Land. Land purchased before her marriage.
It depends upon how the property was owned by the sisters. Can you maybe give some more context? Was it owned as tenants in common or as joint tenants with a right of survivorship?
We own a vacation property in a 6 unit building. Covenants state no renters. One owner allows her church members to use her unit 2-3 times a month. We can not prove money is exchanged. She swears the value to her is intrinsic. These unaccompanied guest cause numerous problems much like renter... Read more »
Without reading the full covenants and any other pertinent documents I cannot answer this question.
We planned to vote out our current HOA board to do a long list of issues plaguing our community. We will call an emergency special meeting with the stated quorum of lot owners in our Bylaws and have a vote. If the existing HOA Board is voted out during the Special meeting, do all members retain... Read more »
In order to answer this question, I or any other lawyer would need to review the documents that govern the HOA and the board. There should be something in there that deals with this situation.
He'll tell the real estate agent he is moving out. If he is gone for 30 days and I'm there, I have a right to privacy. He wants to move in with the other woman to sell the house. He was granted possession. The home is jointly owned by myself and him. I can cancel the sale before the 45... Read more »
I am answering these questions as if the house is in NC, I am not sure given that your address is listed in VA, if the house is in VA then my answers may be wrong.
If he was granted possession then no you cannot move back in without something terminating his exclusive possession.... Read more »
Hello,
I would like to use personal letters, purchased by me at an auction, in a book. People who wrote these letters passed away and 70 years have lapsed after their death. Many of the letters were written in the late 1800s. Are these letters in Public Domain? Am I allowed to use them in... Read more »
You should always consult an attorney and this is not legal advice nor forms any attorney client relationship
IF you own the original manuscripts of a work, and the copyright period has expired and nobody else can make a claim to it, most likely you are the owner of it and can do what you... Read more »
Given the fact that you are posting this from TX, I would recommend it. Having a local attorney would probably be worth the hassle of closing the estate.
My daughter has moved most her belongings into the house and now she’s been told that the landlord daughter is moving in not my daughter .They had a verbal agreement and were supposed to finalize and sign contract next week.We have cleaned the house inside to get ready and was told it was ok to... Read more »
Unfortunately, since there is no signed contract, the verbal agreement is not enforceable. Try to work out something with the landlord to get a few more days time in exchange for the time and labor expended cleaning up the house.
A personal injury attorney. If you did not become physically ill, require medical attention or psychological counseling, your recovery won't be a whole lot. A personal injury attorney can explain the details.
Told roommate I was moving out in 10 days, because of the hostile living conditions created by himself and one other roommate. I refused to stay there in those 10 days following because of how intimidating, negative, and all around abusive behavior directed towards me. I am sure it was all for the... Read more »

The Will does not include the IRA. It is separate from the Will. The spouse is the sole beneficiary named in the IRA. The Spouse disclaims a portion of the IRA and the children now are beneficiaries of the portion disclaimed. The Executor of the Will wants to disclose to the children all of the... Read more »
Without reviewing the IRA documents, I cannot answer this question because it depends on the IRA distributions' specific language. By disclaiming a portion of the IRA, you may have placed that portion in the estate. That being said, my first impression is that what is in the IRA or any of the... Read more »
the judge will normally reschedule. I'm not sure what your question is about, and suggest you speak with a North Carolina attorney.
However, I was never read my Miranda rights when first arrested and never was until I was in front of the judge for my very first ever court date... a day later. I’m not sure what to do as this is my first ever run in with the law.
You should retain a criminal defense attorney. He or she may be able to make all the difference. Do not face this alone! Once the case is resolved, you could probably expunge it. Good luck!
He died 2 yrs ago, they have 1 child from separate marriages and 1 child together. My mother in law insists the house we occupy is now hers as she sold the family home. My husbands grandparents and father expressed that husband would get our home which he has been in for 20yrs. Noone else has seen... Read more »
I would have to review the will (if it exists), the estate file (if it exists), and other relevant documents to be able to answer your question. My advice is to hire a local attorney to review the issue and give you their opinion.
I was told that her name had to be in order to sell by the realtor
Yes, unless you have a pre-nup that covers the issue. Even with a pre-nup the title insurance company may require your wife's signature on the deed.
My wife and I co-own a vacation property with another family (50% each). We are interested in selling our part to the family currently owning the other 50%.
1. Is a Quit Claim Deed the best way to exchange funds and separate from this agreement?
2. Would a QCD change the tax... Read more »
1. Normally I use a QCD when transferring partial interests between owners.
2. The QCD does not make the proceeds from a sale automatically a charitable donation. Excise tax and other taxes would still be applicable to any purchase/sale.
3. This is a question for your tax preparer,... Read more »
It does not matter where you got married. You can hire a licensed immigration attorney in ANY U.S. State. The cost will depend on what your immigration needs are. Most attorneys will be able to give you an estimate, some charge fixed fees and others (like me) even disclose their fees on their... Read more »
Take care of my brother and become his conservator. How can I make this happen?
In NC this is called guardianship, not conservatorship, I advise that you speak to a local lawyer to assist you with the process. If you want to attempt the process on your own speak to the local Clerk of Court.
Absolutely. You do need an attorney to guide you through this process as you might have to adjust your status as a "battered spouse." Physical abuse is not a requirement - it can be purely psychological in nature. Abandonment would fall under the category of "extreme cruelty."... Read more »
We want to marry here in the USA. He will need to return to Mexico because of his job. I plan to go back with him after the wedding, and we will start the 1-130 Spouse visa petition from Mexico. Can we get married here with his tourist visa?
As long as your fiance is not out of status (his visa hasn't expired), you can certainly get married here in the US. The best part is that he does not need to leave the country to adjust his status. In addition, while it may not impact your case, the Biden administration is working on changing... Read more »
I plan to sell the house and the agent asked if I'm married and she said he needs to sign the listing agreement so I can sell and at closing to release the deed.
Depends on if you are selling it yourself or under the estate. I would have to look at the will and prior deed in order to answer your question fully. I advise that you hire an attorney, to assist with the sale.
