QUESTIONS

  • My husband has already passed away and we have 1 adult daughter. I do not have a lot of money & cannot afford an attorney. My estate will be worth less than $15,000. How do I give my daughter authority to dispose of my possessions?
  • I am a landlord and my tenant has notified me that they will most likely terminate their lease early as they want a bigger unit to start a family. The lease agrement states that if a tenant leaves early then then that means forfeiture of their security deposit. Is this legal for a landlord to doin Arizona?
  • Does FMLA cover care for grandparent?
  • My ex and I have 50/50 custody. She frequently fails to pick up the children for her custody periods. Recently she dropped them off at school and told the school that I would be picking them up (again, her custody period). Obviously, I don’t mind having the children, but it is hard to manage impromptu scheduling changes in addition to the fact that I pay child support. What can I do?
  • recently moved to a home that was under remodel was assured with written agreements this would be complete 2 months after still not finished,but demanding all rent due? I have a lease and limited funds to move what do I do?
  • Our lease ended July 31st. We forgot to shut off the electric until August 14th. Now we have a bill for those two weeks. Who is responsible to pay? Us or the Complex?
  • I planned to utilize 12 weeks of FMLA for the birth and care of my baby. However, the doctor will only allow me 6-8 weeks and then considers me "fit to return to work". The pediatrician cannot give me an addition an excuse for the care of my baby - unless the baby is sick. Legally, can my employer require me to return to work when my doctor says that I am able? How can I extend my leave to 12 weeks?
  • The air conditioning in my house went out. I am currently renting. We notified our property management and they sent someone out the next day. The ac company said they cant fix it for a week. Our property management told us to find somewhere else to stay. Is there a law that they have to pay for us to stay in a hotel? And is there a law stating that we can deduct money from rent from each day that we are not staying in the house? And if so then how much? Thank you.
