He may have given his name also I do not know this yet I don't want my other son to be in trouble can you help me
answered on Aug 12, 2021
Yes, that can be an additional criminal charge. I suggest sitting down with a criminal defense attorney in your area to discuss. Keep in mind that attorneys cannot solicit or contact you directly, you will need to initiate contact.
Best of luck.
Both parents both children and myself live in Montgomery County Ohio. It looks like we want the designation of guardian form according to revised code 2111.121 written out with 2 witnesses and a notary public. I want to know if we're on the right track.

In short, yes you're on the right track. You may want to contact the probate court clerks in Montgomery County. Each county is different, and some have specific documents for you to complete. The Court clerks can usually assist you or point you in the right direction.
Best of luck.

Call the police. If she is trespassing in your property they need to remove her. Otherwise, if she has a legal right to be there, or if you fail to act you may run into tenancy issues and need to pursue eviction proceedings. You may want to sit down with an attorney in your area to discuss in... View More

The same way you sue anybody else. Any property owner must ensure that the real estate is reasonably safe for those who come onto the property. The specific duty of care required depends on the particulars of the situation. It would essentially be a negligence claim. I recommend you sit down... View More
We went to the house where we suspected the dog lived twice. We were informed by the woman in the house that the dog belongs to her brother who is homeless and on drugs. She told my boyfriend to keep the dog because she couldn't take it. We have had the dog for 1 week, and the alleged owner is... View More

If it's his dog and wants it back, you have no right to refuse him. Dogs are treated like personal property under the law with few exceptions. If the dog is running lose, you can contact animal control if you're concerned. Otherwise, if he agrees to give you ownership you can take the... View More
My sister is a part of that estate

Until an attorney can review the entirety of the situation it's difficult to provide you with advice. As Mr. Epling said, a probate attorney would be needed to look at the current circumstances and discuss the options available to you.
Best of luck.
Her trust is still in probate so I wasn’t sure if I could move furniture out. Nobody in the family wants it.
answered on Aug 2, 2021
I agree with Mr. Epling. The contents of the home are generally considered tangible personal property. Only "fixtures" go with the home. (A/C, water heater, e.g.)

Potentially. However, any monetary recovery would likely be very small and not worth the time and effort and expense of pursuing.
My parents lost their original notarized copies of powers of attorney, naming myself as able to take care of finances, etc. They are both in assisted living, both with dementia, but able to still sign and converse. I have copies of the originals, is there a way to notarize these somehow? Add a... View More

That's an interesting question. You are essentially trying to have a new POA created with the same terms as the old POA. As phrased, the answer is probably no, but there may be ways around it. Keep in mind that you shouldn't need the original POA when acting for your parents for most... View More
Can I use school mascots and names? What about poems or popular quotes? If a person is on a local sports team (non professional, such as Little League), can I include their name in the puzzle?

To a certain extent, it's going to depend on each item. Look for things that are in the public domain or attribution free. Otherwise you need to get authorization and/or pay to use trademarked or copyrighted materials.
I’m a 17 year old minor. I’m buying my 25 year old brother’s car soon. Person to person sale. How does the title work? Would it go in my parent’s name and when I’m 18, I need to change it or it automatically changes. Or is it in my and their name, and it automatically removes when I’m 18?
answered on Jul 29, 2021
You cannot own property as a minor. The car would be in your parent(s) name. When you turn 18 it does not automatically change. They would have to either gift, or sell you the car. You would take that to the BMV for a new title and pay the associated costs.

Refusing to sign the ticket does not change things. You still need to either pay the ticket or dispute it,

The letter should tell you. If you're unclear, bring it to an attorney for review. All I can say is, don't bury your head in the sand. Official correspondence from a Court should not be avoided or ignored. Failing to act usually only makes matters worse.
I Was never told I was being charged with anything or in trouble

No question is asked here. If you have a general legal question feel free to post. For a definitive answer about your particular situation and advise on options available to you, a full consultation with an attorney would be needed.
Best of luck.
My partner and I have rented from my parents since March. No lease, but an informal list of expectations was sent via facebook messenger. My mother decided that my sister and her boyfriend could move in earlier this momth, and that if I have a problem I could move out. I cannot afford to move out;... View More

In short, yes they can. You are free to negotiate a new lease agreement with them taking the change into consideration, but it is their house. If additional issues arise and you are unable to stay there, you can try to argue constructive eviction, but that can be difficult. For a detailed... View More
She died from an overdose and the baby died do I have a case against the cops
answered on Jul 26, 2021
It's unlikely. Police have immunity from liability from civil cases in all but a few instances. For a definitive answer you would need to sit down with an attorney to review the entirety of the situation in detail.
answered on Jul 23, 2021
Tough to say from the generic description. The normal waivers we see are related to notice that the estate is being probated. I suggest taking the document into an attorney and having him or her review for you. Since each county probate court has their own forms that are used an attorney who... View More

A detailed analysis of all the pertinent facts is necessary before anyone can give you a definitive answer. I recommend sitting down with a probate attorney in your area for a full consultation.

Your rights are protected as a matter of law. Since your father had no will you are ineligible in Ohio to become the administrator of the estate as you are not an Ohio resident.
Without a Will your father's assets will pass according to Ohio's intestacy statute. (O.R.C. 2105.06).... View More
I have a rental property, and my step daughter was living in it for rent free. We recenlty parted ways and she wants to take the shed from the property. can she leggally do that or is that a permanant fixture.
answered on Jul 20, 2021
Typically it is considered a fixture, but it could theoretically vary depending on the specifics. See Section 5701.02 of the Ohio Revised Code (link below).
