QUESTIONS

  • I need to terminate a year lease because I lost my job and cannot afford to pay rent. Also my Mom had signed a paper saying she would help me with rent which she can no longer do.
  • Over the past few months my apartment has been having serious plumbing issues. I have sewage coming up into my tub and when it is really backed up I cannot even flush the toilet. I am also unable to use my washer or shower due to the backup. My landlord who rents two apartments is taking his time handling the problem and refuses to use professionals to make the repairs and refuses to rent us a hotel. I read that the next step is to call the health department. Would that only make the problem worse. Is my landlord able to evict me in retaliation. My lease is good up to January.
  • if a woman and her boyfriend have been living together for four and a half years in the man's house can he just put her outpack up all of her belongings in the house and take them to another county and drop them off in a non relative to eithers yard without permission and lock her out of the house for her to be homeless does she have the right to stay in the house too
  • what if I don't agree the temporary orders from a judge? How can I get a different judge if I feel the judge I have is being biased
  • Can the mobile home park have rules that contradict the landlord tenant act? I own my mobile home, in ch33 it says that a guest cannot be charged for until they stay more than 14 consecutive days in a given moth and then charged $1 per day. The landlord gave me an eviction notice and my friends have only stayed 10 daus. Also, am i obligated to tell the landlord the name of every person who stays the night? She is saying they have the right to know and approve of all guests that stay 3 nights. Ch33 does not support that.
  • I have been in a domestic violence situation for 9 years. We had 3 kids out of wedlock and later on married. He is on the birth certificate but there is no court custody in place. He is also on the child abuse and neglect registry for failing to supervise my daughter properly and has domestic violence charges on his record, I was the victim. Can I relocate to another state with our children legally and not tell him?
  • how can i find out if the lien has been perfected on my vehicle title ?
  • I am separated but not legally divorced from my wife yet. I am trying to see my two daughters but their mother will not let me see them what can I do if there is no court order placed an order to see my daughters as soon as possible.
  • Recently signed a lease on an apartment, upon moving in found that there is no heat in the unit, even though is AZ, it gets cold at night in the winter. Is a landlord required to provide heat in a unit?
  • If I plan to apply for my birth certificate in person but do not have any sort of issued picture I.D (which is actually why I need my birth certificate) What else would I provide?
