QUESTIONS

  • I am buying a house and the tenant doesn't want to get out of the house. She doesn't have a contract, they are going month to month. and she told the landlord that she was going to move out whenever she wanted. how long would it take to get her out?
  • We need to add my name to the birth certificate of our daughter. We have my wife's divorce paperwork stating by the judge that I am the natural father. But the Office of Vital Statistics stated that a court must also include an order to add my name to the birth certificate. How do I go about accomplishing this? Thank you.
  • I have run out of funds trying to Divorce my husband. He has a much higher income than I do. Also he is currently working in China. I have had custody of our 2 kids for 2 years. I filed last year, but he fought it and won. I want something legal to protect me financially .
  • Prior to signing the current lease I have, I paid the owner directly. I signed a contract with an agent in April and now the owner claims I did not pay for Jan., Feb., or March. Now the agent is adding $2,700 for those three months. Can she add on fees to my current contract if those were fees I paid before signing with her?
  • Can I withhold my rent from my landlord if there is mold in my trailer? I noticed there was mold growing around my sons cooler in his room (a/c unit) , I notified the landlord and told him about it and he promised he would send someone on that money (it’s been 3 weeks now). My son is 9 and has to sleep in the living room because of this problem , I also recently had a baby(she’s 6 months) and would hate for her to get sick from this. What legal action can I take? Also before we moved in we were promised that they would switch out the old bathtub for a new one and new flooring but nothing.
  • My roommate and I signed a lease together. She moved all of her stuff out, while I was on vacation, yet doesn't want to cancel the lease and continue paying her rent. I am pretty sure she is going to flake out on my lease, which will therefor hurt her and I. What steps do I need to take to get this resolved in regards to suing her.
  • I have multiple questions is there an attorney who can call me or that I can call after hours?
  • My daughter has two children with her ex-boyfriend that she has lived with since 2010. He is refusing to pay child support. His name is not on the birth certificates. What is the next step? Do we need to file a petition with the court or contact DES first? I'm assuming he will have to take a paternity test. Thank you.
  • I alerted maintenance a problem in my apartment which turned out to be a broken water heater under my floor. They are now forcing me to move to another apartment within 24 hours and will not pay for any moving costs. Is that legal?
  • I have sole legal custody of my 3 kids my ex has supervised visits, I am not allowed to move 100 miles from where I did when our divorce finalized without permission. Am I allowed to take my kids on vacation out of town or state, or do I have to get permission from the court?
