QUESTIONS

  • Can a credit card company sell thier old receivables/ debt for a lessor amount and the new so collection company collect at the old debt rate?
  • Can a landlord charge a utilities overuse charge when you live in a weekly rental all utilities paid. And if not can you provide AZ. Statute.
  • I'm looking for some guidance regarding the AZ Real Estate Recovery Fund. I submitted a claim against the fund some time ago but it was denied for multiple reasons, all of which were inaccurate. I'd like some advice from somebody with experience with getting reimbursement from the fund. The basis of my claim is the fact that my property manager embezzled security deposits and when his scam ran its course, he committed suicide. The fund is clearly setup to help those who have been a victim of real estate fraud, but the commissioner weaseled her way out of my claim on technicalities.
  • Two weeks ago I had a discussion with my landlord and his wife about being two weeks late on my rent and would need to pay it on the 14th of November. They were kind and said that would be fine and to come in around rent time to fill out a promissory note. During that time and now his (the landlord's) wife left him because he was very abusive. Now Sunday Nov 2nd I went in to fill out the contract to pay on the 14th and the landlord said he was evicting anyone who had anything to do with her. What can I do I am a single dad with no family in AZ.
  • I have serious doubts that the house I am renting is up to code. Whom can I contact to evaluate the house for safety and to verify that it meets all applicable standards the landlord is required to meet?
  • I understand that when a divorce occurs, everything accumulated is community property. However, is a disability retirement subject to joint disbursement. My online research gives me conflicting answers. How do the courts interpret this?
  • i purchased a vehicle i signed a contract with 21% intrest on a car the bank lowered the interest rate to 18.5 but never drew up a new contract is this a legal contract or not
  • Do I need a will?
  • Mother is a minor and lives with parents. She and I have agreed to put my (father's) last name on birth certificate. Her parents are refusing. Do I have any legal rights?
