QUESTIONS

  • I was recently laid off work as a biomedical technican, allegedly for "reduction in force" needs. I suspect that my selection for dismissal was primarily based on my age (44yo), as a recently highed 22yo female technician was retained despite having almost no experience and still being trained. I can't afford high lawyer consult fees so what can I do to determine if I have a valid claim?
  • how am i able to break my lease , when my place is infested with mold? i have bathroom mold in the walls ( i know its black ) and i have mushrooms coming from the ceiling
  • Our tenant moved out on November 29, having not paid part of October, or November. There are extensive damages to the house that exceed their security deposit. They have said that they do not have money to pay us the back rent, or for the damages above the security deposit. I'm thinking of going to small claims court for the back rent, and then going to Superior court for the damages above the security deposit in the not to distant future. Is that legally acceptable? I am in the process of collecting quotes for repairs. Thank you!
  • I have a 2 year old child with my ex. we were never married and never went through the courts to establish custody. He moved out of state when my son was 3 months old and has only seen him a few times. My fiance is in the army and we will be relocating to texas when he gets home from his deployement. Is there a law that can stop my ex from letting me leave the state with my son, even though he doesnt even live here?
  • So my family and I moved into a house on the 1st of the year and the second week we were there the wall heater had just stopped working and I have been asking him to fix the problem all the way up to it catching on fire and now I dont know what legal actions I should take. Me not thinking at all never texted him about it but i had called him on multiple accounts telling him about it and showed up to his office to tell him to fix it. I just had a baby on the 22 of feburary and the fire happened on the 24 the day after we brought him to the house.

  • My son was hurt at work and was out for 3 months. He went back to work on light duty or 2 weeks. He then was in a personal motorcycle accident and has been out of work for 1 1/2 months. On his personal accident he went to apply for FMLA and was denied and told that his work already used his 12 weeks up. He knew nothing about this. He was on workmans compensation at the time that they used his FMLA. Is there any recourse to get his FMLA back so he can use it for his personal accident? Why would he need to use his FMLA when he was on workmans compensation?
