Generally what I've heard is that any recording that's been taken without a person's permission can't be used in court, but if hypothetically I was being abused by a blackout drunk who never remembers the abuse, I can't get evidence without recording it... What if I hit them out of retaliation... Read more »

You should have asked that your marriage license, and the resulting marriage certificate gave your adoptive last name. It's probably too late to change the marriage certificate; but ask the county clerk who issued the marriage license if it can be done.

i have proof of insurance during the time they say they didnt have insurance, and have emails from them, saying everything was up to date and good to go.

I have a work vehicle that had to be taken into a mechanic because it wouldn't start. The mechanic told me he's warned the owner on countless times because the airbags are broken and won't deploy.

Is it appropriate for a Florida probate lawyer to discuss with a spouse who is not a beneficiary, the house contents of a property that is part of the estate of their client's deceased mother?
It depends, I suppose. What difference does it make and why do you ask?
they are 2 be split between 4 children (2 from each spouse) can the surviving spouse legally transfer all funds to one of the children while the surviving spouse is still living?
Your question would make sense were the assets in question real property. In such a case, it sounds like a life estate to the surviving spouse, and the remainder to the four children. But your use of the words "proceeds" and "funds" suggests that you are asking about money received upon the sale... Read more »

Im looking for any reference to a statute in florida law. Also any reference to the possibility of... Read more »
