QUESTIONS

  • What can I do if I feel my 9 year old is not being properly cared for in the other parent's home that I currently share joint custody with? For example, most recently the other parent left our child at a nearby apartment complex pool with another 9 year old completely alone and unsupervised or accompanied by any other adult (the kids were the only ones there) for over an hour while the other parent allegedly walked to a gas station to purchase alcohol. My child also complains that the other parent is using drugs in front of him. Is this considered neglect and what are my options?
  • If my ex gets married and has another child in that marriage, can he request to lower his child support payments because he has another child to take care of?
  • How long does our landlord have to repair our garage door? Here's the issue. The automatic system is working, however the door itself is having problems and will not open or close, except for manually. But, the door does not have a lock and is not secured. I've put crow bars in slots on either side of the door but it still opens about three feet. The manager refuses to answer my communications about the door and it's been 24hrs and I'm fearful that someone will get into the garage. Also, it's a terrible pain to go in, pull the bars out, open and or close the door, put the bars in again. Help!
  • I would like my fiance to adopt my children. I do have sole custody of my children. Do I still need permission from the father?
  • I did not file for divorce and custody rights yet but if I will, is there any possibility that I could have the sole custody of my child? My husband has a history of domestic violence, extreme dui and issue from his ex-wife's son. I have a restraining order for him which was not served to him yet  because I do not know where he's at now. Can I still divorce him even if I do not know the address? And get divorced too?
  • If my AC goes out, does my landlord have to pay for a hotel room (within reason) until the ac is fixed?
  • How much can a mobile home park charge for a pet deposit when I own the mobile home?
  • My daughter had sex with her 16 year old boyfriend after school. She lives with her dad. I have had him over on weekends but I have supervised them. Now they say they had sex at my place. Can anything be done to me. I didn't know they had sex here.
