An Arizona attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. Until you are able to discuss with Arizona attorneys familiar with local legal resources, one option might be to look into legal aid organizations or state & local bar associations. Good luck

You have posted your question in Arbitration so I assume you have some basis for believing that there is an agreement to arbitrate in the contract. Go to the Chad site and see what it provides regarding disputes. Perhaps it provides for arbitration. They are required to provide you with a copy of... View More

An Arizona attorney should advise, but your question remains open for several days and your arbitration is this week. Until you're able to reach a local attorney, one option is to check if the Arbitrator's Case Administrator could offer guidance. Good luck

I’m bothered by the word “findings.”
Generally speaking, a private investigator would be called as a witness and is able to testify from personal knowledge what he did, what he saw, what an adverse party told him, and what other people said which may be an exception to the hearsay rule.
The process went through even though one lawyer represented probate. And also estate..the mediator seemed biased to the other party as this party was an 84 year old recently widowed after 30 yrs

Obviously a case of this nature is not something a novice attorney ought to be handling. And, of course, it would be foolish to bring without an attorney at all.
There are a few attorneys who regularly sue colleges and universities for discrimination. Occasionally, advocacy groups fund... View More

Thank you for your question. Getting to arbitration is a process, which generally requires a law suit to be filed. The language seems clear but it is not. The language is saying that a lawsuit which is governed by arbitration is generally less expensive than a full blown law suit. Both choices... View More
No one can tell me what comes next. If I can't write the Memorandum, then I have no defense. Legal advise isn't common in my case. PLEASE HELP!

I don't know if you are appealing a civil matter or criminal matter. Regardless, the answer is the same: You prepare a "narrative" of what happened in Court, file it with the superior court, and the other party may then object to what you've written. You need to file this no... View More

An Arizona attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. First, you could check arbitrator's decision.

An Arizona attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. There could be provisions in your agreement that address arbitration. Some contracts have clauses that require arbitration over court - some contracts do not have such clauses. Good luck

Yes, if the plaintiff prevails and a judgement is entered against you it is possible that your wages will be garnished. I recommend that you consult with an attorney immediately to review this matter and get assistance to defend or settle this claim.
The short version:
My boyfriend financed a car for me. We had a verbal agreement that the car would be mine as long as I paid all payments, expenses, and down payment. It is 30 months later and I have never missed or been late for a payment and I have payed ALL related expenses.... View More

Yes it can.
If you can make sure it is in writing or recognized as such.
It would be better if the car is in your name and all payments came from you, from your checking account or transfers so that you have proof.
It may cost you to enforce the contract.

The unfortunate reality is that litigants nearly always distort or embellish the truth, even in open court while under oath. There isn't any real procedural remedy. Whenever this happens, you can prepare evidence to disprove the allegations contained in the mediation memo.
It is a 20 year agreement to pay off the panels. I know there’s arbitration in it. I’m scared that if they still get high utility bills they want to sue the company.

As a general rule, arbitration clauses are upheld. Additionally, decisions of arbitrators are regarded with the same binding effect as court decisions. If the clause was challenged, an Arizona attorney could offer more meaningful insight after reviewing the contract in detail. Good luck

In Arizona you are entitled to 50% of the community assets and responsible for 50% of the community debt unless you have evidence to clearly demonstrate why there should be an inequitable distribution.
What statute would it fall under?

Yes, obtaining "a work of art" and intentionally not paying for it is a crime--called "stealing."
