QUESTIONS

  • Can I have my divorce finalized before I give birth if I'm pregnant?
  • I live with my boyfriend we are not married and he has no intention of getting married. He intends on being involved in our, as he calls it “illegitimate child’s birth” and I would prefer to use my last name for our child. He disagrees and wants to use his last name. I have a child from a previous marriage and I find it difficult with us having different last names over the years with insurance and doctors appointments, just frustrating. Do I have to use our child’s father’s last name for this child?
  • The landlord says water is included in the rent. I have a two bed room and he has decided to increase the rent because I am getting a roommate to afford the initial increase he has already made. I have a two bed room apartment and have lived alone for a year, one of the bedrooms are empty and he wants to raise the rent stating that having two people living in a two bed room means more water use. Do I have any rights here? I was paying $600.00, he raised the rent to $750.00 because he is the NEW owner and says it is necessary. Now he says he will raise it again.
  • I live out of the US but I have a misdemeanor warrant for my arrest in Yuma County. I want to quash the warrant so that I can freely pass into the country and appear before the court to address the charges on my own account. Is there a way to go about this by doing it myself?
  • I'm getting suid for $just over 20k, so the case has been assigned to Superior Court. I know I have to file an Answer within 20 days. My question is....How do I file counter suit? Is there someonewhere that offers legal help at a decent rate? Or a website that can show me how to do it? Thanks

  • If you are approved for kinship benefits how much money do you get.
  • I filed in small claims for the return of my rental deposit. I named the home owner as defendant and responded with a copy of the lease which names someone else as the landlord. I don't want to wait for a court date. How can I "cancel" this action and file a claim on the landlord on the rental agreement?
  • I have been accepted to job corps a program that pays for everything for me to study and on the job training. the only state that allows me to take my 7 month child with me is North Dakota. The father of my child hasnt been in her life these last three months even when i call him and text him he just ignores me. He is on the birth certificate but isnt helping me with any child expenses and doesnt even want to see her. He said it was okay for me to take her before but he got mad one day and said i couldnt. Their is no papers set down in court either.
