QUESTIONS

  • My ex-wife took out a protection order against my 17 year old daughter's boyfriend back in March 2011. My daughter did not wish for this but could not stop her mother. Now my daughter is 18 years old and wants to be removed from the protection order. Can she do this in a simple manner? Or does she have to hire a lawyer and go to court?
  • The father of my son has his name on the birth cirtificate and also my son has his last name. But over the last 6 months, his father has shown no real interest in wanting to see him and hasn't helped pay for any expenses. My question is, is there anyway I can get my sons last name changed to mine so his father can't decide to come back into the picture a few years from now and try to get custody?

  • A few years ago my wife co-signed on an auto loan with her friend. She gave them her contact information, but was not the primary on the account. We ran her credit report recently, and discovered that her friend has been more than 30 days late close to 80% of the time over the last couple years. This has killed my wife's credit. We spoke to the bank, and found that they have been in contact with "her", and have signed documents from "her". My wife has not been in contact with the bank at all. So, how How can we convince the bank it wasn't her they were speaking to?

  • My landlord sent an email for us to pay past due rent by a certain date. We have been unable to do so. He has now sent another notice that he has labeled "move out demand" for us to vacate the property by this Sunday, Aug 19th. Is receiving this notices via email considered proper service? Thank you!

  • I live in a mobile home park with 90 spaces. We own our homes, but pay rent for the lot. The park sold recently to a property management person who lives and works in the L.A. California area. She has not hired a manager to be on the premises.If we have any problems we need to call her telephone number in California. She has a couple who live in the park that she refers maintenance problems to. They have no authority to answer any questions about anything. We have been given a list of rules and regulations, but no one is here to see that they are adhered to. Is a manager required?
