QUESTIONS

  • 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.
  • What can I do if I feel my 9 year old is not being properly cared for in the other parent's home that I currently share joint custody with? For example, most recently the other parent left our child at a nearby apartment complex pool with another 9 year old completely alone and unsupervised or accompanied by any other adult (the kids were the only ones there) for over an hour while the other parent allegedly walked to a gas station to purchase alcohol. My child also complains that the other parent is using drugs in front of him. Is this considered neglect and what are my options?
  • I have filled a small claims against my former landlord for failure to return refundable deposits. The defendant has requested to the court that her property agent be placed as a co-defendant and property agent is willing to accept. Can we have that person removed as defendant when they are not named in Lawsuit?
  • I wish to evict my 18 year old son. There has never been a lease as he has been a minor until recently. There are reasonable household rules regarding drinking, drugs, smoking, language, chores, etc. He chooses to disobey rules because he claims he can as an adult. He neither works nor pay rent nor contributes financially. How do we evict him?
  • If there is an old address on a Power of Attorney Health Care Form, is it still legal?
  • As a landlord what appliances are required that I supply?
  • If I found a cell phone and had it in my possession for a week. The owner was able to track and came to retrieve the property. She then filed a stolen property report to the police, and I went to trial. is there a time limit on how long someone has to retrieve lost property? How can I get found guilty on theft when I didn't steal anything?
  • We have sent our 5 day notification to a tenant via certified mail. The tenant is not answering the door in order to receive the mail and sign for it. We have also tried to hand deliver the letter but again no answer at the residence. What is the next step if we can not get the tenant to recieve the 5 day notice
  • I just got out of prison and found out i might have a son can i still establish paternity even though he was born in a marriage? and do i have rights cause they are getting divorced
  • My wife's parents are a not good influence on our family and we have told them to stay away. They refuse, and have gone as far as just sitting on my front porch in the heat refusing to leave after being told to leave so many times it makes my head spin. They wont tell us but they have told (someone that wont be named) that they would seek a lawyer to see there grand kids. Do they have any right at all to do that? we are married and are doing great, except when they are around. were a little scared and need to know if there is anyway they could side step (us) the parents and get visitation.
