QUESTIONS

  • My divorce is final and has been dissolved. I was awarded the house and it’s just in my name, but he won’t leave. How can I evict him?
  • I currently reside at Bellridge apartment homes in Phoenix, and have since 2016. I recently have been looking for a new home do to multiple reasons with the complex that I reside in. I have been rejected due to past evictions that are open on my background check. Yet, I have not been evicted since 2009. My current landlords have an open eviction on me from January 2017 and are not willing to help me with the situation in person. I am living in their residence with an open eviction from 2 years ago. What would be a good course of action is my question?
  • I paid my deposit to my landlord with 2 money orders. I have receipts from the landlord for both of them. The landlord "lost" one of the money orders. They are now asking me to pay them again for the lost one and for me to file the paperwork myself to see if I can get the money back from the company who issued the original money order. I feel that once it left my possession and they gave me a receipt that it is their responsibility. Can they penalize me for their mistake?
  • I am at 0 earning potential, have 3 kids (1,4,7), the 2 oldest are from the marriage, the baby is from current relationship. my ex is taking me back to get the 0 earning potential changed.Day care for all my kids would be all of my paycheck! would they still change it like I am working when I am not? Do I need to put my boyfriends income and info on the paperwork? are there any adjustments since I had another baby?
  • My mothers health has drastically changed and she only lives on social security, a very small disability bi-weekly stipend and has medicare. While my mother has been accepted for medicaid as a secondary insurance, she will have to contribute monthly of $406 so that she will be able to have full time home health care (vs only part time with medicare). This expense will make it impossible to help her pay her credit card debts off. My mother needs to contribute to medicaid but then won't have enough to pay off her debts. What are options as far as her credit cards? Should I close them (with her on the phone) and let them know that she is unable to pay so we'd need a settlement price? Or just walk away? I am unsure of her options as my original plan was to help her pay them off one by one.
