • We rented from a complex in Phoenix with a 13 month lease. We gave a 30 day notice and broke our lease after 6 months for my wife to take a job in PA. The lease states that we are responsible for the entire amount due UNTIL the apt is rented. That amounts to $11,000! It is now in collections, so I called to see if the apt. has been rented yet. I was not told if it has been, but the mgr. said it does not matter because we are still responsible for ALL of the rent, since we did not pay it all when we moved out. . Can they charge us for rent on an apt that is being rented? If so--RIDICULOUS
  • If you are a miner can they arrest you without notifying the parents and can they detain you without giving you a phone call
  • My son is 6 mos into a 15 mo drug program. This program will become part of probation when he is sentenced next mo.

  • My Birth Certificate reads Kitrina and I have been writing as Katrina since high school. Everything I own is in Katrina, Driver's Lic, Soc Sec card, Bank Account, Home ownership. With the new Driver's Lic requirements my Birth Cert. would not make it possible any longer to have it Katrina they will only issue with Kitrina. Do I have to do a legal name change?
