If you have already signed off on the final papers, depending upon the timeframe, you might be too late. Meet with an attorney immediately to see what can be done.

No. He is a child until he turns 18. You need to know that helping him go against his parent(s)' wishes could put you at odds with the law. You might be charged with interference with custody. If the situation is bad enough, you might consider calling DFCS (Department of Family and... View More

To know the answer to your question, a real estate attorney will first need to examine the deed/title records of the county. The answer will hinge on whether there is an easement granted to him. He may also have obtained the right to do this by prescription. None of this will make sense here,... View More

You might consider requesting a temporary restraining (protective) order. These are the same thing and are typically referred to as a TPO or TRO depending on the person. Check with the Magistrate court in your county.
VRBO is not desired in our neighborhood. Before we vote on the matter, I felt we might need legal advice. Our covenants restrict businesses in the residence. We might need a lawyer to address our board members. I am the president of ROHA or Royal Oaks.

To assist us in helping, can you tell us why you even signed the lease if you knew it didn't have the disclosures you now reference?

Honestly, there are too many moving parts in your situation. It would be best for you to sit down with an attorney to discuss the problems you have individually and more specifically.
My ex lives 6 hrs away and I have been driving staying with her, but it is causing too much drama. And now I don’t want to stay with her, but I don’t want to give up my visitation time with my kids.

Sit down with a child custody attorney to discuss your situation. We cannot answer your question here because we don't have enough information. You may need to take some form of legal action to get where you want to be.

You mis-posted your question as being one dealing with GA law. Still, your question is one that any attorney anywhere could answer. A person who has reached the age of 18 is NO longer a child. That person would be an ADULT. An adult can move, live, etc. wherever they choose to live. No... View More

I will not try to answer your question as it appears that Probate issues exist. Can you please elaborate on your question so that the Probate attorneys will have a better understanding of your specific question. Is the land in a trust? Is it encumbered in any way? Is it part of an estate? How... View More

I agree with the ladies' responses. The best thing you can do now is meet with a divorce attorney to map out your next moves.

You need to file a Petition to Legitimate the child in the Superior Court of the county of residence of the child or yours. If you do not know how to do this, you will need to retain legal counsel to it. This would be best given you are now under a TPO. Truth be told, it can be tricky to do... View More
Is there any advantage or disadvantage to getting a divorce while unemployed? I keep hearing very different opinions on this issue. Who's right?
answered on Jun 16, 2021
We don't know. More information is needed. Are there children involved? What assets will be fought over? Who is paying the family's bills right now? Do you live in the same house? What are you doing to get back on your feet?
I can say that if you file for divorce now, the... View More

It would be difficult to impossible to tell you whether what he does is improper or not. One would probably need to see the camera in question and how it is "aimed." It could be that he is simply trying to keep his property safer. As to suing him, what are your damages? How have you... View More

Given that you have described this person as you did, the best advice that I can provide is that you should retain an attorney to assist you in this matter.
answered on Jun 14, 2021
The only effective suggestion is that you should beg and borrow the funds to retain counsel. You may also contact GA Legal Services to see if you qualify for a reduced fee attorney.
