I was talking to the manager about leasing my horse. She said she’d be happy to help me out. All the sudden I go to the barn and I’m told I can’t do anything with my horse because she is leased on a contract I’ve never signed or read. She is also making money off this contract which I feel... Read more »

I was asked to paint a sign by my now former employer. I said I thought I could do it for less than a quarter of what the job was worth but it took a lot longer and was much harder. Then she fired me so I billed her a fair amount. She says I already agreed to the low amount. Did I? She knows the... Read more »

My husband cheated on me for 6 years out of the 8 years of our marriage. After he advised me of what he did, he filed for a no contest divorce, not telling his lawyer about his unfaithful actions. Alimony and child support are not included. What do I do?

File an Answer and a Counterclaim for Divorce once you are served with the papers. In the Counterclaim, you can mention the adultery and ask the court to award you child support and alimony.
The details are the number of times the other spouse was married and the other spouse has the wrong last name on the licenses.

What was it that the person lied about? We would need more information than this, as this is vague. The marriage may still be legal, but we’d need more details about what the lie was regarding. You could contact the county clerk to inquire about the legality of the license.

As long as you do not pay with cash you should have a record of your payment.
We discovered in 2016 our house was foreclosed back in 2011 by the bank that issued our builder's loan. This has robbed us access to our equity and the consideration upon signing the contract to begin with. We are still living in the house. Is the contract void? What are our rights?

I think we talked about this one at some length.

Shouldn’t I have been able to agree to my e-signatures by wet ink agreement or email correspondence prior to e- contract upload?
In addition, is it possible to e-sign a contract without an signature pad or access to the dealership’s computer?
Thank you

If this is true and you can convince a judge, then the contract would be unenforceable.
E signatures are good signatures so long as valid.
What is Possible is an excessively big space.

I couldn’t because I was only partial owner and I would have to give him back. I request only 2500 of my money back they agreed to give it back after I give them the dog back. Now I can’t get in touch. I had the dog for 5 day 3 of which I stayed in Georgia with him

I’m not sure I understand the question. If you have to give the dog back to the breeders, then you should do it so that way he can be rehomed safely to someone who can actually care for and about him.

There is no clause in my lease regarding landlord terminating lease early

Yes, the landlord can sell the property,
BUT
the new landlord takes subject to your current lease. That means he steps into the shoes of your landlord.
I assume there isn't a sale provision in the lease that allows the purchaser to terminate the lease.
