QUESTIONS

  • How do they calculate amount of child support one pays
  • I have permanent guardianship of my granddaughter since 2000 she is now 13. She went for her first time out of state to see her mother for 2 weeks. When the visit was almost up she sent a message that she is not sending her back and is filing some papers and states that i can call and talk to her after thats all done. What rights does she have? How do i go about having my daughter send her back home? I researched and no papers have been filed here.can she file in that state to terminate guardianship?
  • PP = Parenting Plan CS = Child Support My PP/CS was based on my son living with my ex and being with me on weekends, holidays & school breaks. I agreed to pay her triple CS for 24 months. My PP/CS has yet to be signed off by a judge. My ex has now left my son in my care mon-fri. & attending school in my area. Can I request to rescind the PP /CS agreement based on the fact she is not following the parenting plan submitted? She is of the opinion that since it is essentially a 50/50 parenting plan she is still entitled to the triple CS amount even though she is not following the PP plan.
  • We are told a new law became effective in Jan. which requires changes to the Trust having to do with notifying beneficiaries every year of the amount of the estate and their inheritance. Is it true? The lawyer wants the full price of the trust to amend it. Can I find the law on the Internet? Is it boilerplate and easily done without using that same lawyer? Please direct me. Thank you.
  • Do you have to show up to court? I'm not disputing the eviction. I just want to know how many days I have to move and the papers are not 100% clear. The court is further than I thought and would rather not waste the money in gas to go if it's really not necessary.
  • What if a parent says his employer has deducted the support, but it has not been received for some time and is in arrears?
  • What are my rights if my boyfriend passed away but his divorce is not final and we have three minor children?
  • I found out when I was in my twenties that the father on my birth certificate is not my biological father. How can I get that corrected?, The man on my birth cert is deceased.
  • If my car is repossessed, due to non-pmyt, will I still have to pay for the car?
  • My ex fience left me for another girl when I was 8 month's pregnant, he showed up the day I was induced and left 2 hour's after our son was born never signing the birth certificate or meeting me after to sign papers he always had an excuse, he finally told me because I was having so much trouble getting Dr appointments and other help because our baby had no last name he told me to give him my last name, so I did he does not have his father's last name. Our son is almost 11 month's old now he wants to see him and get paternity test can I refuse visitation since he didn't want to see him before?
