Here is the situation: Currently the debtors are working with me, and agreeing to work out payment solutions including legal action if necessary. I want to make sure this next document\contract we sign contains the right words follows the right steps to allow me to collect should this go to a legal... Read more »
Any contract attorney should be able to help you with this type of agreement. If the debtors breach the agreement you will still have to go through the court process but you can put in provisions that will give them incentive not to breach.
Is there any type of language that can be in a contractual document that secures the the lender ability to secure debt?
In learning about the legal world it is all about the language or how something is written, of wills, and any sort of contractual document. My question is: Is there any... Read more »
You can include any language you want in the contract. But in order to garnish wages or attach an account you have to have a judgment. That requires an action filed in court.
Our garage door will open in the middle of the night on its own. It will also open while we are gone for the week/weekend and stay open for days at a time without us knowing. We have told our landlord of the issue 3 times in 2 months and it still isn't fixed. They had their maintenance person come... Read more »
I should publish an article on this type of question because it comes up so often. I don’t mean the garage door issue but rather a tenant who is upset about the condition of the premises and wants to terminate the lease.
Here’s my answer.
1. If you and your landlord can... Read more »

I have decided that I will no longer move forward with this venue for that reason. Are they legally allowed to keep all of the money I have invested beyond the... Read more »
You should have an attorney read the contract and provide you sound advice. You might be obligated to pay the full sum you agreed to pay.
I went to a company for products and services was quoted a price before signing the contract and now that I have signed the contract they are saying that the price I agreed to is wrong and I was never given a copy of the contract
Your opening statement does not work well with the facts you stated later. Were you misled into signing a contract and want out, or is the provider trying to change the terms of the contract and you want it to stay as is?
My ex helped me move my belongings and my childrens to a storage unit. He only listed it under his name.
He has denied me access after a domestic ciolence with him. And has refused to pay it. It has my and my childrens prescription medications along with my gun registered in my name that I... Read more »
Unless someone continues paying for the storage unit the storage has the right to lock it--and after a certain period of time--the right to open it and remove all the property. So: If all the stuff is yours go tell the storage company what's happening, and tell them you will be glad to pay all the... Read more »

We are trying to fire our present garbage company and change to a different company with much better pricing. Our original company was bought out by Waste Management a few months ago. They claim that we had a contract with L&K started in 2006 and that it went for 5 years and then renewed... Read more »
What you have is a contract issue. An attorney would need to read the contract to provide you with sound advice. That being said, I’m familiar with waste industry contracts and they are generally harsh. The often renew automatically unless the customer gives sufficient notice of non-renewal.... Read more »
Her first name is misspelled on all the documents, and does not correspond with the name that she is registered as an agent under in the state of MO. She also entered into a rental agreement with me, as my tenant, under this misspelling and is in default (not paying per the terms of her lease). Is... Read more »
Misspellings frequently occur in all legal documents, including the ones of concern toy you here. Rather than waste time worrying about the spelling of your tenant's name you should consider starting the eviction process--using the same spelling on the lease. Or if you are a perfectionist, use BOTH... Read more »

It depends. Was the judgment issued through a Missouri court or a Kansas court? If it was a Kansas judgment, was the Missouri attorney counsel of record in the case? If it was a Kansas judgment, has it been registered here in Missouri? If it was a Missouri judgment, then a garnishment may be... Read more »
But now he does not want to move till June. I told them he must be out at closing. What can I do?
If proper notice of termination was given and the tenant holds over possession, then the owner may file an unlawful detainer case. Until you are the owner, you have no right to file the lawsuit unless you get the lease rights assigned to you.

In the abstract there is nothing regarding road right of way until this time. Abstract dates from 1859. There is no amount listed as to what the road right of way is.

I am not aware of a state statute that defines the width of roadways, but some counties have such ordinances. Your best bet is to search the ordinances in your particular county, which can be done online.

As the petitioner, you are correct that you will have the burden of proving sellers knew about these conditions. This can be shown in many ways: repairs done, older photographs, statements by neighbors, etc. The burden is by a preponderance of the evidence, so more likely true than not.
I have cash buyers interested in the property but I’m not sure if I’m still legally bound to sell to the first buyers. I didn’t not put a closing date on the contract. I’m having a very difficult time paying the mortgage while I’m waiting for thier new bank to inspect the home.
You should have an attorney review the contract. This is too important of a determination to make based on any answer you might receive from someone who has not seen the contract and is not your attorney. I doubt, however, that the contract requires a specific lender.
The proper affirmative defenses to assert depend on the causes of action against you, as do any counterclaims. If it makes financial sense to you and in view of the amount at issue, hire an attorney.
This is more of a question-answer board. Try reposting your question with some additional details and hopefully an attorney could pick it up to provide some direction after seeing the basis of a suit you're contemplating.
