QUESTIONS

  • Am I allowed to take my children on vacation out of state or do I need to ask the court?
  • How long does it take for you to receive your benefits if your case has been expedited?
  • Can a parent force an 18 year-old to leave their home?
  • The mother of my 3 year old child was killed in a car accident recently. Paternity was established at the hospital when my child was born . Up until her death we worked out custody, child support and parenting time without having to go through the courts. She had unofficial "custody", because my child was with her when she died, CPS investigated and informs me that since it appears that mother was the custodial parent, that I need to establish custody through the courts. Can someone make sense of why I would need to establish custody, per CPS
  • my ex wife and i have agreed that the child she concieved is her boy friends we took a home paternity kit now since we all agree on this is there a form we can just fill out without any DNA testing just to get it over with so he can get on the birth certificate
  • What is the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)?
  • I am behind $8000.00 dollars on my mortgage. I know they will send a foreclosure notice soon. I have been struggling due to having a medical issue both my wife and myself (Heart Attack). Is there away to keep my home from foreclosure with a a program available to me? I am still working and my wife cannot find employment in Kingman as it is a small town.I have had to file ch-13 and I am still making payments to the court trustee monthly.
  • I paid rent late. Landlord started eviction process. On day of court I didn't know I had to go instead I went to the bank and paid rent, lates fees, court costs, attny fees put into landlords bank account. But as I was not at court judgement was issued. Moved out the end of the month paid in fulleverything But the judgements are stillon my record. HOW DO I GET A JUDGEMENT REMOVED?
  • My mother was given guardianship of my children when I was incarcerated. I've been out for over 2 years now. She has not allowed me to see my kids. I had a notarized statement giving custody to their dad, the judge did not accept it. Instead he accepted a letter I wrote to my sister while in county jail. How do I go about getting my kids back or visitation when I.can't afford it. To me this was all done wrong. And she wants child support when I can't see my kids.  
  • So one of my good friends is a felon for drug charges. He is currently on probation. My issue is I give him rides to help him get on his feet. I have also allowed him to stay at my house when things get bad with his family. Does him being in my car or house allow the police to search it without probable cause? I am sometimes in Scottsdale or phoenix too. Do the laws change there? I believe I should be entitled to basic constitutional rights, but does being with a felon remove my rights?
