QUESTIONS

  • Where can I find covenant divorce packet to file for divorce
  • I am currently expecting a baby. The father of my baby left me when I was 7 months, but has stated he wants to be in the baby's life. He is a habitual marijuana smoker, heavy drinker, and the people he surrounds himself with are not the kind of influences I want around my child. He moved in with his mom, who keeps a very dirty house and has been in and out of the hospital with MRSA for the last couple of years. I do not feel like he can provde a safe and stable environment for my daughter. He believes he will get joint custody. What actions do I need to take to ensure this does not happen?
  • I am planning on moving at the end of April. I have resided here for almost 5 years. I am worried the apt manager is going to bill me for the carpet and paint. The carpet was old when I moved in. My question is "can they bill me for carpet replacement and paint after I have been here for almost 5 years"
  • I was told by a few friends that during the summer months in Arizona, when your involved in an eviction, that when small children are involved the landlord is unable to evict the family when there is no resources to provide shelter. Is this correct?
  • If I am in the process to purchase a home, how much time is required to give my apartment complex of my notice to vacate?
  • I have joint custody and am needing to file a petition to prevent relocation. The court gave me a blank title page packet. What do I need to include in this petition?
  • My landlord turned off the heat to the entire apt complex a week ago, and stated that it can't be turned back on. It is reasonable to presume that without heat, the temperature inside the residing units will be comparable to outside. I tried to submit, in writing, a letter requesting that by purchasing an adequate heater to heat my unit during this time, I may apply the amount spent on the heater, with proof of receipt, to be deducted from my rent for the month of March, 2015. I cited 33-1324 and 33-1364 in the letter. The landlord denied the request. How enforceable is my principle?
  • Can I request "in-home" assistance thru AHCCCS? We are in need of assistance for someone with mild Alheimer's as reminders for taking medicine and for personal health & safety a few hours a day. Is this possible thru AHCCCS?
  • In AZ what is the grace period for surviving family members to vacate a subsidized apt- Section 8 HUD housing of a deceased parent? . 14 or 21 days? I called HUD and they recommended I ask you as this is for Tucson, AZ
  • Im 14 years old my mother is incarcerated, and my dad, which passed away sometime after I was born. I am currently living with my sister (22years Old)which has 3 kids of her own. Money is really tight and I dont like to ask for money, so I'm always looking for ways to get money to buy clothes and other things which i need and or want. She does good at keeping a stable home and food on the table. I just want to know if there is anyway we can receive money to help support me.
