QUESTIONS

  • Can I file for bankruptcy?
  • I slipped and fell into someone when shopping at a store, at the time the person I fell into made a big deal out of it, the police were called I explained to them what happened and I was not cited now 2 months later the state picks it up and I have to go to court, can they do this and can I sue the store for slipping and falling into this person?
  • I had a DUI in 2005. I thought everything was done. In 2014 the court issued a warrant for my arrest ( I found out because they suspended my concealed weapons license ) .I called the city court and they said it was over a DUI in 2005. I went to court , and the judge said I did not do 36 hours of alcohol treatment. I had receipts for traffic school, MADD school, level 1 school . The attorney I had, when I called him, said that a retired judge was going back thru all the DUI cases because Tucson was broke and was trying to get more money from everybody. Is this legal after 9 years?
  • On the month of April the rent was sent out and i was having trouble gathering the rent money because I got layed of for covid-19, but I didn’t know that the landlord wasn’t charging any late fees I didn’t get any letter no notice, nothing I found out by a neighbored still paid it by my 5 day window. Then the last week of April I didn’t receive the rent bill no one in the parking lot did. But the landlord said she did send it out, we all know she didn’t so I waited a few days the 6 th day I get the rent with late charges but didn’t get the normal rent bill in the first place can she do that?
  • Ive been living with a woman for 15 yrs (shes still married from previous marriage) and I've asked her to leave and she will not. what are my rights - I am owner of the home we are living in and shes not working. Its a volatile relationship and concerned about it. what can I legally do to evict this person
  • Have Lived at the same complex for the past 3 years. The complex has new owners for the past several months. Old management used to give me (at my request) a copy of my check with the stamp and /or signature of received. Deadline to pay the rent is the 3rd of each month. Now the new management refuses to hand me a receipt before the 4th of the month. My question is, where is the proof that I handed the check to them in time to avoid late fees? There lot of rumors among neighbors that they are trying to scare people out to renovate more units and raise the rent. What are my rights? Thank you.
  • If I owned my house before getting married, can I sell it before we're divorced without having to split the money I make from selling it?
  • In the event an annulment was granted does the the wife have the option to keep the husbands last name even if he requested she not keep it?
  • can my landlord/property manager enter my gated back yard without proper notice. i have small children who play out in the backyard and feel that we should have our privacy when in our home but he just comes over when ever he feels like it. he does not enter the house just the yard in the lease it says that we as the tenants are responsible for maintenance in the front and back yard so there is really no reason for him to be there, he also sprays weed poison with out telling us is any of this legal.
  • My mom and dad were seperated for many years but still married. She passed away. Her will was changed not long before she died making the man she lives with the beneficiary. Isn't my dad still entitled to her estate, or a percentage of it if still legally married
