QUESTIONS

  • I am currently married to the alcoholic mother of my 14 year old daughter. She has 2 arrests for domestic violence and is currently serving a court ordered program for her last offense. I am seeking a divorce and want custody of our daughter, however i travel frequently for my job. Do I have a chance of getting custody of my daughter in the divorce?
  • My sister’s landlord accepted my sisters money orders for rent, but did not cash them or pay the management co. They are now trying to charge her late fees or evict. My sister got the money orders back. They are all dated as proof of payment, but the company is insisting she pay the late fees. They have a court order for eviction. What are her rights? She has the MO’s as proof! Should she go to court?
  • Does landlord have the right to impose a monthly fee for indoor pets when the tenant owns the mobile home and pays rent for the space only since the pet will never impact the mobile home community?
  • My case has been "vacated" but still shows up on background checks. Will hiring a lawyer to 'set aside' the felony still be needed...or not? I never received any information that I was even charged with the felony (disorderly conduct). AND - is it possible to have this removed from background checks? Will further expungement/setting aside help at all? thank you!
  • I am divorced and currently pay child support. My x was arrested for dui (metabolite) with our 15 year old in the car when it occurred. My x decided not to accept what tthe city offered to settle and decide to go to trial. Can I file for full custody and have child support paid to me if she is convicted? What is the process and how long does it take? Or can I have my child support obligation remove altogether?

  • My new apt. has many old water leaks I only discovered when it rained, and a large patch of black mold that's not responding to me spraying mold and mildew cleaner on it growing on the outside exterior of my living room wall in a closet. During the last storm, I had water trickling down the drywall and across the ceiling in my bedroom and one can see it's not a new leak and has been repaired before. Maintenance says they can only cosmetically scrape and paint it. I can't live here even if its remedied because it's extensive and I'm very sensitive to mold already. What do I do?
