If you transferred ownership without any conditions you do not have the legal right to demand her to be returned.
Non custodial parent, original order was in 2016 when I was a seasonal employee. Rate was 75/week. Then switched jobs and for a higher salary but did not inform mother. I’m not in the child support system, I pay her directly. Will I be retroactively charged once she takes me
Back to court?
If there is no child support order at all (either from Family Court or through Divorce) you can not be obligated to pay any retroactive support, with the exception if the custodial parent is on public assistance. If there is an active order, retroactivity only goes to the filing date of a new... Read more »

Not really that novel a case. You can sue. Stated account claims are simple. Not sure if there are defenses. It is an hourly fee. Collection is always an issue, but if you do nothing, you get nothing, and that is the worst case scenario.
My partner and I broke up? He still lives there and the lease comes to an end by the end of July 2020. I had informed the landlord of our break up, and that we are no longer together, but I continue to pay the rent for the committed lease of 1 year. How will it affect me should the ex fiancé...

It depends on the lease terms. Typically tenants will be jointly and severally responsible for the rent amount.
To auction to the highest bidder. Does this mean I do not own or are responsible for this time share?
Is the timeshare company bankrupt? Without seeing the notice I cannot opine on it, but maybe there is a sale of the property subject to all timeshare interests.
There's an abbreviation DIWC, Disabled Insured Worker's Claim. If you wanted to repost in the Social Security section, you'd have better chances of an attorney familiar with this area seeing your question. Good luck

On a 3rd party calling child protective custody on family
The answer based upon the facts presented is no CPS cannot take the child. However, be aware that until ordered to do so by a judge, you do not have to take a drug test.
I going through my parent's estate, I found 2 fairly large bottles of old-time quack medicines. One listed ingredients as strychnine. Both bottles had significant quantities still remaining in them. I know pharmacies won't take prescription containers if the medicine is still in them.
It's hard to say what type of attorney is closest to your issues, because it could introduce a number of issues, in terms of controlled substances (medicines that might not have been controlled at the time of production), poisonous substances (strychnine is a poison - a toxicologist could...

This is for an out of state buyer who is doing a first time purchase of a home in NY. What should a buyer be asking when trying to determine the most cost effect way to hire a real estate attorney?
The real estate attorneys here could give you the most meaningful input, but you're waiting for a reply and as a general matter, a good way to find out could be to contact attorneys and ask their fees. As with attorneys in any field, you could ask their area of focus, their experience, and... Read more »

My divorce papers say nothing about continuing support past 21. I am the father and I filed an order to modify my order to stop my wage garnishment.
Child support terminates at 21 and can not be continued after unless agreed to, and then until 22 if the child is in college, but only if agreed. Other provisions (not child support) could be addressed. Speak to an attorney.
My divorce papers say nothing about continuing support past 21. I am the father and I filed an order to modify my order to stop my wage garnishment.
Child support ends at 21. The court does not have the power to extend support beyond 21. The court however can enforce agreements that provide for support or college and even graduate school beyond 21 only if it was agreed to in WRITING.
