  • Can I be evicted or forced to move to another apartment for complaining to management about a roommate, who is on a separate lease, who daily raises the volume on her audio device in her bedroom to a level that I can hear it in my bedroom, with both bedroom doors closed, and where I cannot be on the telephone because the other party cannot hear me over her music?
  • My family and I had moved into our new home after paying six months in advance and signing our lease . One and half months into being our home , the sheriffs arrived at our door saying that they had put warning's on our house, though we never saw any . Conveniently, our landlord was nowhere to be found . What agency will help us get into A home and help with a couple month's rent?
  • Is a dept. collection company allowed to garnish my disability income
  • Was not married when i applied for ahccs now that i am married what documents do i need to take to ahccs?
  • My ex & I were together for 5 years, he signed acknowledgment of paternity when our daughter was born. We split up when she was 2 (she is 4 now), he has been paying child support for 5 months and was ordered to pay $17k arrears. He consented to step parent adoption before child support was ordered. The adoption will be final 6/1/11. Recently he started threatening to take me to court for paternity, can he?
  • I am the mother to a 10 yr old whose biological father is absent and my ex and I are in agreement that we want my ex to have equal joint custody and we dont know how to do this. What are the steps we need t take? Previously I had all the information but this has since expired.
  • My teenage daughter and I were both arrest for domestic violence and both of us were prosecuted. Same case yet we were both identified as defendants which very effectively eliminated any accountability especially by the courts to address "Victim's Rights" at all. The words "dominate aggressor" does not exist , at least not in the statues in AZ. So my question is: How do the courts justify this? Is this ethical? Every justification so far has been absolutely absurd. Have you thought this through at all? Obviously: no victim, double fees, more income, more DV programs as Dual arrests increase
  • My boyfriend and I been in relationship since 2009 we has 1 kid and she is 20 months. My boyfriend passed away just last week. I know still and grief but thinking about my daughter future made me to act ASAP I think I need to take care of my daughter's inheritance. Because I don’t feel my boyfriend family is like us. I want to know if this is possible will happen the following question: 1 – Can I open or intervene in probate of my boyfriend's estate? 2 – Can I file a child support from my boyfriend estate? 3 - Do I might need to file a claim as a creditor?
  • I am checking if there's any way to have my record expunged? I committed a felony in oct. 2010 and are having trouble getting hired at good jobs. it happened in california but i moved to arizona sep of 2015. I've been clean and even completed college courses. can someone point me in right direction? i don't understand how someone can still be held accountable after so long.
