QUESTIONS

  • I was evicted due to inability to pay due to high medical cost. My landlord allowed the 21 days but took my personal effects to Prescott. Is that possible??? I have lost all due to this disaster. I take responsibility for not paying. I have the funds to pay off the judgment, but have lost all.. Plus a work computer that belongs to my company covered by HIPPA laws. Thank you in advance
  • I have been told that my living situation with the kids is illegal. Currently we live in a small townhome and two boys and a girl live in the same room. The boys are 13 and 10 and the girl is 14. Are there laws against this?
  • Post Decree Modificiation for Legal Decision Making and Parenting time: The court vactated a BIA attorney hearing due to a report not being available and moved to dismiss the entire Petiton and place the case on the inactive calander. Opposing party requesting trial with no new evidence? Can I object? Or request a evidentiary hearing as we just had trial Oct 2017 (10 months ago).
  • I want to leave the state and go to Nevada with my daughter but her dad tells me it’s illegal and if I do it I’ll be in trouble. Is this true? We were never married, he is on her birth certificate.
  • Can a parent force an 18 year-old to leave their home?
  • I live in a manufactured home on my daughers land. In lieu of space rent, I "sold" my trailer and car to her back in 2010. It is now jointly titled. When I die, I will only have household possessions, clothes, some jewerly. My entire possessions if sold at yard sale prices would probably net less than $2,000. Would my daughter have to do a Small Estate Affidafidt for my few earthly possessions? The cost of filing and hiring a lawyer would surpass the value. I may have to go on Medicaid as well- do they go after personal possessions (not property)? I would hate to have to cause such a burden for such few possessions. Thank you!
  • I have a service dog and was recently informed that my apartment cannot charge me rent for him. However, at the time of my move in, I was unaware of this and the landlord did not make this known to me so I have paid $20 a month pet rent for the past two years. Am I entitled to reimbursement? They say it was not their responsibility to inform me and that they are not obligated to inform tenants of this exception. And that it was my responsibility to know this about my dog and to inform them. They are no longer charging me as of July as I have now documented that the dog is exempt
  • In 2005, I had double strokes which left me unable to walk, memory loss,or to feed myself. My youngester daughter always took care of me. During that time I lived by myself in my home. My only son volunteered to stay with me in my home and take care of me. He lied to me in Dec. '06 and made me sign over the title of my home. He no longer wanted to take care of me so he told my oldest daughter to take me for the weekend while he changed the locks to my home. My oldest daughter then took me to my grandaughter's home and left me there. Now I am living with my youngest daughter and want my home back. I was in no mental condition to know what was going on, I trusted my only son.
  • Hello I have allowed my friend to move in on a temporary basis while she locates permanent housing without accepting rent. I am the legal owner of the home, no signed rental agreeement but verbally and through text initially agreed to 3 month minimum time. Can I evict sooner if so how? What are my rights as the owner.
  • Can I be evicted for my child being accused of disorderly conduct without going to court first
