QUESTIONS

  • I got divorced and in the decree it did not grant me permission to change my name. I took the decree to the Soc Sec office and the still processed it. I have a new Soc card and drivers license with my maiden name. But keep having trouble as it was never officially changed in the courts. Do I have to file for a name change and pay the fee or is there a way to add it into the decree so I can officially go back to my maiden name?
  • My son just rented an apartment in a nice complex. He was supposed to move in on a Monday, when roaches were found in the apartment. They sprayed right before he was to move in, but today, four days later, there are baby roaches everywhere. They are supposed to fumigate the complex on Friday, but he's concerned. Can he break the lease if the fumigation fails to get rid of the roaches? He's put out ranch traps all week, and the baby roaches are multiplying.

  • My ex girlfriend stole one of my most value clothes. I want her to give them back or pay me for it. 5 brand new Luxury Perry Ellis leather jackets. 16 brand new Luxury Perry Ellis dress shirts. Price is around $5,839.84 to $ 6,039.84 not taxes included. On 08/04/2013 she broke and deformed my nose, (I got pics). On 05/22/2012 she stubbed a fork 4 times on the left side of my upper back, (I got pics). She forced me to quit my job at the laser company. She told me she knew about business and she will make my own laser company. "She didn't don't anything about it and I was having problems with my life. On 08/16/2013 the owner of the laser company that I was working with, texted me offering me my job back and she texted him behind my back telling him I wasn't available and thanks for thinking of me. I realized that the next day. On 03/12/2016 I told her to don't get the molding parts for her car at Honda dealer under my company's name Marco Motors. I told her I wasn't giving the authorization to buy it and she didn't care, "She bought it". I called the dealer to confirm. And much more like for example hit me many times my private part when I was driving, etc.
  • We are preparing to sign a lease. The home was marketed as having a 'large fenced yard for kids and pets." Upon inspection, this 'fenced yard' has one full side of a metal fence completely fallen over, with metal sticking up, posing a safety hazard and not "fenced" for our dogs to be able to safely access the yard. The property mgmt. company said that they're aware of this, but the owner wants to focus on working on the house and not fence at this time. She said we can do something temporary (at our own expense) in the meantime, and possibly discuss this again in the future. Is this legal?
  • I have already signed my leasing agreement. On the day of move in i was given a different move in fee without being notified before hand. I was not allowed to move in unless i paid that fee which was not apart of my leasing agreement. Is that a breach of leasing agreement? Should I haven still been able to move in that day?
