answered on Oct 3, 2023
Generally the action is filed in the county where the children are residing, assuming that they live in the county that has jurisdiction over them (which is likely). You generally contact an attorney that is licensed where you want/need to file the court action. It is usually filed by filing a... View More
Grand kids and I am very close to the oldest because I practically raised her the first 6 years. We used to face time every night then it just stopped and my daughter won’t tell me why. It’s hurting me and I’m sure my grand daughter. Can I take her to court for visitation and phone contact?

Yes, we do have a cause of action for grandparent visitation rights in Nebraska. One factor is the strength of the relationship between the child and grandparent. Thus, you don't want to go too long without consistent contact with the grandchild or the Court may become less likely to grant... View More
I am getting divorce do I have to split. I bought home during marriage but all the house was paid for with my home sale.
answered on Oct 3, 2023
Generally, property that was purchased in the marriage is marital. However, if a pre-marital asset or pre-marital funds were used to purchase the property during the marriage, then that part of the property may be a pre-marital asset. The burden is on the spouse arguing that the asset is... View More

The towing company is costing me $232.25. This is unacceptable. Can I sue and reclaim my property?
answered on Sep 20, 2023
You could try and you might be successful. You could challenge whether it was on the line or not. However, if a Court believes that your vehicle was parked in such a way that it was taking up two parking spots, then it would be unlikely that the Court would order the landlord to repay you for the...

Yes, on some things, the judge can move forward on a criminal case even if the defendant does not understand. For example, if a party says they don't understand the charge, the Court can appoint a public defender to help the person understand the charges. If the person is believed to be... View More

Not necessarily. There are ethic rules that require an attorney to withdraw in certain situations, such as if there is a conflict of interest. Some conflicts are no-brainers. For example, you can't draft a contract for one party and then be hired by the opposing party later in a breach of... View More
