QUESTIONS

  • I was married to my ex-husband for 11 years. He served in Air Force until he retired. Nothing regarding his retirement is in our divorce decree. Can I collect some his pension under the Former Spouse Retirement Act?
  • The question concerns anti-deficiency laws in Arizona (non-recourse state) in regards to foreclosure? I am trying to determine if they are different for owner-occupied and non-owner-occupied residences in Az? If there is a deficiency in the foreclosure, can I be sued as a non-occupant owner for a deficiency.
  • If our garage broke, we could close it, and our property manager stated "their repair guy" could not come for 2 days and we had to secure the premises; we had to pay $350 for a repair man to JUST shut the door. 2 days later "their repairman" came and replaced the door. Now my landlord, per the property manager, is saying he will only give us $65 back since we didnt use "their repairman"! I have all of the emails as that is the ONLY way to speak with our property manager.

  • I currently live out of state with my children. My ex's lawyer and him have manipulated the truth and twisted things around to make things go in his favor knowing I would not be able to afford the legal counsel to continue the fight. Can I somehow stop him from using that lawyer in the future? How can I find a lawyer now that my family and I are tapped out and we are still paying legal fees? We still have several issues and I would like a mediator/lawyer to correct things however, I do not know where to start now that we are in another state and I can't afford legal counsel. What do I do?
  • Is it possibly to get a criminal lawyer probono. Charges from my past when i was still doing drugs were brought up last week. I have no involvement in that life anymore but now because im on probation(almost done),& have a prior felony (not same charge) im looking at prison time. Their possession of dangerous drugs, intent to sell, paraphernalia and one more drug related charge i cant remember. Please help me.
  • My parents are on social security income only and we are evaluating whether to put my Dad in a nursing home. He would most likely be eligible for ALTCS. My parents own their home and it is the only asset left to support my mother. I heard that a nursing home can take half the house value if the house is sold within 3 years of my father entering a facility. Can the home be put into a trust for my mother or sold to a family member before my father enters a nursing home to avoid this?
