  • Started a year lease (8/2019) In my current apartment. The first 4 months we’ve been having constant plumbing issues where the shower has over flowed with sewage back 3-4 times a single month. In the result of damaging/ruining personal items. All of the rugs destroyed by sewage flooding out of bathroom into hallway and entering bedroom. I’ve lost shoes, clothes, electronics, furniture etc.. with that being said, their has been constant headaches and migraines due to the horrid smell. I need a better understanding of the responsibilities for a landlord, in the state of Arizona. Rent Deduction?
  • I was charged with a DUI in Pima county. I went before the judge and was told that the case had been dismissed because prosecution was waiting on lab results. The judge told me that the county had 6 months to refile. Is this true?
  • I returned part of my tenants deposit because their dog wet on the carpet. We took pics and the carpet person said it was pet urine. My question is how long do I have to give the tenant to cash the check before I can stop payment? It has been over a month since they received it.

  • I just had a baby and an ex-boyfriend who is not the father of my baby is taking me for paternity test. Do I have to pay court fees every time someone wants to claim to be the father of my child. I was not even with him at the time and the father of my baby is on birth certificate and the baby has the fathers last name. Question is why do I have to pay court fees to respond, it's like anyone can petion to be the father and I have to pay court fees when I alresdy know who father is
  • I currently own a home which I live in and have a tenant. There is no signed lease agreement, just a verbal month to month. He has not paid his rent and continues to give me the run around and has not been at the house since the 1st which is when rent is due. I have continually contacted him via text message and told him if he does not pay he leaves. He has promised everyday to pay and has not even come home. Last night he promised via text to pack his stuff and leave if I did not have the money by the end of the day yesterday. Can I just change the locks and pack his stuff?
  • If I buy everything for my daughter shoes clothing, uniforms for school hygiene, her eye glasses do I still have to pay child support
  • I have a order of protection on my ex, he isn't supposed to contact me, and my address and stuff is protected. My question is, is he violating the order by going and harassing my family trying to get my address? He's telling them he needs my address, they know not to give it to him, do I file a report?
