QUESTIONS

  • I recently found out that my ex-husband (we were married at the time) was continuing to collect my unemployment benefits under my name for 5 months after I started a new job! DES is now trying to sue me for collecting unemployment! Is there any way to prove that HE was the one collecting my unemployment and NOT me (he was collecting it via the automated weekly claim over the phone)?! How can I prosecute or go after him for the money owed and not me!?
  • I have a student loan from 1979, (GSL/private type student loan), that I had to stop making payments on. The loan was sold and collections activity has resumed from Navient. The contract states that the loan is cancelled upon death or disability. Can Navient sue me for repayment -take my car etc? Thank you.
  • I am veteran and receive pay as married I think 3 dependents. One of those children does not live with me but have legal joint custody. Can the mother of him take my monthly stipend for him away? I receive 75 dollars a month for him.
  • My boyfriend and I are of legal age, and my Parents filed a restraining Order. What are my Rights and can they do that?
  • I'm being sued for credit card debt of 1000.00. I answered the summons and now their attorneys want no trial but want the judge to resolve the issue. What are my options? Do they put a lien on my property?
  • Can I have my arrest record sealed? The felony charge was dismissed for insufficient evidence. I have a prior arrest in another state but the misdemeanor charge was also dismissed for insufficient evidence.
  • I turn 18 in October. I was wondering what it would take to change my last name to my moms maiden name in October. My mom is okay with it and father hasn't been in my life. Also my mom and father are seperated and going through child support issues. Is there anything that would prevent me from doing that? If so what can i do?

  • Since I moved in I have asked management to repair numerus things. Fill many cracks everywhere to avoid water damage and bugs from other apts. Tiny squirt of caulking on tub dried and separated. I now have LOTS of roaches AND bed bugs because they wouldn't do their jobs. They have caller ID so when I call they ignore me. They told me so. They offered me another apartment with a $275 transfer fee. I already paid over $700 security fee. I'm disabled, on SSI. What can I do?
