QUESTIONS

  • I signed up for online Lpn to Rn program online for 13,000 dollars with Achieve Test Prep and took one class that cost 300 dollars. After 1 month Achieve Test Prep said there program no longer supports AZ so i asked for my money back since i didn't cancel the contract. They said they can only send back 10,000 and charged me 3,000 in administrative fees. This is fraud how can i sue and get this in front of a jury and what are my options?
  • I am renting to own a mobile home in a mobile home park, my propane line that runs my stove, hot water heater and furnace is leaking and i can smell propane through the house and outsied the house. my question is who is reponsible for repairing the propane line? the landlord says we are as tenents. Also, my furnace that provides heat does not work and has not worked in the whole 18 months I lived here and I have kids, he says it is my responsibility to fix.
  • Is a trailer park landlord responsible for the propane regulator,they won"t buy one, say thats my reponsibility, is it
  • Are there any laws pertaining to renting a Single Family Residence, this is not a new construction, to multiple tenants (one per bedroom) without a Certificate of Occupancy, please advise. Thank you.
  • My apartment is being infested with cockroaches due to my filthy neighbors. I have talked with the leasing office multiple times over the occasion and their have not addressed with with the neighbors. The only solution they have offered is the tiny cockroach tabs to put in cabinets. I have not had food or trash in my apartment for over two months because of not being able to live there with the cockroaches. Is there a way to break my lease because the landlord has not provided a "safe and habitual environment?"
  • I have joint legal and physical custody of my daughter (12). The access schedule we agreed to equals exactly 50/50 physical custody. Because of my work schedule (2:30-11:00pm M-F), my current wife and family members pick my daughter up from school and care for her in the evenings during the week. My question is, would a judge penalize me for not being the one physically with her during those times when figuring child support?
  • Moved into renovated home was to be done by 6/18 (day moved in). Upon arrival; 2 baseball size holes in 2 windows & piles of trash under carport. Due to incorrect measurements windows would be another week. Week1 dryer vent had to be re-cut, electrician rewired house due to fire hazard. Week2 plumbing unable to do laundry 2weeks now, family has to share 1 bathroom, windows not replaced. Week3 windows replaced 7/1–7/6, plumbing on hold to find better price (laundry?), & still sharing bathroom. Was given 1 months free rent but asking us to pay full electricity bill. What are her obligations?
  • I HAVE PRIMARY CUSTODY OF MY 9 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER. MY EX WIFE AND I HAVE BEEN DIVORCED FOR 21/2 YEARS NOW AND SHE HAS NEVER PAID CHILD SUPPORT. SHE HASNT WORKED SO I HAVENT BEEN ABLE TO GARNISH HER. NOW SHE IS GETTING A JOB AND WANTS TO AVOID THE GARNISHMENT BY SIGNING OVER HER RIGHTS. CAN SHE GET AWAY WITH THIS? IS THERE A LOOP HOLE BECAUSE SHE IS LEGALLY DIAGNOSED WITH BIPOLAR MANIA?
  • I started renting out a room in 9/2018. I received rent until middle of October and have been waiting for payments until then. In March I received $ 250 out of $ 450. I already served this tenant with a 5 day non pay but could not follow up with the eviction notice because I got sick. I am mostly wheelchair bound on top of that. Now this tenant has moved several pieces of furniture into the garage without my permission, blocking access to parts of the garage. What can I do and what can I do with those furniture? Please, I just want my peace back. I need help.
  • I found out when I was in my twenties that the father on my birth certificate is not my biological father. How can I get that corrected?, The man on my birth cert is deceased.
