QUESTIONS

  • Ny childs father's name is not on the birth certificate, can he still file for custody
  • My girlfriend and I have two children together. I would like to gain custody of them since she has been experiencing mental health issues and cannot take care of the children.  I cannot afford a lawyer and have been told I cannot leave the state without her permission and was also told since the children's birth certificates establish I am the father and that they have my last name I can relocate with them. I can't get a straight answer !
  • My landlord of the apartment complex has made everyone aware that we won't have hot water for a month and a half, and they'll take $100 off rent. Is that legal?
  • My son turned 16 and quit going to high school can child support be stopped if he is no longer enrolled in school
  • We have been renting our current property for 3 yrs. It changed owners after the first yr. We live in a 3 bedroom our first yr lease had us paying 750 a month rent. When the new owners renewed the following yr they raised the rent to 800 a month. Upon our third renewal and 2nd yr with new owners they raised the rent to 850 a month. This will be our 4th renewal 3rd lease with new owners and they have offered lease renewal for 1851 a month. This is a 1000 dollar increase monthly. Not only does it appear unethical, it seems illegal. Is this illegal? Fmr for this area is about 1360.
  • my landlord let me out of the leasing contract in writing. we both parties agreed on. dated and have signatures. now she is claiming that we owe her rent and pursuing damages such cleaning and carpets not clean by a professional company. I do have recits and pictures that demonstrate the contrary.
  • My ex owes back child support and is going to recieve an inheritance. Can Child support collect back support from his inheritance?
  • My mom served me with a order of protection which is all lies how do I appeal
  • How do I get help taking felonies off my back ground someone else did by using my name?
  • I moved in to my apartment on 6/8/18. On 8/20 I found bed bugs in my bedroom. I documented everything and my property manager said she would be sending the exterminator on 8/24 to start the treatment. My question is Who pays for the treatment? When I asked the property manager this she said the cost is split 50/50. On the lease it is NOT stated who is responsible. But, all of our furniture was purchased brand new after we moved in, so I do not believe I as the tenant should pay but I need clarity.
