If you were not personally served, the plaintiff may have used an alternative method of service such as service by publication (where the plaintiff runs a legal notice in a newspaper that covers the area...

A guardianship would give you the most control and the most help. Check with your son's physician to see if the physician would support a guardianship.
But speak with someone you trust before commencing this legal procedure. This will be a most difficult task even with a guardianship.
Can an amendment to a living trust be challenged in court and overturned by an interested party in the trust based on incorrect format of the amendment, which was drafted by a legal document preparer and not a lawyer, and if so what would be the process or specific form to complete for an...

answered on Mar 11, 2019
An amendment can be challenged if it does not comply with the form of an amendment provided for in the trust or if it has other legal defects. As far as I know, the court does not offer a particular form for doing so. The court has a generic objection form that could be adapted to that purpose.

You need to consult a local bankruptcy attorney. Many student accounts are federally insured and your debt may be non-dischargeable as most student loans are. You need a lawyer to delve into this deeper and determine whether your debt is dischargeable!

When a judgment is paid in full, the judgment creditor is required to file a satisfaction of judgment with the court. Usually a copy is sent to the judgment debtor. Completion of a garnishment should result in the judgment being paid in full but there is no guarantee that this is so. I would... View More

A choice of jurisdiction clause in a contract can be enforceable, so there is a good chance that the lawsuit may need to be transferred to the agreed upon jurisdiction. However, this will not happen automatically. Your attorney will need to raise the issue properly so your Judge can decide it.... View More
My ex attorney received the summons. I have not been served personally. he sent the summons to me in an email. Do I need to respond to this summons?
answered on Dec 15, 2018
I recommend that you consult with new counsel immediately. In most cases you will want to respond to the summons to protect yourself--even if service may be questionable. I would definitely respond unless your new lawyer advises that a response is not needed.

No, nothing was done wrong. Disclosure was made to the lender and the lender closed the loan. Your daughter's obligation was to disclose her status. Then it was up to the lender to proceed or to revise the documents to include her husband.
