QUESTIONS

  • A few days before I turned 18, my adopted family of 4 years kicked me out and dropped me off at my birth mothers house. (Who is not capable of taking care of me) they didn't even give me a quarter of my belongings and I also didn't receive any of my documents (I.e birth certificate, social security card, etc) this has caused me many problems in the year since dealing with trying to get a car, registering for college and other things. In order to get new documents, I need to have other documents and I have none. Is there something I can legally do?
  • Hi I am going through a bad break up of 7 years.My ex will not let me have my belongings.I have went to the home with police officers and he still won't let me in.My name is not on the house.How can I retrieve my belongings?

  • Husband passed away February 2013, can no longer afford to pay mortgage and other bills on my own. What do I need to do to file for Bankruptcy???? Please reply. Thank you.
  • I am asking for my 89-year-old parents who live in a senior independent living facility in Tucson. They are coming up on a lease renewal in mid June, however, we are planning to move them to another Senior independent living facility in Sept or October to get them closer to me, as I am their primary caregiver. Can they get out of this new lease without penalty?
  • I gave my 30 day notice on April 1st stating that I would not be renewing my lease at the end of May. I also informed the office that I'm moving out on May 8th but I'm paying rent for the whole month of May. I requested a move out inspection Friday May 8th after I take all my belongings out. I was told by the Secretary that the manager does move out inspections when he feels like it. I am unable to return for a move out inspection because I am starting a job in another town. My question is from what date do I begin counting the 14 days for my security deposit to be returned?
  • I was arrested at a friends mobile home on a misdemeanor warrant. I went without a hassle or drama. The charge was disorderly conduct. I was out in 14 days, went back to the park where coincidentally i do not live, was told there was no problem with me being there. The kicker is that my friends, a couple of about 70 years old are now getting evicted because of it. Im beside myself. It is not right. Id willingly have them ban me from the park if my friends would not get evicted. Is there no hope for them ?
  • Own home, 22 years lot renter, eviction granted, stay negotiated, payment plan for court cost granted but noticed on bottom it says if we can not show proof of reinstatement, they can process with writ, manager has previous lease and said she would change the 1 yr. to 6 mo. Which was our new agreement but instead has added more fees and a few other things that don't fall under law and wants me to sign it before she gives it back which now I haven't the proof that she reinstated me..., what do I do? Lease is not originally up till Jan'
  • If a court case was "terminated" and i never had to show up at court, can another jurisdiction bring it back up almost 2 years later?
