QUESTIONS

  • I am renting a room in a house. The landlord has not given me a signed copy of the lease/agreement. The landlord does not give me a rent receipt. I have been living here for about 8 months, sending/mailing the landlord checks regularly. Now, the landlord is asking me to give a detailed breakdown of rent/checks paid ad the associated dates in a specific format. I have done the best I can. The landlord has been sending me multiple messages regarding this over the weekend. Isn't this the landlords job, to keep track of the rent/checks paid. I feel the landlord treats me differently versus others.
  • My apartment complex in Phoenix was sold and my renewal is coming up. Can the new company make me re-qualify for my apartment and pay new deposits?
  • So my family and I moved into a house on the 1st of the year and the second week we were there the wall heater had just stopped working and I have been asking him to fix the problem all the way up to it catching on fire and now I dont know what legal actions I should take. Me not thinking at all never texted him about it but i had called him on multiple accounts telling him about it and showed up to his office to tell him to fix it. I just had a baby on the 22 of feburary and the fire happened on the 24 the day after we brought him to the house.

Before he sexual violated my daughter I had left him and was in a relationship with the man I’m married to today. My husband has raised my kids as his own for 7 years. Also the biological father was diagnosed as incompetent while he is incarcerated. Can my husband adopt my kids without his consent? So if I die he can raise my kids and not biological dads parents?
  • I am new to Arizona so I am not aware, but I move here in August listed in my lease it says my rent in $874.00 the amount for taxes is not listed however I am charged taxes. Also my lease says if I am late on my rent after the 2nd there is a late fee of $50 and thereafter it will be $10. After the 5th day I received a 5 day notice on my door in which they charged me $25 for putting a 5 day notice on my door and they taxed the $25. That amount is not in my lease. Is this legal? shouldn't both the tax amt and the 5 day notice fee be listed in my lease?
