  • I and another coworker have become pregnant, since informing our employer of our current conditions our job responsiblities have changed dramatically, the employer has not treated us with respect and has caused undue stress on us both. Also the employer has denied us time off for doctor's appointments and refuses to work with our current schedules to accommadate our appointments. Where are we covered under the FMLA or are we? We have fewer then 15 employees and we are a non-profit organization.

  • I am getting the run around from my apartment complex about my final move out fees and charges. Every time I speak with them it is a COMPLETELY different story. I am not technically on a lease I haven't signed paperwork there since December 2013. I just moved out in November I just want to know if I am responsible for 30/60 days notice which I've already given but they keep changing their story everyday.
  • I have received a notice to move in 30 days...actually it is only 28 days as they did not figure Feb being a short month...is this legal? They want me to move in the middle of the month...my lease is up in 9/15 - they have given me no reason. Is this legal? Can they evict me? What can I do to stop this? I plan to move before my lease is up anyway.
  • Can my apartment evict me and my children for having a roomate live with me who is not on the lease? my boyfriend cannot be put on the lease due to a previous eviction years ago. Ive never been late on rent and have not violated any terms of the lease. I have 4 months left til my term is up.

  • I have an almost 6-year-old son; never married; son's father is on his birth certificate and I receive child support, but no written custody order or anything else. (Does that mean paternity has been established, but I by default have legal custody?) Son's father moved out of state a few years ago; we maintain regular contact and do visits when we're able. I would like to move out of state and potentially out of the country for my career.
  • I have not lived with my husband in over 6 years. Technically we are still legally married even though we have not been or seen or talked to each other in over years. I do know that he lives in another state but not the city or address. how can I file for divorce to finally end this chapter in my life? what are the steps i need to take to end this?
