QUESTIONS

  • I have a 22 month old daughter and I am 7 months pregnant with my son. My children have the same father and we are not married. He was incarcerated for the first 10 months of our daughter's life and recently went back to jail in January. He is looking at 6-8 years but possibly taking a plea agreement for 3-5 years. He is a drug addict that has been in and out of treatment for years. Can I file abandonment on him since he is incarcerated, has a long history of drug usage and multiple felonies?
  • My Grandson and his parents went to California to visit other Grandparents. Both his parents decided to go to rehab. Grandpa filed for guardianship. Mom left rehab after a week and moved in with a friend and continued to use. Dad stayed in rehab for 60 days and came back to Arizona to get a job and a place to live for him and his son. Now he wants to bring his son home. Mom and Dad are not married , Dad is not on Birth Cert, But child does have Dads last name. He has been in California for a total of 6 months. How do I get custody of my almost 3 year old son?
  • My wife wants a divorce. Mainly to get my name and responsibility off of her. Is there a quick way to do this?
  • Is there an attorney in Prescott that can help me complete a divorce that was filed one year ago, by a paralegal provided through U.S.Vets in Prescott.
  • I'm buying a mobile home in a mobile home park. It has been determined that there is a grounds problems causing sewer and waste to leak from beneath my unit. What are the responsibilities of the mobile park owner/landlord to rectify this problem?
  • i live in an senior apt complex. My neighbor died next door to me it was the end of the month the apt manager when the kids came to move the furniture out was given paperwork stating they now owed next month rent and charges which totaled 1200 the rent was 565.00. The manager presented it in a hostile manner. The kids didnt have the money to bury their parent let alone pay this bill and the reason for the bill in the first place? Because a proper 30 day notice wasnt given. How the hell are you suppose to give a notice when you have dropped dead literally. Is that legal?
  • I live in Phoenix & filed our divorce in AZ. My husband is going on medical disability & lives in CA. He is turning his pension into the disability. We have been married 19 years and the judge that I saw at my first hearing wants me to check the pension amount so I receive my correct amount. I have a request for $850.00 in spousal support but I would like to lower it to $450.00 because he is going on disability. I completed the decree with a paralegal. Can I change the decree myself to lower the amount of spousal support before my next default hearing?
  • In a same sex relationship, if power of attorney is given, does that allow FMLA benefits?
  • I am renting a apt. that has a stove and refrigerator. The refrigerator quit working. Who is responsible for replacing it? Landlord or tenant?
  • My ex and I are not a couple. But we are raising our children together. Can I still get child support from him if he is never there to help raise our kids.
