QUESTIONS

  • I need guardianship for grdkids. I don't know how to do it are where to go.
  • If my partner and I were never legally married and he was not in my daughters life for 3 years sense her birth and never signed the birth certificate can he try to get custody or joint custody? He has also never paid child support.
  • We have 50/50 joint custody and joint decision making. Can one parent refuse to let the other parent be the first option of watching their own children?
  • My co-leasors are moving back to Montana at the end of this month and our lease does not expire until May. What are the ramifications of ending the lease early?
  • Is it legal for the property manager to charge potential tenants an application fee then deny them from taking over the lease and then use the application fees or credit a tenants account?
  • When my mother was living she put my sister's name on my decease fathers money and now she has passed. What should be done with the money my sister has. Shall if be divided among the siblings?
  • My boyfriend and I bought a house together in December 2018, we’re going through a break up now and I need help figuring out what I need to do regarding the house.
  • I notified my landlord that our AC was out the first week of May via text. He responded via text that he was exploring options. We’re going on 3 months now without air conditioning. Can I withhold rent until he fixes it?
  • In early February, my spouse and I received a Notice of Non-Renewal of Lease without reason. We were given until March 31st to turn in the keys & pay March's rent. Our uniy has many health and safety issues which the property management company continues to ignore. This may or may not be as the repairs cannot be done if we still occupy the unit.We could not make the rent for March. With no option to stay, finding a new one with the money to put down was crucial. My spouse works an 'Essential' job in unsanitary conditions-in fear of contracting covid-19. Can we defend more time when its safe?
  • I was raped on the premises and they do not want to let me out of my lease. I am 8 days late as of august 1st 2014. I do not want to give them another cent and they told me they are filing papers in court august 10th. What can I do?
