  • I have 2 daughters with my ex, and am paying child support for them. I fell behind on child support due to medical reasons and not being able to work, and now she's holding my kids from me. She wont answer calls and I havent seen my kids in several years. If I'm currently paying child support but still owe back child support, can she legally hold my kids from me?
  • A few days before I turned 18, my adopted family of 4 years kicked me out and dropped me off at my birth mothers house. (Who is not capable of taking care of me) they didn't even give me a quarter of my belongings and I also didn't receive any of my documents (I.e birth certificate, social security card, etc) this has caused me many problems in the year since dealing with trying to get a car, registering for college and other things. In order to get new documents, I need to have other documents and I have none. Is there something I can legally do?
  • Hello, my son has a child with an ex girlfriend. 3 months ago the ex g/f dropped the child off with my son with no clothes,an extremely filthy diaper,no food, no toys,no bottle/sippy cup. nothing. my son is unable to care for him as my grandson has several serious medical issues steming from being born with only one enlarged kidney. My son has asked my husband and myself to take permanent custody of him since we can provide care, love and health insurance to have him medically taken care of. is this possible since there is no way to contact the childs mom? she has not been seen in 3 months
  • We are owners of a double wide in a moblie home park in Tucson.  We live out of state and for the last 5 months have received only partial payments and at this time a tenant is 4 months past due in agreed payments. We have had several issues with this problem, and feel we can no longer allow this person to occupy our property and would like to have someone tell us how we can go about serving notice for an eviction. We have read the laws of Arizona and know that a paper has to be obtained, filed, and paid for by us and then sent on to the occupant of property.  How can we start this procedure?

  • I purchased a farm using two different private loans(no banks). One loan was on a promissory note. Animals were used as the collateral on the note. Having defaulted on the note, I have turned over all the animals to the party owed. Is there an Arizona law or case that establishes the turnover of collateral as discharge of the note? Can you recommend a method for me to find this specific information. Thanks
