Here you can see what property is exempted in bankruptcy in Michigan: http://www.bankruptcyinformation.com/MI_exemp.htm There is also the alternative federal exemption. http://www.bankruptcyaction.com/fedexemptions.htm Mind though, that this is bankruptcy law. Since you cannot file for...

The company is using scare tactics and it seems to be working. Before you make any rash decisions like filing for bankruptcy you should sit down with an attorney and really go through the case detail by detail. I have read the other thread you posted and it sounds as if they have a weak case...

You would want to find out what is going on. Then, if the judgement really is against you, but you think you were either not properly served or this is not even your case, you would want to file a "motion for relief from judgment" in the court where the judgment has been entered. Depending on...

Well, that doesn't sound too bad. Oral contracts in most cases are as valid as written ones, the problem usually is with proving that there has been one. But under certain circumstances the law is pretty helpful. First of all one can point to the fact that one did perform. If the other...

Since a simple DUI (that means without additional factors like a prior DUI or driving without a license etc.) is neither considered to be an aggravated felony nor a crime of moral turpitude you probably won't have problems because of that conviction. But as always, to be sure one would have...

It depends on the state you are in, since every state has its own laws as to what is exempt and what not. But often a home or mobile home up to a certain value would be exempt, as well as a car up to a certain value and usually all disability benefits. So it looks that probably all your assets...

You don't necessarily need to have a written contract in all cases, but it surely helps a lot. This case depends on a lot of details so what you should do is consult an attorney and have him evaluate the case.

How long it will take until the interview depends on when and where she filed her paperwork. You can find this information on the BCIS website under "case status" You will need to know the filing date and the service center where the case is being processed and the district office where the...

As you might have noticed in the other threads here concerning the same question, theoretically the answer would be yes. Practically though there is one common problem: Canadians usually are not being issued a I-94 card at the border when they enter the US as visitors. But you need that card...

That depends on the circumstances of the case. Your lawyer will know more

There should be no problem with the schools. Good luck!

They need the file to find out what is going on with your brother's case.

It should not complicate things. The United States basically acknowledge dual citizenship nowadays. Unless at some point in the past you have expressively stated that you do not want to be a US citizen anymore (or did any of the very few things that automatically make you lose citizenship) you...

all these questions have already been answered more than once in the immigration section.

All you guys should invest in the fee for at least a consultation by a lawyer, if not for representation. While the actual fine or sentence might not look so bad, you all seem to be young. A criminal record at this stage of your life can cost you much more than the fines or the costs for a...

You are looking at an "affidavit of support" problem. The law says that the US citizen has to be able to show enough income to support all the members of his future household. The rule is that he has to show that he earns 125% of the federal poverty guidelines (with some exceptions). If...

It depends on some more details and where this all happened. In some states theft of $ 1000 or more is the threshold to a felony, in others it is $ 500. This is a pretty important question, because a felony conviction of course is much worse. Therefore, if you know that you might be...

I am sorry to hear this. This is a really interesting but tricky question. It depends on a lot of details, so that we cannot make an evaluation of your case here. You would have to consult with an attorney about this. That said, I think this scenario raises some interesting questions. Let us...

It depends on the contract. Since this is a private school you have a contract with the school. I can imagine that the school sees this conduct as a major breach of its rules and therefore as a breach of contract. That would enable them to not let the student come back. It really depends on the...

No, the authorities who do the wedding don't care about someone's immigration status. You also can obtain a K-1 Visa before the wedding, so you would not have to leave the country again afterwards. You only can apply for the work authorization once you apply for the adjustment of status...
