  • My boyfriend was arrested last night for aggravated assault against me. I told the police that he has a history of mental illness and that he needed to go to a psychiatric hospital but they took him to jail anyway.

  • I rent from a rental property management company, and today there was a "NOTICE OF TRUSTEE SALE" post on my door.The letter states that the house will be auctioned off in 2 months(11/13/2015), I'm unsure if I should stay or go before the auction, and if I go would I be at risk if I used the rent to move?
  • I let my cousin and her daughter leave some of their belongings in my back house. It was only supposed to be for a few weeks it has now been over three years. I have talked to my cousin and have repeatedly told her to pick up her stuff. She says she'll be here a certine day and never comes. Her daughter I can never get a hold of what can I do with all their stuff now?
  • If the childrens father rights were terminated does his parents still have rights to them can they still ask for visitation?
  • I have a defiant 17 year old daughter who is violent and verbally abusive. She has even damaged our home by punching holes in the doors and is using drugs. She will not follow any of our rules and basically comes and goes as she pleases. She turns 18 in 5 months, but will not graduate high school until May of next year. Are we still responsible for her until she graduates, or do our responsibilities end once she turns 18? She is causing turmoil and fear within our home and we just don't know what our rights are.
  • the father of my children, my husband, lives in Phoenix, AZ. he no longer wanted us. no blames that on adhd he has. since may 25 our two sons and i moved to S.C. now my husband says he wants his children back. am i able to file for divorce in AZ even though i now live in S.C.?
  • I want to Petition the court for Grandparent's visitation. The only closely related forms I can find all relate to cases that are already being and have been litigated to some degree or another. The kids' parents were never married and there has been no legal steps taken by either party for formal custody, support, etc. Do I need to just write my own petition and start from square one? As far as I can tell the Superior Court is the proper venue...I would hate to petition the wrong court! Thank you for your help.
