QUESTIONS

  • We recently (7/29/14) lost our home to foreclosure, the question I have is that when we initially bought our home in Oct. 2004 the purchase price was $125,500.00 with a 3 yr arm. we then refinanced to get a fixed interest rate and got some cash to pay off debt, the refi amt was $171,000.00 that was about 5 or 6 yrs ago and now fast forward to 2014 I get a statement from the bank saying we owe $224,600+ thousand dollars on the home, how does my debt increase to that amount and is this legal?
  • My son is 5 years old, his father is on the birth certificate. He has never lived with the father, he went to prison 2 weeks after he was born and has been in and out since then, What legal rights does he have?? And what would I need to do to gain soul custody? I have no contact with him.
  • My son got custody of his two boys about three years ago before that we had them for a year. There mom just left. If I want to be the guardian in case something happened to my son. Would there mom have a say so on this. She doesn't do anything for them. She is not allowed to see them. If she does see them her mom has to be there. Which is maybe once every two three months.
  • Landlord hung a 10 day notice on my door today dated 7 days ago.That is not legal is it?
  • My younger sister who is on rental agreement is a diabetic & in end stage of renal failure. I have friend stay with her while I work 4pm-4am. Can park manager give 7 day notice to make friend leave & kick me out in 60 if I refuse to do what he wants & leave my dieing sister alone?
  • What does 2nd degree trafficing stolen property mean?
  • I live in a RV park and the landlords have constantly shut off water without notice sometimes for days and have came on to my lot without notice and been rude and complaining that I complain too much and to go buy my own water. I have stage 4 cancer and am being bullied and denied basic water for showering cleaning cooking using my restroom the list keeps going what can I do?
  • My husband and I own a home and have rented out a room to a man under a month to month lease. After 8 months we have decided that this is no longer what we want and have served him his 30 day notice to vacate. During this period he has moved his girlfriend in who never leaves our home even when he is at work and stays the night every night for the past 2 weeks. We clearly have it stated in the lease that the tenant shall not have overnight guests for more than 2 nights in a one week period. Can I call the cops and have her escorted off our property?
  • Where can I find legal help with a trustee sale or forecloser
  • I had previously filled out paperwork to request a modification hearing. A hearing was scheduled but I would like to withdraw that request at this time. When I requested this I was unemployed and unable to pay, but I am now employed and paying as agreed, so I no longer need this modification. Is it possible to cancel this request and court hearing since I'm the one that requested this modification?
