QUESTIONS

  • Just this past year (2010) I found a website where I could file an answer to an eviction notice, ONLINE. What happened to that?
  • The house we rent is in foreclosure. Are we obligated to stay in the house for the 90 days allowed or can we move as soon as we find a new place to live? Can the landlord hold us to the terms of the lease even though the house is in foreclosure now? Can he take us to court if we move out prior to the end of the lease?
  • I am currently renting a mobile home in a 55+ community. Our trailer is old, but the tenant does not want to do any repairs on it. Our AC is only getting down to 86 degrees, and has been 92 degrees inside for the past week. Is this legal? I also have pets.
  • Is ARS 28-662A enforceable on private property (in a parking lot)?
  • I have friends whom I have know for 61yrs. We considered them as parents and they have called us their kids.They loaned us money for a down payment.At the time I was their POA .We advised them we didn't know when or if we would be able to pay then back.Dont worry about it..It is going to be yours.To make a long story short she broke her hip we cared for her and her husband for 3 months.Now they have turned on us and want their money.They have lawyer involved.What are my options?
  • where do i go to file a small estate affidavit?
  • My spouse signed a personal guarantee for his business (an AZ LLC). If his debtor tries to collect, what is at risk? If we have been married for more than 15 Years, is our property or just his at risk?
  • My niece used drugs in the past, paid for her crimes with a jail time. Upon release she regained custody of her two boys. She cleaned up/turned her life around. She remarried and had a third child. Her mother having had the boys during her jail stay became too attached/ makes up complaints abuse even puts things in the boys. She speaks ill of my niece to the boys trying to make them resent their mother. The boys 5/7 want to be with their mom & brother. The grandmother claims abuse but only wants the two older children. She says she has grandparent rights forcing my niece to comply with her every wish. Does my niece have to let the grandmother continue to see the kids? It is causing the boys much confusion.
  • I am 26 years old and live in Tucson Arizona. My sister is 16 years old and a US citizen. She lives with my parents in mexico (they do not have papers to live in the states)My sister wants to move to the states to finish school and go to college. How can i obtain temporary custody for her to come live with me? High schools have told me i need to have legal custody of her for me to enroll her in school. Please help!
  • A tree fell through my apartment for the third time in the 14 years i have lived there. This time there was damage to my personal property. Is my landlord responsible for replacing my property? She has known that this tree was dead for a long time.
