You question raises a lot of issues. One simple, quick solution to one of the problems is for your mother to simply make a new will. In making the new will, she can "revoke" all previous wills, meaning they will no longer count as her will. Because of the other issues, it is best if... View More

Let's see if I have this right. You and your brother were entitled to receive a sum of money. You gave your right to the money to your brother. That means you no longer have any rights to the money, and neither do your children. Then you say 1/2 of "the money", is that the same... View More

Nowhere near enough facts to offer suggestions. What documents are involved? Are you suggesting undue influence? Speak!

You will need some trust administration services and to understand what your cousin has done. Attorneys cannot contact you, you will have to call or email an attorney. Call or email an attorney for a full consultation.

It is not possible to be specific without seeing the actual contract terms. Generally, arbitration clauses only govern the filing of an action, not pre-filing communications or actions. If the other party files a court action, you can compel arbitration, or you can initiate arbitration yourself... View More

Usually the contract will specify the procedures, place and even organization to be used by the parties to an arbitration. If these terms are missing, you may not even have an enforceable arbitration clause. Probably worth your while to have an attorney review the contract and discuss the... View More

1. The date that the proof of service is filed is not important. The date that the service took place is.

2. A property manager may serve legal documents on a tenant. There are several ways that documents may be served. All of the tenants -- those on the lease, as well as the other... View More

You say you are not on the lease, that is, you have no agreement with the landlord. If he is subletting to you without the landlord's consent, he is probably in violation of his lease and subject to immediate eviction, in which case you would also be evicted..

If you and the seller signed a purchase contract such as the one provided by the California real estate department, there are specific provisions relating to representations by the Seller, who pays for damages to the property, etc. If the Seller knew of the leaks and did not disclose them, and...

I do not know exactly what you signed. You appear to prefer going to trial. Perhaps you do not understand what mediation is.

I presume you would agree that if you have a dispute with someone, you try to settle it. You negotiate. If that does not work, the next logical step is to hire... View More

Tough question. To give a preliminary answer, the contract you signed, the "Arbitration Policy", would have to be scrutinized. Many large companies have employee contracts that specifically state that you cannot participate in a class action against the company. To do so would breach... View More

File a petition for custody and visitation orders as the presumed parent or file a parentage action and concurrently file a request for order for temporary custody and visitation orders.

You have an attorney. He should be able to answer all your questions. If you have a difference of opinion about whether your psychiatric problems should have been included in the mediation, tell him that. If you are not satisfied with his explanation, tell him that you want to get a second opinion... View More

You ask one question. Before anyone can provide an answer, you need to provide the answers to many questions, including but not necessarily limited to: Did you have any conversations with your son about the future disposition of the property? If so, were there any witnesses to those conversations?... View More

The answer is yes to both questions. Unless the Mediation Brief itself was marked as confidential (which would be unusual in my experience) you were perfectly at liberty to show it to persons who might be involved in the mediation. At the mediation hearing itself, the confidentiality provision is... View More

mediation briefs are NOT confidential and shouldn't be, because they are to persuade the other side that they should settle because you are on top of your game. Maybe you meant a settlement conference statement instead. Even that should be disclosed. You can discuss the secret sauce with... View More

This is an incomplete answer. The property is in California. You state you were married when the property was purchased, with only your wife on the grant deed. However, California is a community property state. Therefore, it is presumed to be community property. The presumption is rebuttable.... View More
