QUESTIONS

  • Will a family member in mexico be able to apply for a temporary permit/visa to come visit their dying mother?
  • I was curious as to what the law is regarding not being under any signed lease for renting a house. The landlord is causing issues and I'd like to vacate without notice. Thank you,
  • what is reasonable amounts air-conditioning or cooling in rental apartments in Tucson? My apartment (and those of neighbors) do not get below 80 degrees in summer. If they advertized air conditioning, it 80 degrees considered ccompliance?
  • My child's mother did not put me on the birth certificate. I have had a hostile relationship with her and was forced to give 100% of my paycheck just to see my daughter the first 3 years, leaving me with no room to pay legal fees to establish paternity and support. She also has not filed for support. I have not been in contact with the mother in 3 years nor has she been in contact with me. At this point, I would like to sever my parental rights even though I am not legally established as the father so I can move on with my life. Is this possible?
  • My divorce was settled on May 20, 2009. We have 50/50 custody of our 13 year old son. No child support was assigned because we both were working and made similar incomes. I lost my job on June 20, 2009 would I be able to get child support from my x-husband with the 50/50 custody until I find another job?
  • My ex husband recently passed away and his only children were named sole beneficiaries in the divorce decree(irrevocable).The decree states that he was to maintain a policy through his employer but his widow insists he only had one policy that she purchased and maintained through AFLACK. How can my children find out if they are entitled to any monies from this or any other policy that could be hidden. His widow insists that she has nothing and that he had no will
  • I am renting to own a mobile home in Sahuarita Az The owners drew up a rent to own lease paperwork that says they are selling the trailer to me as is no warranty is implied or expressed I was just trying to find out because I have an air conditioning that stopped working are they still responsible or am I responsible for repairs I do not own trailer yet
  • My landlord has sold the house I am renting. I have 10 months left on the lease. The new home-owner is not buying the house as "occupied". I have agreed to move out. Do the old homeowners owe me any sort of compensation because they broke the lease (comparable to what I would owe if I were the one breaking the lease)? I had about 1 weeks notice. Thanks!
  • Are they any forms of assistance to help compensate a person while they are on unpaid FMLA status?
