A Supplemental Needs Trust is... View More

Would like to have put in my mom's name how would we go about doing that?
answered on May 10, 2024

However, if there is a mortgage on the property, transferring it will be a violation of the terms of the loan (Deed of Trust), so mom may have to refinance to get the property transferred. In addition, Mom may incur income... View More

I missed a mandatory social event after hours which I didn't know it was mandatory and the employer is making me sign a discipline document pointing out that I didn't ask for PTO for that event in case I was going to miss it.
It was after a review that accused me of being 'combative ' and 'rolling my eyes' on zoom in the course of doing my work, among other subjective opinions and used as legitimate reasons. I am a naturalized citizen from
Nigeria. Do I have a case to sue for workplace bias? Thank you.
Sincerely

If you are not indigent, an attorney who is not a relative or close friend of yours most likely will not take such a case on a pro... View More

answered on May 8, 2024
If you bought a condominium then your ownership is subject to all kinds of rules. You should have at least read them before purchase. HOA issue fines and liens all the time, and rarely do you have an opportunity for a hearing. Nonpayment will result in foreclosure. You can hire a lawyer and... View More
