QUESTIONS

  • My brother and his ex girlfriend are unfit parents. They try to avoid responsibility at all costs when it comes to my nephew. Is there any way that I can request custody of my nephew to provide him stability and the attention he needs?
  • I was served with a protection order and had to leave my home. My girlfriend went by the house and noticed my roommate who had me served took my door off its hinges and stole my tools out of my room as well as the shed. What do I do?
  • Who do I report to if I know of someone working while being paid for medical disability?
  • Someone broke the front window of the house I am renting. I called the police and filed a report but the landlord says that she doesn't have to fix it because there haven't been any other windows in the neighborhood, so I must have been targeted. Shouldn't the landlord have to fix it?
  • My husband and i are still married i never wanted a divorce. He has an alcohol addiction and one day decided to leave and ignore me. Its been a month since he has seen his child. And he only texts my sons cell phone. He only showed up at my mothers house with the police to take my vehicle away to which he was unsuccessful in doing. Then another long period of silence. What are my options, entitlements and chances of Custody if he tries to take me to court?
  • If a person has sexual contact with a minor, who lied about their age, Is there any defence? Unsure of the other parties true age (since they have lied so much). Nothing has been charged thus far, should the 'defendant' seek an attorney now. Is this a case where they could ask for PD? "D" has document mental health issues, I need to advise them on what to do asap. Will be taking "D' to mental health (emergency) clinic in the am.

  • 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?
  • If the house is unhabitable due to rodent activity and poison all over the house, upon move in, can we get refunded and pull out of the agreement. Because we got an inspection the day we got the keys and it's infested. They also told us as we were signing the lease that there are no mice and no termites. Which we found out through a pest company, the house had both.
  • My husband and I have been living apart for over a year. He left when I was 3 months pregnant. Right now we are going through a divorce. He is not paying child support. Will the court order that he pays back child support? He also has not pais medical bills resulting from birth. paid some child support, than stopped.
