Are there options for out of state former tenants or must I travel back to Arizona? Thank you.
  • Relative on parole & will not listen. He is not forthcoming with details but was stopped in Mohave county & now has a criminal case in their court system. He lives in Yavapai County. He never showed for court and has failed to pay fines for a different case from 2 months ago. He is saying he is going to flee to another state. When he flees & WHEN he is caught - what kind of additional time is he looking at for purposely leaving the state to avoid going back to prison. The last entry in the Mohave court system is 8/17/15. Today is 9/1 - How long does will it take for a new warrant to be issued?

  • I don't know how to classify my question, by is very important and I need a lawyer help or advice. I'm starting a non-profit organization and I need help with the steps to follow. Do you or do you know someone that can help me and that don't charge me an arm and a leg for the help? I've been calling several places and they wouldn't be able to do that because they are not doing the service free or their charge are too much. Please let me know where I can go or to who I can call to get the help.
  • Was just awarded child support for my 7 year old son. Would now like to file for payments for previous 3 years which I understand is as far back as law allows. Which forms do I need to file to achieve this?
  • My husband filed for a divorce.  Do I have to file a response or can I just let it default after the 20 days if I agree with everything on the paperwork I was given in regards to the property he wants?
  • My brother and I had a verbal agreement that he would purchase my property in which I run my business from and live and we would then do a lease option to buy back with a set price being set at time of agreement and I would be responsible for making interest only payments on the money he borrowed to pay for the property, which was fine. However he has not provided me with any type of a written agreement, it is two years later and payment is quadruple what it was suppose to be and now he is trying to evict me and sell the property, do I have any rights? I have emails stating the above.
  • A neighbor verbally agreed to pay half of the cost to replace a shared section of backyard fence after it blew down from a storm. She said she couldn't pay at the time but would pay later, and never has. She will not answer her door or phone, so I sent a certified letter but no response. Other neighbors paid when job was complete. She owes me $378. I want to avoid small-claims court but can't find information about mediation. What are my options?
