I did call animal control and will try to find the owners before I do anything of course. I have also had two litters of feral kittens disappear within the past two weeks and I think these are the dogs responsible.

You might be able to recover the cost of the vet care for your cats. If the dogs trespass on your property, you may call the police, potentially sue the owner for trespassing, and utilize all normal measures against a trespassing person/animal. Be careful, things can sometimes escalate between... View More

It depends on the circumstances. From what you've said here, it does sound like you may be able to get out of paying the rest of the purchase bill and potentially recover the vet bills.

Now there is a tax lien. From 2010&2012. Can I sue the county to make them do a tax sale?
answered on Aug 10, 2020
To understand correctly, you want to ask the county to sue to foreclose on your property due to the tax lien?
I would call a foreclosure or tax attorney to take a look at your situation.
The case against me is from a creditor.
answered on Aug 10, 2020
It means the creditor has not been able to properly serve you court documents. They're likely to try some other means to serve you. As soon as you're served you have 28 days to file your answer or they will seek a default judgment.
It was quite a few years ago and she is now married to a successful doctor. She filed BK years ago but I know that the debt cannot be discharged. The amount was a bit larger.

Each year the Ohio Tax Commissioner sets the interest rate on judgments. The current interest rate is 4%. As for attorney fees, that range is too large to properly estimate for you. If you choose to hire an attorney for collection, you can ask that attorney for what they're fees would be.
I'm actually contacting you for my elderly Aunt. She has a neighbor that lives across the street who is a bad drunk/drug user who is always yelling and harassing her.

You can go the typical route of eviction. File with your local municipal court.
answered on Aug 13, 2020
It would depend on a lot of factors. Is that offer to property damage only, or does it cover hospital bills and pain and suffering. Insurance companies never offer their best deal right out of the gate, and you may need an attorney to help get you the top offer.

You should be fine, but you may want an attorney to cover the hearing with you. As Attorney Jaap said below, she'd need to prove you breached a contract somehow but if you're correct and it was free to a good home then it just sounds like seller's remorse.
Who is liable for the vet Bill's of my dog and my child who was bit, the rescue has refused to come get the dog several times after aggressive behavior from the person she stuck with the dog, the dog passed away in the attack. The dog was still owned by the indiana rescue, they abandoned the... View More

You can try to seek recovery from the rescue or "foster" owner. Who actually pays will depend on whether the dog was officially transferred to the new owner, or whether the rescue retained legal ownership over the dog.

I am also not adding his name to the loan but the title agency says he had to be at closing to sign a “marital interest” sheet or we can’t continue. Why if it is in my name, and he has nothing to do with it? How do I get around this?
answered on Jul 8, 2020
Ohio has an archaic "dower" law that gives every spouse a 1/3 interest in the property. He has to sign his dower interest paperwork, and when you sell the house, he would then also have to release his dower. This interest is a statutory right and exists outside of you holding title.... View More

There are some mandatory state fees (recordation, conveyance fee), and many attorneys charge about $250 or less to draft a deed. It also depends on the nature of the deed. E.g., quit claim or general warranty.

If the house is on the 30 acres which is owned in common, then everyone also owns the house. Unless there has been a partition action, the entirety of the property is owned in common. The tenant may have typical tenant/resident rights to the house.
ago that was sold to a different company that now using a third party collector that sent a collections letter can id dispute based on sol or no?

You might be able to claim an FDCPA violation as well. A good attorney should be able to give you a hand at little to no cost to you.
answered on Jul 6, 2020
It would depend on a few factors, a consultation with an attorney would be able to provide a more full answer than simply whether you were stopped with your foot on the brake is enough to not be at fault.

Keep your dog. You adopted it from a shelter, it's your dog now. If they continue to harass you, you can call the police on them.
2 years ago, my family was given a dog by a man who had taken her in. When he took her in, she was a stray, and he tried to find her family but never heard back from them.

You should be fine. Vets won't scan microchips unless you ask and they're not usually concerned with ferreting out that kind of thing.
