You took out the loans, now it's time to pay up. The lender is not interested in your personal problems, nor does it have any idea about your relationship with your parents; the suggestion to borrow money was a suggestion, nothing more. There's no need or purpose to you becoming offended.... View More

Yes. When there is a no trespassing sign at the front of the gated community, the entire community is a no trespassing area. You have absolutely no legal right whatsoever to enter the gated community. None. Don't go back, because you could (and should) be arrested for trespassing.

Cease work. You have no real idea what you are doing, and you are liable to make an error which will cost you.

You don't send a 7 day notice when the tenant refuses to pay, you send a 3 day letter, properly delivered and which conforms to the statute.

You asked for a rehearing and the Court denied it. That's the end of you getting a new hearing. It may be possible to appeal the ruling, but you'd need an attorney who practices appellate law to review the case and the timelines for filing a notice of appeal are very tight.

here's a sample of what you should say.

Dear HOA,

I received your letter of DATE, in which you state another resident has complained about marijuana smoke from my balcony. I do not smoke marijuana or tobacco, or anything else. The alleged cannabis smell is not coming from my... View More

"It was during an eviction" - this means that the sheriff was there to execute the writ of possession. What happened the day before is anyone's guess, but once the writ of possession is posted, the sheriff is going to come out on their schedule. The answer to your question is yes -... View More

The day you are served the 3 day notice is day zero. Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays are not counted. So lets say the LL posts the eviction notice on Thursday. Day 1 is Friday. Day 2 is Monday. Day 3 is Tuesday. If you have not vacated the space or paid the rent by close of business on Tuesday,... View More

Eviction is a legal term; it is often used as a catch-all phrase. For an eviction, there must be a landlord-tenant relationship. If there is not that legal relationship, there cannot be an eviction. There are other ways to legally remove someone from the premises, but generally these actions are... View More

You don't simply change names on a deed. The owners named on the present deed must convey the property to someone else, either by sale or quit-claim. The owners of the property should consult a local Maryland real estate attorney for actionable advice.

You cannot be held liable for an amount of rent that you did not agree to pay. In other words, you can only be held liable for rent that is required by your present lease.

I recommend that you thoroughly review your present lease and furnish the landlord any notice that might be required of... View More

In theory, yes but government bodies may be immune from suit under a doctrine called sovreign immunity. Nobody online can give you the level or quality of advice you'd need to be able to act on your own; only an attorney whom you retain to resolve the issue can do that.

Yes, a creditor of yours can record a judgment that becomes a lien. What it cannot do is foreclose on the lien. Should you file and your bankruptcy is discharged, this judgment will be discharged and the lien evaporates as a matter of law.

Suppose these are the facts: Joe owns a house and has a mortgage on it. He devises the house to Sam, his friend, in his Will. Joe dies, Sam takes possession of the house. The mortgage is not paid. The bank can absolutely foreclose on the house but cannot hold Sam personally responsible for the debt.

Yes. A minimum payment means that's the least amount you are expected to pay so that legal consequences do not befall you. Otherwise, debtors could pay whatever they liked each month - a penny? a dollar? - on a loan of any amount and the creditor would be helpless to enforce the loan. The... View More

You should read and thoroughly understand your financing documents. But let's assume that there's nothing in the financing documents that prohibits you from adding her. Adding someone to a deed or the title to a car, to whom you are not married might be one of the poorest decisions anyone... View More

Without reading the divorce decree, it's difficult to say but in general, if the Court granted the Wife the exclusive use of the house and ordered the husband to pay the mortgage, then he has no standing to demand that anyone do anything. It may not be a bad idea for the Wife to engage the... View More

You must have the Massachusetts alimony order recorded in Florida. Once recorded, a Florida court can enforce the order. My advice is to retain an attorney in the county or near the county in which he resides.

You would have to see a lawyer to determine whether you can sue the other party for lost wages. Employment laws vary from state to state. I think you'd have a tough time proving that you lost income as an independent contractor. W2 employee income is known and predictable, but yours isn't... View More

Your veteran status has no bearing on anything. A motion to dismiss is inappropriate as a response to a motion for judgment. If you did not answer the allegations of the complaint, the plaintiff obtained a default. If you did, your answer may not have raised, in the eyes of the plaintiff, any... View More

You are smart to ask the question (although your parents should). Nobody, in my opinion, should quit claim anything to anyone for any reason without the advice of an attorney. The consequences of doing so, without due consideration of them, can be a nightmare once those consequences occur. There... View More
