QUESTIONS

  • My girlfriend and I are having a baby in September. will as the father have equal rights with out having to pay child support even if we are not and are not going to get married? will I be able to have equal rights with out being married to her?
  • If my ex wife is now making more money than i am and we share joint custody of my daughter, do I have to continue paying the same amount if any child support. I was paying 535 a month but was making 2000 a month now i'm lucky if i even make 500 a month and can barely keep a roof over my head and food in the fridge-i get food stamps but she take half or all of that too.
  • I printed out a Pima County #2 divorce packet but i live in Yuma County. Can i use that packet to file for a divorce in Yuma?
  • A few years ago my husband and i went to a lawyer and went through the process of appointing a legal guardian for our children, if we should happen to pass away. We have the paperwork at home, in our safe. However, the couple we appointed at the time is not who we want now. What do we have to do to get it changed? We were told we could just write who we want now on a different piece of paper and get that notarized. Is that correct?
  • I owe child support enforcement for back child support, but will soon receive an inheritance. Will they take this?
  • I have joint legal decision making with my child's father. he recently request a list of everyone who lives in our household do I need to give him that information?
  • My husband wants a divorce, however he says he will take our 3 yr old daughter from be because he feels I do not treat her right (he calls it abuse). He is 62, physically disabled and receives SSI for his mental disability which includes rage issues, depression and suicidal ideology. Does he have a leg to stand on and will the court actually grant him custody instead of me. I am terrified of what might happen if he passes away while with her.
  • I divorced in Seattle 11 years ago and my ex moved down to Phoenix with my son and I moved down here 5 years ago. He is 13 now and I have always paid child support but I have no record of it, as we did not go through the courts for this. I am getting married in a few months and want to have something signed or some document stating that I have paid child support for the last 13 years and something that shows I continue to pay directly to her every month. Is there something like that here in AZ that will protect me from her stating I never paid?
  • A 16 year old is arrested for possession of stolen vehicle and evading police. Released to parents, 1st offense. Owner of vehicle will not press charges. What is expected? Thank You
  • Can you please send me forms to sign up for sst?
