  • I gave my ex verbal notice of my relocation with my 4 year old, 2 mos prior to the relocation. He was receptive and understood my reasoning. I sent a letter cert. mail and it was returned to me because he failed to pick it up. So I then hired a process server, which was successful. Its now 4 days before my moving date and he has served me w/ a summons to establish parenting time and custody. My position at work has already been filled and I'm to be out of my apartment by the 5th. Am i obligated to stay in the state now? Or can i temporarily relocate?
  • My boss has laid me off because I will need to go on maternity leave in February. I have him recorded saying so. It's a small office with only 4 employees. He waited until I came back from vacation to tell me I can't come back because he hired someone else since I'll need to take off once the baby is here. Is there anything that can be done?
  • I have been separated from my ex for over 10 years. We tried to get a divorce in 2011 but because he lived in California and I lived in Atizona it got squashed. I now dont know where he is, last I heard he was living in different hotels in California. How do I go about getting a divorce if I dont know where he is at? And dont have a phone number for him. He doesnt communicate with me or my son at all.
  • I am married but had a child with a boyfriend. Is the boyfriend obligated to pay child support even though I am considered married to someone else? My boyfriend signed the birth certificate.
  • Does one have to vacate premises immediately when served papers by sheriff. Rent has never been late. Got caught smoking in nonsmoking apartmrnt
  • Under what legal authority does the father (never married) of my 6 year old, who has been deemed unsuitable for joint custody & has yet been able to abide by basic court appointed supervised visitation guidelines, have to continually bring me to court with neglectful parenting allegations, which are always dropped &, coincidentally, decided that he is the perpetrator in each case? Furthermore, as victim to his court declared domestic abuse (physical/metal), how is it that I am being required to be in contact with the perpetrating father, or at risk of losing my son due to parental alienation?
  • Our insurance was cancelled for our rental unit. The carport needs to be repaired. The tenant has two cars that are broken under the carport. Legally he's allowed to have these cars on the property. He has been asked in writing to remove them and why and has not. What can we do?
