They had several violations of the rules of professional conduct and got disbared because of it if it's possible how do I go about filing papers myself and what forms will I need

Many people attempt to do this and fail. More would need to be known about your particular case. You do not want to file a frivolous motion with any court as doing so will just cost you a lot of time and headache. With that being said, if an attorney violated the rules and that resulted in a...

My husband and I bought a puppy from this couple in Devil’s Lake. Everything was fine until we fed him. He had diarrhea after we fed him and the next day he threw up and still had diarrhea. My husband took a nap for a couple of hours and saw that the puppy had pooped on himself. He went to pick... View More

Small claims court may be an option, but it depends on the situation.

Firstly, some noncompete contracts are invalid as a matter of law and not worth the paper they’re written on. Secondly, no attorney can answer this question without actually seeing the contract. If I were you, I would bring the contract to an attorney, pay them a basic fee to review and issue you... View More

Generally, you will need an attorney in the state where the child has resided for the past six months.
I chose not to put on birth certificate as he was unstable and using drugs during her first year of life/pregnancy. Does he still have any rights to her if he's not on the certificate? Like could he come pick her up whenever he wanted?

Not enough information here. You may consider calling the local prosecutor.
Left the restaurant early last night before I got too drunk. Pulled over for not using turn signal and not turning into first lane. Sobriety test in 40° weather then blew .16. At the station blew .175. Its my first offense, clean record. Do I need a lawyer? Would it benefit me?

If you were in a crash contact a member of the N.Dakota Assn for Justice in the County where it happened. They give free consults. Emotional distress claims are not favored and the rules are very strict. If you were hurt, focus on your injuries as well.
So I wanted to know the 1st step on doing this. And I need a program that is free of charge.

Check with the local bar association and legal aid and ask them to refer you to a bankruptcy attorney who can help you.

You would need to write up and file with the Court a written Stipulation reflecting what provisions of the Judgment you've agreed to modify. Both parties would need to sign and notarize the Stipulation. You then need to prepare and file a proposed Order and a proposed Amended Judgment.
My husband is paying child support for 2 children. His income has gone up since then. He got a higher paying job so we could make ends meet. But we now we have 2 boys of our own. I'm afraid if it's reviewed the amount he pays will go up. On the "child support calculator" on the... View More

The short answer to your question is "yes, the biological children your husband does not share with the obligee are taken into consideration." That being said, it is not a dollar for dollar "match." In other words, your husband's child support obligation may still go up... View More

Your question is someone of a complicated one. Even when records go off the public record, the government can still access them. I would certainly argue that the "not guilty" charge should not count as the "first" charge, as you were "not guilty". Note - cases are... View More

you can sue, but that doesn't mean you'll win.
To give a more practical answer, talk to attorneys who specialize in disability and/or landlord/tenant issues. If no one is willing to take your case on contingency, you'll probably lose

Legally, both parents still have custody (absent an agreement otherwise)
From a practical perspective, if one parent has physical custody, that parent will be making decisions
I have been really lenient at making her come over I am at the point right now where I no longer am willing to let her decide when she does n doesn’t want to come over all we have is a verbal agreement on days I have her and her dad has her

There's the legal answer, and the practical answer.
Assuming her dad is supportive, I strongly recommend talking it through with your daughter and trying to get her to understand and come willingly. Forcing a child to come against her will might be more damaging to your relationship... View More

Call and hire a defense lawyer in North Dakota rather than allow a warrant that can impact your employment and housing options go unhandled. Attorneys like myself handle this exact situation every day.
