QUESTIONS

  • My ex-husband was ordered to pay child support to me when we divorced in 2003. The state this was issued in was Nevada. Since then, we had both relocated individually to California, and now I am currently residing in Arizona since 09/07. Unfortunately, the payments were made by personal check, if at all, and now I do not know where he lives or what his telephone number is. Is there any way to collect child support now for my 2 children?
  • I work in the medical field. Is a pregnant minor considered emancipated when obtaining medical consent? For example, for labor epidural placement? I didn't realize this varied state to state.
  • I have a 1 year old child. Her father went to prison when she was 2 months old. Now his mother is trying to get visitation with my daughter. Were set to go to trial in April. I'm not sure exactly what to do. I don't have a lawyer and I'm a full time single parent . I can't afford a lawyer. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do or file. I don't understand the terms or the paperwork at all. Can she get visitation if I don't get a lawyer or miss file the information?
  • I put in my thirty day notice because of water being shut off without notice, fire extinguisher was not provided and fire department had to come, mold, mushroom growing in floor board, drug dealer living downstairs. they are aware of all these things. What are my rights in all this? Thanks.
  • Hello. I am in a second marriage. Our investments and home are in a trust with my husband. But I have received some money as an inheritance. Can I put this is a separate savings in my name only, with my sons as beneficiaries?
  • My partner has locked me out of our company, and is using a lawyer to try to force me to sign over my share of our company. She has made up allegation of misappropriation without proof, and without due process is stealing the company from me. The idea of the company is entirely mine, all the work was done and/or organized by me, and all supplies and furnishing we procured by me... with a week left before opening, she has locked me out, emptied the bank accounts, and is letting my family starve while she tries to finish without me. What do I do?
  • I moved out of an apt without having a walk through but I took several pictures. Two weeks later I received a letter stating they were keeping my pet deposit and that I owed them an additional amount of money. I disagree with some of the charges they have. How can I dispute this and what is my time limit? They have given me 30 days to pay before sending to collections. Also, can the landlord charge for painting the interior? I even filled in any holes made from hanging pictures. Don't they have to paint anyway?
  • our children were taken from us by cps where can we find free legal representation in Tucson, Az.
  • Can my landlord evict me after renting fir one eeek on a 6 month lease
  • I gave revocable guardianship to my mom when I moved out of state so the kids could finish that school year and I started my new job. Now that I have petitioned to revoke guardianship, she is suing me for custody. I am so far and not sure how to handle this.
