QUESTIONS

  • A windstorm took out several sections of the roof and about 50 feet of the brick wall that surrounds the backyard of the house I'm renting. How long dose the landlord have to fix everything? If it rains I'm worried that there will be damage to my property in the house and with the fence down that my pets are going to get out or attacked by wild animals.
  • I currently pay child support for three children, however, as of January one of the children will be living full time with me. I need to do a modification, but am confused as to how to do it, because the online form doesn't really have a space for each childs parenting time.
  • Can a caregiver take money and valuables from their elderly clients and can you provide legal precedents for same? Also does this law also apply to power of attorney?
  • I purchased an ET center from a local store. I signed a paper that said no refunds and exchanges are per their approval. I asked them to place this furniture on hold for a least a month as our home was being rebuilt from a fire. Twelve days later I called them and advised I no longer wanted the furniture and they have refused to credit my credit card due to the paper I signed. Is this legal for them to say no refunds on furniture I never got?
  • Can my landlord charge me for water, electric, or other utility bills that the property manager neglected to charge for in previous months? I am now being charged for utilities that were billed 2, 3, 4, and even 5 months ago. For instance, a bill came to them in May, which they neglected to post to our account, and they are now charging me for in September.
  • I am alone in the whole world. It is just my senior dog, and I, who is a senior as well. How can I plan ahead, since I can not afford paying for a living will, and what is going to happen when I die being by myself? Thank you.
  • how can i change last name to my dauther im not his blood father but i have her sends she was 1 year old
  • I have a walmart discover card that even if i pay the minimum payment, they will tack on a late fee then add the balance and fees together to get the interest payment. My card was over the limit and I did pay that amount, yet they still added another late fee. They have charged over 200 dollars in fees. This is b/s, they get me one way or the other. Seems like double dipping to me.
  • I agreed to purchase a home I believed was owned free and clear by the owner with owner financing. I later learned the owner did not own the home free and clear, and when costly repairs come up he refused to help defray the costs. Was I protected under the tenant landlord act and can he foreclose as he is threatening? I have already moved out and found a new place to live.
  • How do I take care of my daughters estate, since she did not have a will, nor life insurance and was living under the poverty level?
