QUESTIONS

  • My wife and I separated she stayed in the house. The house is in her name only we moved in together in October 2001. I moved out in March 2007 am I entitled to half of the proceeds from the sale of the house?
  • I recently moved out and the landlord never gave me my deposit back. I left the home in good condition the only thing he wrote on the disposition report that the carpet was dirty. Ever since we moved in we told him the carpet needed to be replace because it was worn out and you could see previous stains he never did anything about it. Now he wants to subtract that from the deposit which i think is unfair. What can I do?
  • Can a landlord put into the lease and expect a tenant to comply with broken windows not being replaced? All windows also do not have screens. Also the property is riddled with garbage, tires, glass and many other things. Please help...I really believe the landlord is wrong on this.
  • My toilet and shower are both not in working condition. Water is coming up out of the drain in my shower and my toilet ng is unable to flush. Is there a time limit for which the complex has to fix it? What do they have to do until they do fix it? What are my rights?
  • I received an eviction notice stating people reported I am not picking up after my dog, but I always do. There is another person with the same dog as me, so it may be her. I asked for proof but they have none, just the person who reported it. What is my recourse?
  • I had a boyfriend move from another state into my apartment. It has been about 5 months, since he moved in. Things are not working out between us and I have told him that I don’t want to be with him. He is not on my lease and will not leave my apartment. I have told him several times to leave and even told him he had 30 days to get out of my apartment. He is verbally abusive and scares me. How do I get him out of my home? Can I legally change the locks when he is not there?
  • even with court ordered child support why are so many absent fathers not being made accountable. if they dont get a job why dont they go to jail who enforces this action the state or the legal gaudian.
  • 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.
  • Is the cash assistance program only for child support?
  • I have been contacted by a collection agency for a debt owed. The amount owed is $226, they say they will only accept payment in full, or 2 payments of $114.33. My question is this, if I am willing to pay this, but can only make small weekly payments, are they required to accept them? What do I do if they refuse my payments that I am able to make.
