QUESTIONS

  • Can my former spouse elect to receive less than her previously awarded share of my military retirement in a modification?
  • Can I modify a joint custody order to a sole custody? The father is not complying with his obligations. He has sinced moved, and has little or no contact with the boys in months.
  • I was working as a health care worker and a patient didn't trust me because i was a new employee. So he made a big deal of everything making the environment difficult. I dont know whati did but he complained. My boss could have switched us out but he sent me back. He then says he could fire me and get my license took. I later find out that I resigned. I was an on call employee and he just stopped calling me in. No write ups, nothing. So i get a letter in the mail saying I quit. Do i have a case?
  • What do we as landlords need to include in an eviction letter? 
  • Clicked to renew my lease and got an email accepting that request. Went to log on to the website to sign the new lease and it was not available. Informed the apartment management and received an email saying they would write it up and send it, however I still have not received anything. Can they for some reason not renew my lease after the initial acceptance? My current lease is up at the end of June, if I did not want to renew I would have had to give 60 days written notice. Can they give me less than I am required to give them if they do not renew for some reason?
  • Lease states landlord may terminate lease for any reason with 45 or 60 days notice? It also states tenant can terminate with 60 days notice but owe penalties and breach of contract. Is that legal in Arizona ?
  • My son is enrolled and attending Kindergarten near my home. Fathers now wants to change his school for first grade for 2017-2018. I feel our son will be established in this school with classmates etc he knows. I dont think it would be in the best interest to change schools to a half way point like fathers wants. And my daughter will be attending preschool at the school as well next year and their daycare is also down the street from school and they pick up and drop off children. My son has been at this daycare since he was 2 years old and these children attend his kindergarten class as well. Please let me know what i can do?
  • If I have accrued sick time and I am having to take off the rest of my work day due to my illness. Is my job able to deny that time?
  • I currently have joint custody of my children in which I have them 50% of the time. My ex-wife and I do not agree on which schools our children should attend, and our paperwork states that neither of us can make the final decision. An attorney had told me that if we have tried mediation with conciliation services (which we have tried), then the next step would be to file a motion for school determination. My question is: how do you go about doing that? I do not see forms that seem to pertain to this. Thanks!
  • My disabled mother and i moved into my girlfriends dads house with her. We (girlfriend and myself and mother) have no rental agreement but pay ontime every month. We also paid to have the house modified for my moms disability. I am not abusive, have never had the authorities called for anything. We had a disagreement now she is trying to evict us by March 1st. What can I do?
