QUESTIONS

  • My husband and i are still married i never wanted a divorce. He has an alcohol addiction and one day decided to leave and ignore me. Its been a month since he has seen his child. And he only texts my sons cell phone. He only showed up at my mothers house with the police to take my vehicle away to which he was unsuccessful in doing. Then another long period of silence. What are my options, entitlements and chances of Custody if he tries to take me to court?
  • I am trying to get a contact number for the clearinghouse. I am retired military my ex wife qualifies for 42.5% of my military pay. When we the divorce was final my lawyers had the spousal maintenance taken out of my military pay instead of my civilian pay that was corrected this month now they are taking money out of my civilian pay but no one sent anything to DFAS so they are still paying her 1000 dollars a month and they are also taking 1000 from my civilian pay the court order says tha I will pay 1000 dollars a month spousal maintenance and she gets 42.5 percent of my retirement not 2000
  • If I use a firearm in self defense and it is found my the authorities to be justifiable within the state laws of Arizona, am I immune from civil prosecution by the offender and/or his relatives?
  • I was recently evicted out of my apartment and went to court for none payment for rent but we tried to pay the apartment the day before the court hearing and several other timer the rent but they wouldnt accept the money and they change my locks on my door and ive tried to get ahold of them and they wont answer the phones and me and my 11year old cannot get our things and they took the curtains down and everbody can see all my stuff how can i get it
  • Are there penalties assessed for landlords who do not file a Satisfaction of Judgment when the Judgment has, in fact, been satisfied?
  • One year lease ended, converting to month to month lease, per provision in original lease. Landlord now says they want either a $300 fee to write a new lease or add a monthly $50 fee if month to month. There is nothing stated in original lease that either of these fees would be applied after the initial year ended. Is this legal?
  • My granddaughter and her boyfriend moved into my house after she had her baby they broke up and my granddaughter moved back in with her parents but the exboyfriend refuses to leave my house What do I do??
  • I rent a house and the contract will expired on 01/31/2020. On 01/03/2020 I gave the tenants a notice to NOT renew the lease agreement and advised them to have the property vacated by 02/05/2020. The tenants now said they don't wanna moved out because they have been paying the rent and I will caused them changes and stress to their kids... what should I do? I need to sell that house. Am I doing this wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
  • My kids are not liking the current visitation - 5/2/2/5. If I change to only seeing the kids on the weekends, the extra child support may be too much. My Ex said she is ok with asking me to pay $461/mo (up from 211/mo), which I can handle, but it looks like the law says that just because my Ex and I agreed on this does not mean the Judge can or will approve - it looks like he needs a compelling reason why the "guidelines" should not be followed. Will the judge ok our agreement, or insist the guideline be followed?
  • I have a person who lives on my property without lease. We started to have a relationship. It has now involved the police and domestic violence. The police will not arrest this person and I have called them several times after physical confritations they say his word against mine no witnesses. I want him gone evicted or something. I can't seem to stop the police from telling him that he has tenant rights. He has caused multiple damages to my house and my property outside. He has taken my keys and locked me out of my house etc. What do I do?
