4 years ago my son’s grandparents tricked me into signing over temporary custody by extended family to them (and they live in a different state.)
They have recently moved to a yacht so I don’t have a physical address of my child. And they are also refusing to let me visit him. I want... Read more »

This response is only based on Florida law. You need to return to whatever court issued the order that the grandparents have custody. Whether by your agreement or not, you need to ask the court to change the order and return custody to you. The rest of your questions will resolve after you take... Read more »

Interesting issue, which I don't have expertise in, but my somewhat-educated guess is: Regarding the issue of disclosure itself, without regard to whether it causes damage to the corporation, the answer to your question may depend on whether your corporation has a written confidentiality...

The house was only titled in his name without authorization. Is there any repercussions that the mother has to get her money back

answered on Jan 29, 2023
Mother needs to consult a lawyer who handles real estate litigation in her area to see if she has grounds for legal action, such as a lawsuit to quiet title.

You can download a copy of the document and verify that the other party has signed it. There will be a digital time stamp with the other party's signature if they have in fact signed. Follow the Digidoc instructions to retrieve the signed document.
He wants to take his name off of the deed so I can be 100% titled to house.(He is moving) Can this be accomplished with a quit claim deed? What would be the correct steps to take? Thank you in advance.

answered on Jan 28, 2023
Yes, that would work. Record the executed deed with the county clerk's office.

It is best to consult with a civil attorney who handles this type of claim.
Is this normal?

Without many facts—that is a very typical breakdown of a settlement disbursement in Florida for a car wreck case.
Is this normal?

answered on Jan 27, 2023
I think you're asking if the disbursement amounts are normal, rather than asking if the gross settlement amount of $25K is normal. Either way, a lawyer would have to review the matter to tell you if the dollar amounts are as they should be. Regarding disbursements, GENERALLY: (A) the... Read more »
I no longer have a lawyer due to my terminating him cause of incompetence. The judge denied a continuance for me to hire a new lawyer and said I would have to defend myself at trial but I know nothing about the law.

answered on Jan 27, 2023
It is unwise to terminate your lawyer without promptly hiring another lawyer as a replacement.
Many defendants do this in order to delay a trial or other important hearing.
You absolutely have the right to terminate your own attorney at any time for any reason, but exercising your... Read more »

Why do you ask: "considered affirmative relief" for what purpose?
I'm in the process of buying a land plot. And the Seller is requesting that I sign a Warranty Deed to him in the event of a default. But the Warranty Deed doesn't include any language about it only being valid in the event of a default. Should the Real Estate Agreement, which specifies... Read more »

answered on Jan 27, 2023
No, don't sign the warranty deed. And the agreement probably is not adequate either. A mortgage note secured by a mortgage is the proper way of doing this. You need to consult with an attorney.

There are good and bad insurance companies, and the bad ones routinely deny valid claims and/or are extremely stingy because they figure their resulting higher profits will outweigh the losses caused by lawsuits. When an insurance company has no rational basis for its denial or stingy offer,... Read more »

The final answer is more complicated, but the short answer is that it is very possible that you would have to share the asset. You should always consult an attorney before making financial decisions if you believe that there a good chance that the marriage will be dissolved at a future point.
There was a problem in our park on New Years where my husband was trying to break up a fight with some residents, those residents turned against us and made reports to management that just was not true. Now they are serving us with a non-renewal. We own our home but rent the lot. We feel... Read more »

answered on Jan 26, 2023
Having been accused of violence in the course of breaking up a fight doesn't sound like discrimination on the basis of being in a suspect category (race, etc.). So, unless the mobile home park's agreement proves otherwise, they can get rid of you.
There was an auto accident in our HOA. A resident (not me) hit a person on a bicycle. Our security company, under contract, is supposed to ask for ID for any person coming in the community day or night and any guest must be authorized by a resident to come in.

a. You should ask the local police if they can and will prosecute the cyclist.
b. The resident driver's liability insurance company might be able to sue the HOA and the security company if the carrier is obligated to pay damages to the cyclist.
c. The cyclist is probably... Read more »

Grantee's mailing address is wrong rather than the address of the property conveyed? There's no issue if it was some sort of scriveners error in the address. You can file a corrective deed.
