QUESTIONS

  • Can the City of Phoenix charge me for service I do not receive. The City charges me for garbage and sewer even though the home is vacant six months out of the year.
  • An insurance company contacted us and informed us that our father purchased us whole life policies the year of our birth. He is not alive so we have no information on these policies. The insurance company claims that both my brother's and my policies have had two loans issued against them on the same date. They cannot provide us any documents to prove the loans that have over the last 30+ years have increased for interest and penalties to over $8500 on each policy. It is my understanding that an active contract requires documents associated must be kept. Would that be accurate?
  • Info on emergency custody
  • One year after my wife died, I asked my new girlfriend to move in my home with me. She has been with me three years and now I want her out of my house. Am I liable to give her compensation?
  • Does a landlord have to let you know if someone has died in the home before you rent it
  • We are senior citizens. A bank is offering us a home loan that we assumed was fixed interest-the rate dropped a fraction, even-then I happened to notice an unfamiliar phrase with a tiny checked box-'demand feature'. I looked it up: the bank can demand payment, calling the loan, at any time without giving a reason. It said that some states prohibit that practice. Is Arizona one? Calling the loan could destroy us and force the property into foreclosure.
  • Can a pendente lite for child support be obtained if parents were never married and are awaiting a child custody trial?
  • Me and my husband separated almost 4 years ago but not signed official separation agreement and if I buy real estate now with money send from my sister,will it be considered as my separate property or community property? Thank You
  • I have joint legal custody and we have parenting time my child mother is continuously leaving my daughter home by herself while shes at work I keep asking if i can keep my daughter so she's not home alone and her mother keep denying me. Is there anything I can do so my child is not left home alone.
  • I have a question concerning FBI federal background checks. Is it true that the state only reports arrests to the FBI if there are fingerprints? If I have a dismissed misdemeanor, which did not require my fingerprints or an arrest, will the record be sent to the FBI?
