Hire a MO attorney to talk to the owner and see what they want to do. The deed can be of many different estates. It is not simple and must be correct to actually transfer an enforceable interest, which will be contested at the grantor's death.

You can cite it to show some debts are unenforceable. But SOL starts from last payment., Credit companies do not have to comply until you give a written dispute. If report is still wrong then hire a lawyer to sue. They will usually ignore you.

Unless it is a mobile home, that house is part of the real property. If a MH, then you may wish to remove it. If you built a house on someone else's property, then hire a NJ attorney to file an action for a Sale For Partition. There you can claim, and possibly recover, some reimbursement.

Not for that exactly... But with plate readers that tell them a TNDL is suspended or car stolen, stops occur. Not having a seatbelt on is a reason for a stop. Only THP can stop to check DL alone. Any type of plate violation is also a reason for stop.
With further clarification of my question, my major concern is of the assessment. The maintenance increase, should have still been at least disclosed, in an act of integrity as the Seller is the president of the board.

Purchasing a condo means you accept those kind of monthly fees, or lose it. It does not sound like you could prove those fees were pending at sale. But in any event a fraud suit will not work as you have no damages and you probably want to continue living there.

I think you mean seize. Forfeiture Warrant should be issued quickly. But if vehicle is considered evidence, then FW is not necessary. FW will require a Bond and DOS Hearing to recover. It is a civil administrative proceeding and you will need an attorney and money. It has nothing to do... View More

You will need to read the Arrest Warrant and see what probable cause for the stop, detention, search and arrest is cited. If it looks questionable, prepare for a Preliminary Hearing. Hire a competent attorney. If indicted, then the Motion To Suppress should be made at that Court.

She will probably be booked, involving search, fingerprints, and mug shot. This is more convenient and cheaper than being arrested. The important thing is to take care of that DL. She needs to get all the information she can out of the issuing authority so that she has a DL and possibly get... View More

That is a subpoena duces tucem and it is Court issued. If you do not wish to comply, then hire a lawyer to file a motion to quash. Obviously you are not a party to the suit, but your records are wanted by one of the parties to use in Court.

Obviously there is no will. But you should consult with an OH attorney to see if probate administration is necessary or not. There are alot of considerations and expenses, and if the assets are not substantial, probate should be avoided.

A notary cannot make you do anything. However you cannot make the notary seal a document either. You may wish to find another notary, and probably some witnesses. Better yet, hire an AZ attorney to draft and execute your Will. Apparently there is something clearly odd or wrong about the... View More

Hire a KY attorney to search the title and determine heirship. Then either record an Affidavit of Heirship or Probate Father's Estate (or both). Do as your KY attorney advises. Deceased Relatives cannot give you a deed.

If Will is not probated, it means nothing. If filed for probate, then hire an attorney to examine Will and see if the Testatrix died partially testate or bequeathed and devised everything. If everything is given at death, then there is no need for a residuary estate clause.

You have a boundary dispute. You will need a NJ lawyer to search both titles, and a surveyor on the boundary to serve as your witness, Filing suit is expensive and difficult, but if you wait too long you lose your asserted boundary through acquiescence.

Owner will probably refuse to convey to you as the oral promise violates the Statute of Frauds. Hopefully you have some sort of memorandum signed by owner. Consult with a MI attorney to draft a deed and attempt to tender the money for the deed.

You might want to hire another attorney. His suggested choice of banks is not legally binding nor illegal. But if you really want to bank somewhere else, you will need another attorney as the present one wants to do business with who he knows.
