So i explained to him what happened. So now i have 3 days to get out with my family. Can he do that even if i recieve mail there electricity is in my name. What can i do. I got scammed 1700
  • I'm a survivor of domestic violence and sexual assault. It's been four years since the last domestic occurred and I moved to Washington to get away from my abuser with my kids. I am wondering since it has been four years ago if there is anything that I can do now like make a police report or legal action now.
  • I helped a friend out and let her stay with me but she isn't playing rent and she isn't on my lease. How do I evict her and what kind of notice do I need to give her? Can it be written?
  • I need to file for child support but I don't know where to start
  • I own my house and rent a lot in a "over 55" community. The driveway is a poor shape and I have asked management for several years for repair. Half of the driveways in the community have been repaired, and I have been told that the rest will be done shortly. That was three months ago! There are chips and holes in the driveway making a safety issue. How can I get them to uphold their responsibility? I do not want to move and just want them to provide the maintenance they are obligated to.
  • How long does a landlord have to fix a broken air conditioner once they have written notice?
  • Can I take a leave of absence for a school year (I'm a teacher) to take care of my father according to FMLA?
  • My girlfriend and I have two children together. I would like to gain custody of them since she has been experiencing mental health issues and cannot take care of the children.  I cannot afford a lawyer and have been told I cannot leave the state without her permission and was also told since the children's birth certificates establish I am the father and that they have my last name I can relocate with them. I can't get a straight answer !
  • My landlord entered us into a lease with the knowledge that the home was INFESTED with termites. The neighbor pointed them out and told us he informed her before our occupancy. We immediately verbally requested she send a professional not only to inspect the safety of the homes structure, but to treat the problem. She ignored our request. We then turned in a written request and she immediately sent someone unannounced to spray for them. We still want an inspection. The damn things are dropping through our ceiling and our porch literally is falling apart. What can we do now?
  • I was immediately told that another tenant is coming and am supposed to come out without any notice then i told them i needed time to prepare but the new tenant started rearranging my tables putting them in one cornerin the shop i rented after delaying payment and was told i owe the landlord nothing since the new tenant had paid for extra six month, i moved out whilst he intended me to witness then continued arranging. It been two days now and i haven't gone there but am told he doing business whilist my property is there inside. I took no action because he known to be one of the wealthman
