That is never going to work. A primary residence cannot be placed in an LLC. An LLC must have 3 members or more for it to be a valid legal entity. If you do not have an LLC custom-drafted by an experienced corporate attorney, it may not be worth the paper it is printed on. There must be a... View More

You may be able to sue the former owner for fraud, but far more facts would need to be known.

You are going to need to retain an experienced civil litigation attorney. You can expect to pay an attorney for 1/2 to one hour of attorney time to review the documents and explain your options.
It would seem to me that if the Full Faith and credit clause requires that drivers licenses are recognized state to state that the same would be true for professional licenses.
answered on Sep 10, 2023
States are able to enact their own laws, rules, regulations, and ordinances. Full faith and credit does not supersede all types of state laws.
Can a legal document be prepared that alleviates the legal obligation to pay child support if both parties sign it?
answered on Sep 10, 2023
Absolutely not! That would mean the state would have to support the child and that is not going to happen.
My daughter essentially emancipated herself after graduating high school. She is working and living on her own. I am still on the hook for 1200 bucks a month. Why am I still paying and why does no attorney I speak with think this I'd an issue?
answered on Sep 4, 2023
Emancipation is not automatic, a motion to emancipate her has to be filed. If there are some facts that you have not provided, that would explain why no attorney you spoke to believes it is an issue. So if you not left out key facts, it would require a motion. However, if she is a special needs... View More

answered on Aug 2, 2023
No do not talk to anyone until you have retained an experienced civil litigation attorney who also practices bankruptcy law. You are emotionally involved in this matter and are not a train attorney. With modern technology there are no limits to retaining the best possible attorney.
