My ex lives 6 hrs away and I have been staying with her, but it is causing too much drama. And now I don’t want to stay with her, but I don’t want to give up my visitation time with my kids.
Sit down with a child custody attorney to discuss your situation. We cannot answer your question here because we don't have enough information. You may need to take some form of legal action to get where you want to be.
You mis-posted your question as being one dealing with GA law. Still, your question is one that any attorney anywhere could answer. A person who has reached the age of 18 is NO longer a child. That person would be an ADULT. An adult can move, live, etc. wherever they choose to live. No... Read more »

equally. There are 21 acres. Can I sell their portion and distribute funds and I keep the remaining?

I will not try to answer your question as it appears that Probate issues exist. Can you please elaborate on your question so that the Probate attorneys will have a better understanding of your specific question. Is the land in a trust? Is it encumbered in any way? Is it part of an estate? How... Read more »
I’m a birth father that placed my daughter for adoption along with the birth mother. We signed a Post Adoption Contact Agreement thinking it would keep us in touch with our daughter through the adoptive parents. I recently learned that they never signed an agreement and therefore don’t have to... Read more »
Did you work with an attorney? You should give your attorney a call to get to the bottom of this and why if this is what you wanted how it was overlooked. If you don’t want to work with the same attorney you can consult with another attorney who can review the facts of the case to determine if... Read more »
The short answer is no. Intentional torts require the wrongdoer (known as the tortfeasor) to do something on purpose. A person who is driving high does not intentionally try to get in a car crash. Accordingly, while driving under the influence is certainly reckless behavior, it is not an... Read more »
My wife of 9 years moved and left me in GA
Did you want us to answer a question for you? If so, you need to post the question here first.
My father in law died, leaving my husband everything and naming him the executor to his will too.
My husband died before he could finish the probate process. Our children (Minors) are now the heirs but the new executor won't tell us what's there. We have repeatedly asked for an... Read more »
You did not mention whether your children are adults or minors. If adults, they need to file a petition for settlement of accounts with the probate court that issued letters. You probably should consult with an attorney specializing in probate work for assistance.
The POA is likely invalid. Only a judge can assign or reassign custody.
He went on the run 2 years ago and I haven't heard from him since. I just got confirmation that he is in Cobb county jail. Last known address was mines in Gwinnett but he gave his family address in Rockdale at the jail. All are 3 different countys in Georgia. Also can he be served in jail?
Yes he can be served in jail. Since he's just in jail, not prison, that's usually not the last know residence. Gwinnett may be the better place for correct venue. You should consult with an attorney on how to best move your case forward.
Have d one we were supposed to go to court next week but it got changed bc my lawyer said t had to many people testifying for her?
No one can give you specific advice about a case in progress without knowing all the facts. As you have a lawyer already, you should ask them.
Varies by state and judge. In short charged yes, found guilty maybe/depends.
they served me with an rule nisi/ex parte/ restraining order what can I do do I get legitimized then go for custody of just answer them and file a counterclaim
You need to file a Petition to Legitimate the child in the Superior Court of the county of residence of the child or yours. If you do not know how to do this, you will need to retain legal counsel to it. This would be best given you are now under a TPO. Truth be told, it can be tricky to do... Read more »
Is there any advantage or disadvantage to getting a divorce while unemployed? I keep hearing very different opinions on this issue. Who's right?
We don't know. More information is needed. Are there children involved? What assets will be fought over? Who is paying the family's bills right now? Do you live in the same house? What are you doing to get back on your feet?
I can say that if you file for divorce now, the... Read more »

1. HOA pools are defined as public in the department of public health document regarding pools. Public pools are smoke-free. But my HOA refuses to uphold a non-smoking rule.

If the HOA is not policing itself, then you can either vote the Board off and correct it, or you can consult with a HOA attorney in your area, obtain your options and then decide how to proceed from there. If there are other members of the HOA who are like mind with you, then y'all may be... Read more »
I refinanced the house taking my ex-wives name off the mortgage but it remained on the deed. The only thing the divorce decree says is the we will hare the "net equity". The house is selling 6 years after the divorce. What goes in to "net" equity. My realtor says i can take... Read more »
If your agreement doesn't allow to deduct payments and taxes, you cannot. Net equity is sales price minus closing costs and mortgage. Deducting the payments would mean you got to live there for free for 6 years. You had to pay those somewhere.
Does claiming alcoholism as a fault have any strategic advantage? I have proof as to how it has adversely effected the kids.
If your 14 year old wants to love with you, that will make your case easier. If you are able to prove she has an alcohol issue, that may impact custody and parenting time.
My neighbor uses his security camera as surveillance on my home 24/7 and he uses his video 2 post to Facebook inaccurate information to make me look bad and harass me on social media the video that he posted on Facebook on June 13th 2021 I have downloaded and I have the post where he was harassing... Read more »
It would be difficult to impossible to tell you whether what he does is improper or not. One would probably need to see the camera in question and how it is "aimed." It could be that he is simply trying to keep his property safer. As to suing him, what are your damages? How have you... Read more »
I committed adultery and my wife filed for divorce. We are still in the middle of the divorce and now she is dating someone. Can that affect her alimony? I have proof of the guy spending the night at her house with our toddler there asleep. Can that affect custody?The case is in Georgia.
It likely will not affect alimony. In order for it to affect alimony, the adultery needs to be the cause of the separation. It appears that the marriage ended because of your adultery and she is dating now. Whether or not the person spending time overnight with your child there is enough to... Read more »
