  • "When parents are unmarried and no order has been entered to establish parental rights, the biological father has no legal right to either custody or parenting time until paternity is established." I read this in a question on the website and I was wondering if the child has the fathers last name, does it still mean they have no legal rights until official paternity has been established?
  • Can my landlord shut off the water to my apartment for maintenance without giving me any notice? Also, is it acceptable that this is happening a couple times a week for a couple of months now?
