QUESTIONS

  • I am a tenant and the ownr/landlord is losing the property to foreclosure and he just called me today 09-08-08 and told me I need to beout asap by the end odf the week. The question I have is can he do this the property is due to go back to the bank 09-29-08 I plan on begin out then but can he throw me out sooner?
  • Someone broke my window with a baseball from the outside. The landlord is charging me the cost incurred to fix the window. Is this my responsibility?
  • Can a landlord raise my rent and switch my lease from a year-to-year to a month-to-month before the original lease is up?
  • My landlord allowed people to live temporarily on the property in a mobile home. The mobile home was broken into so she installed cameras to protect my house and the barn that sits on the property. The cameras were installed with the use of my personal wifi. During this epidemic of the coronavirus I have been unable to work or pay my wifi bill. So the landlord purchased her own wifi and had it installed in the barn. She removed the cameras from my home and says now I must secure it myself. Is this legal?
  • My husband and I have been married for 9 months and I am 7 months pregnant. My husband has a daughter from a previous relationship. His parents (my in-laws) have stated they plan to file for grandparents rights. I know they have no rights over our son since we are married, however will they lump both kids together or not since they have two different mothers? They will try for time for our son, I already know that. I guess my concern is will they get any time with him?
  • I have a parental relationship with a 21 year old who's mother is deceased. We would like it if I could adopt him legally to solidify the family relationship, my children, this person and myself have discussed it in depth. Is this a possibility in Arizona?
  • My landlord of the apartment complex has made everyone aware that we won't have hot water for a month and a half, and they'll take $100 off rent. Is that legal?
  • I signed a year lease starting in 2-1-12. In December of 2012. The landlord asked if I would like a new lease. I verbally agreed to 6 months. He said he would email me the new lease. He hasn't yet and I am second guessing staying. My lease is over at the end of Feb. Can I still give 30 days if no new lease has been signed yet?
  • I have been living in my apartment for almost a year now. Three months sicnce i moved in i discovered bed bugs. In May 2016 they came to exterminate. I have not seen any bed bugs til recencently. I went to the office in January 2017 and told them they i still have bed bugs in my apt. They are trying to charge me 300 for coming out to exterminate again, are they allowed to do so? What can i do about this situation and who can i talk to?
  • If my son turns 18 and is getting a settlement from an accident does that affect my benefits?
