QUESTIONS

  • 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?
  • I have lived with my fiance' who just passed away, for many years and handled all of Debra's medical and financial matters since she had cognitive deficiencies fro her heart issues. I need a copy of her death certificate and all my attempts have been denied by her dad, who only wanted Deb to leave me so her dad could put her in a long term care facility. I need the certificate for our bank and many of Debra's doctors, which include creditors. I need an attorney that can request this document for me. Bill
  • My work did not pay me for two weeks instead they give me $40 loans that I had to pay back. I paid back one. But for my last check they cashed it without my permission took the money I owe and give me the rest in an envelope. I want to know is it OK for them to do that?

  • I live in a mobile home park. They own the meters so they have a statement along with the lot rent. My question is the do show the ending and beginning usage and the rate. But they also charge a 20.00 service charge and they have a tax on the usage. But CAN THEY TAX A SERVICE ALONG WITH THE TAX FOR THE USE OF ELECTRICITY. ALONG with a water tax on usage and service charge alongwith RNTX. I thought sewer was figured on the amount of water used ?
  • If you have a lease, and you have had non stop roof leaks from the rain storms. Black mold growing in the ceiling. Constant requests to get them fixed have not stopped the leaking. Landlord says the lease can be broke after Dec. can he keep my deposit if we decide to take our baby and move out early?
  • Do I need to get annulment from my two month marriage. I recently found out I have been married for the past 9 years to another man that I thought I was divorced from. The original husband is a Veteran and although I might not be eligible for benefits because I left 9 years ago, I need to know if I can still apply for benefits being currently married. Does this 2 month marriage exist?
  • I have a domestic violence charge against me and although I had it set aside, I still can not get a job in AZ. I need to know how long this conviction, which is a misdemeanor, stays on my record?
  • How can I sue my University for wrongful and unjust expulsion? I feel very strongly that I was discriminated against and that the administration's decision to do so was primarily motivated by bias and prejudice. What is the legal recourse and how can I seek redress? Should I seek a judicial review? Thank you.
