QUESTIONS

  • I receive child support and am filing Chapter 7 bankruptcy due to disability. Do I claim child support as income?
  • I co-signed for my son on his lease in May of 2016. The lease expired without a new lease being written, do he is now month-to-month. Is it possible to remove myself from liability (terminate my part of the agreement) without taking my son off the rental agreement. He had lived there almost 2 years and has established his own credibility. Am I obligated to stay on the rental agreement as long as he stays at the rental?
  • I'm renting a apt/condo in Casa Grande. My neighbors tree fell across her driveway and landed on my parked car in my driveway. Who pays for damages to my car? My car is still drivable and damage is mostly cosmetic.
  • I have been divorced since 2003. I have been living with my exhusband since the divorce. My divorce decree calls for me to receive half of his pension. I have never asked for any alimony until now. How do I go about getting half of his monthly pension and some back pension too? I receive SSI each month.
  • After divorcing in 1999 I raised my 3 children for years while my ex scated on the majority of the support she was supposed to pay. I let it go. After she failed to return two from a visitation I agreed to allow them to stay with her. She jacked up my payment by 4x as much based on a former income. She now takes 50% of my income including Soc Sec and is starving me out. A civil matter at this time. Possilby criminal fraud. She is a legal secretary and knew what she was doing. 87 filings. I can't afford the copying fees.
  • How do I legally remove my verbally and emotionally abusive non-rent paying adult son from my home? He's also unemployed, by choice. Thank you.
  • My granddaughters are 13, 12, and 10. Their father is a truck driver and has called them insisting that he is coming to get them for the summer. They have told him they do not want to go with him. He said they have to. Can these girls be forced to go with him? He has no residence, he lives in his truck, eatting and bathing in truck stops. He calls only now and then, sometimes not for six to eight months depending if his current "woman trucking companion" will allow it. Right now he is between women, his last one facing jail time for Shop Lifting. The girls can not afford a lawyer. thanks
  • I sold my 18-wheeler on a private deal (lease/purchase) and they buyer won't live up to his end of the deal. Not only that but the truck broke down about 3 weeks after we signed the agreement and it is going to cost approximately $20,000 to fix it. What legal recourse do I have?
  • My husband is going to prison, we have a three year old and one more on the way. He is our sole income provider, will I be able to get any kind of income support while he is gone??
  • Am I covered by the FMLA?
