You must give the notice required by your lease or rental agreement. If you are on a month to month tenancy, you must give 30 days notice--if you plan to be out by the end of December, you must give your 30 days notice before the end of November.
Is that true ? Why do I have to sign anything? The divorce was between them. She’s saying because we’re married now that I have to sign papers because of the Arizona law of community property.
answered on Sep 25, 2018
If Arizona's community property laws are like ours here in Idaho, you shouldn't have to sign off on anything. If the ex does not want the timeshare anymore, she can sign it over to your husband, or she can take it. Based on my experience with timeshares, I'd recommend trying to give... View More
Would associated plan conversion documents be rescinded as well? I traded previous timeshare ownerships to purchase the new one. I signed the contract and decided to cancel it on the same date.
answered on Sep 6, 2018
Yes, all fees must be returned to the purchaser. The association, however, is permitted at times to retain the value of any promotional items given to you at the sales presentation.
And if I understand your second question correctly, then yes, the new purchase contract would be rescinded... View More

You should be able to work with a title company and or attorney to resolve the issues. The title company should be the starting point to find out what corrective documents need to be recorded before a deed transferring the property to you can be recorded.
How can i get my money back for the past 7 months of not going?
answered on Jul 27, 2018
If you signed a contract that is where you need to start. It would speak to cancellation fees and dues. I doubt there is a basis to request return of the dues for the past 7 months.
I have 30 years of experience in writing, editing and publishing. I live in Phoenix. The client, who resides in North Carolina, contacted me to help her write her memoirs. They are fascinating.

Yes, you need to contact a lawyer in the Federal district of NC where the bk is pending and have him check the filing out. He can then file, if necessary, the paperwork to intervene in the action and protect your interests. This is rather tricky, so you should not attempt it yourself
I recently learned (I have proof) that on the day of the sale of my rental property (single family home), the new owner completed a new lease and forged my name. I have not had a true lease in effect since 05/31/2014.

The first step is to have your original lease--the one you signed--reviewed by a real estate attorney. It may automatically renew by its terms. You may have the right to terminate. Once your attorney has reviewed the lease that you agreed to, he or she will be able to let you know your legal... View More

Hello. I hate to say it, but this goes WAY beyond the kind of legal advice you should be seeking on an online question and answer forum. It's not really even clear whether you are the plaintiff or defendant, and it's nearly impossible to address issues relating to dismissal without a... View More
The venue had no security cameras and I found out that this is happened before and they still have not put security cameras in. Can we hold them liable for the $5,000 of stolen merchandise.
answered on Mar 13, 2018
You may have a good claim. Generally, a business is not responsible for the criminal conduct of a third party. But where a business has notice of prior thefts and does not take reasonable steps to secure its premises for the protection of its customers, there can be liability for a... View More

Seems that if you provided service, food was served, you have offered more than enough. If sued you can bring in the other company.
I'm not clear if you were to provide the staff or if someone else was. However, you've given them a meal at over 50% off so ......one of those live... View More
I was unaware of this loan. Doesn't the loaner have to do a title search before the sale?
answered on Nov 20, 2017
A foreclosure by a first lender is possible. This is an unusual situation. The first mortgage loan from 2008 should have been discovered by the title company that handled your purchase escrow. Normally it would have been paid off before you took title. At this point you have several options.... View More

In a general sense, one of the goals of forming a business entity is to limit the liability of the owners to only what they put into the business and what it earns. However, the success of this goal depends on a lot of factors. You don't mention whether or not you actually formed a business... View More

Sounds like you've got a wage and hour claim. You should either contact an attorney who works in this area in your state or you may be able to call your state department of labor and see what they can do for you.
Signed security alarm system for 60 months at home address. Moved out of state. Does that contract now become voided and service should be cancelled with no penalties?
answered on Aug 14, 2017
When it comes to interpreting any contract, it always boils down to the terms of the specific contract that you signed. With some notable exceptions, the courts and the law tend to stay out of contractual relationships, allowing parties to enter into contracts on terms to which both sides agree.... View More
I have been paying on these loans for about 11 years with 20+ years left. I am in my mid-30s and have not yet saved for retirement. The payments are about $800/month. The balances have never moved. I have no recollection of taking them out. These are private loans, not federal. Is there any help... View More

As you may have heard, most student loans are very difficult to get discharged in a bankruptcy. You have to show "undue hardship" in order to get them discharged, and that has proven to be an extremely high standard to meet. This applies to most student loans, including ones from a... View More

The bad news is that anybody can sue anybody else for anything any time. Our legal system is fairly efficient at then weeding out the baseless cases, or at least more efficient than most, but you simply cannot stop somebody from suing if that is what they are bound and determined to do....

He was not harmed or injured. Can I sue the day care for not providing supervision and allowing him to walk 2miles crossing major busy intersections and being found in a strangers apartmemt.
answered on Jul 14, 2017
Certainly, the day care center was negligent. From a practical standpoint, most attorneys limit their practices to cases involving some form of physical injuries. The laws, standards of proof, and collectible damages may be limited by the applicable law in place. Most personal injury attorneys... View More

If the final order does not address listing price by giving you the power to veto the listing price, or a minimum list price, then you may not have any say over the listing.

The legal concept you are proffering is a sublease. The landlord is renting to you and you are in turn renting a portion to others. If the others do not pay their rent, this does not excuse your obligation to the landlord. A landlord/tenant attorney in your area can help you prepare an... View More
