QUESTIONS

  • My ex and I shared a storage unit in AZ for almost 3 years. After we broke up, he now lives in TN and I moved back to TX. I'd like to go to AZ to get a few of my things that are irreplaceable (family photos, records, diplomas, etc.) The storage unit said I no longer have access to the unit since he has removed me as an authorized user. Only he can access it or he hast to be present (he's abusive, i dont want him near me) What are my rights? Can an officer escort me to the unit? Is Public Storage that powerful as to withhold my things? Can i send public storage an affidavit to mail my things?
  • I need to move for work. It's before the end of the lease. If I turn over keys and pay in full, can I demand security deposit returned? Landord is saying that I would still be responsible for the property...is this true?

  • is the owner and employees of the park allowed to come on my lot at any point without my permission? I feel like I"m being targeted for unknown reasons as I"ve had someone come on my lot several times and we have caught them and they pretended they were "cutting" through to the other side.

I married a foreign national who continues to live in her country with no intentions of relocating to the United States, nor I to her country. I have submitted an application two years ago reguesting she be add to my disability compensation award as my spouse which would increase my award amount. Recently, in a conversation with a VA REP via telephone I was advised my request would be denied as my foreign born wife does not have a SSN.
