I have no idea what the termination agreement is about. But if a deed was executed and recorded, then the grantee still has the title that the grantor was able to give him. If a warranty deed, then the grantee may have got what the grantor got later. If the the grantor is trying to reassert... View More

Generally no. Unless you reserved such a right in the deed, you have no interest in the property once you signed and delivered the deed.
Do certain docs need notarized and/or filed with Court Clerk office? Will a durable POA cover it all, including land, her home and Quit Claim Deed if necessary? Is a Advance Directive needed or just be beneficial? Are specifics needed to handle her Social Security benefits as well?

This sounds like a property damage case, why would there be arbitration? You are not suing ATT over services you contracted for them to provide? You are suing as a property owner for damages incurred by their negligence. This case arises under REAL PROPERTY DAMAGE/TRESSPASS law. You need to... View More

Even if her right to the property is superior to yours, she had no right to lock you out of your home without due process and a court order. I would call the police (not 911).
She didn't welcome the touch. He then pushed her on the bed and tried to preform oral sex on her. She pushed him away. He then gave her a surprising $1000 instead of the $500. She was facing eviction that same day and it was dismissed. He again contacted her the next day telling her to come to... View More

There is a fine line between “transactional sex” and prostitution. The landlord and your girlfriend may have crossed it.
I recommend that you ask your girlfriend move as soon as possible. If they did this once, they will likely do it again. You should not want her to go down that... View More

Unless you plan on appealing a judgment, as a practical matter it is irrelevant to the owner/landlord. Hire an OK attorney to file a civil suit against the occupant for possession, what many people call an eviction.

Initially you must search the title as apparently you have no knowledge of the title. And I would also search under the alleged easement grantor's name to see if there is any record of him having an interest in your land. If nothing legitimate shows an easement granted, then a lawsuit is... View More

If the Will was Probated then it will be at the Courthouse. Hire a competent OK attorney to file suit for a Sale For Partition.
Deeded or willed. One of them lives on the 5 acres in the home where she had lived and had been there for about 5 years she has been deceased a year. No probate has been drawn up who has ownership of the property and can they sale all it or give it to another family member like a uncle or such?

Probating the grandmother’s estate will be the quickest and least expensive route to take. Sooner is better than later.
