QUESTIONS

  • Our rental home has a termite infestation and it's been over a month and our landlord has done nothing about it. What rights do we have? I've been told by our property management company that termites do not qualify under any law to terminate our lease. Are we stuck living in this house?
  • My daughter's father and I have a custody agreement signed in Oklahoma where I resided. He lives in Arizona and I have now moved to Arizona. He states that the agreement from Oklahoma is no longer binding because of jurisdictional issues. I state that it is still a valid agreement. Is he correct?
  • My apartment maintenance man flooded our apartment with toilet water. They did no cleanup. They did dry carpet and replace small area of carpet pad. We now have mold. They denied it till got inspection. Now want to transfer us but make us reapply and pay deposits. What can we legally do?
  • I was wrongfully discharged.from my former employer.
  • Apartment complex is implementing "Valet trash" service where the trash will be collected at the apartment door. There will be a fee for this service.

It is called a criminal speeding ticket. I have an otherwise clean driving record. The speeding ticket was issued at a moment of non focus and I was not consistently driving at the high speed.

Can you adivse me about pleading guilty to such a charge or help with hiring an attorney.
