Well, that is good news. It is nice to see that they actually work faster than one suspects. His citizenship does not make any difference in these cases. If he violates German law or a German court order he can be prosecuted anywhere a German court has jurisdiction, regardless if he is an...

You can try, but the idea of the law is this: Your speed always has to be adjusted to traffic conditions so that you are able to stop in time if there is something blocking the road. If it is rainy and dark, you have to drive slow. So if you crash into something, no matter why it is on the...

Basically you have listed the way you need to go: First you marry. You can marry any time. Then you as the American citizen have to file the I-130 petition with all the accompanying paperwork, most important the affidavit of support showing that you can "afford" to support your husband...

Now I don't know any attorney in Regensburg but I found two offices where you might want to have a look. The first office is specialized in criminal law and family law which would be a good combination: http://www.rahaizmann.de/ One of their lawyers was practicing in England and Australia, so...

there are millions of cases like this and each one is a little different from the next. So some general statements do not really help you. To document the case and calculate damages and answer all your questions - that is what you have an attorney for.

It might be a good idea to have an attorney review this. Probably it all won't be a problem, but you want to be sure.

The problem is, that the courts have interpreted the clause "endangering life necessities" very liberally. Under German law the government will step in if someone who has to pay support does not do it. Once the government pays, it does not let those go, who actually should have paid. The courts...

You are 21, so you don't need to stay if you don't want to. As long as you are on his property, he can set certain rules. If you don't like them, you are free to go. This I say just to make sure you understand the difficulty in maintaining a lawsuit against him. This would be his first line...

a) Yes. You have to answer truthfully if asked if you have ever been arrested, cited, convicted etc. It does not necessarily mean that you will not be granted citizenship. But if you lie on the application, that will definitely mean the application will be refused. The federal government will...

well, he better get his attorney back to explain things to him. You never should sign anything you don't completely understand. It is his attorney's job to explain things. The government can offer immunity in exchange for testimony, actually once they offer immunity they can compel somone to...

Yikes, I am sorry to hear this. This is a real mess. The problem is, this is not just a civil matter. German law does not have much sympathy for deadbeat parents, and in the eyes of the law that is who you are when you do not pay court ordered child or spousal support, no matter what good...

This is an even murkier issue. I am not really up to date on trademark law, but I remember there were some lawsuits a couple of years ago where companies sued people who were simply "sitting" on domain names they wanted to use. Sometimes they won, sometimes they lost. As far as I remember it...

It sounds pretty fishy but one would have to know the details. I suggest you get together with the other homeowners and invest in a consultation with an attorney to look very closely into all the documents you have.

This is hard to answer without the exact details. But usually those companies are willing to compromise as long as the compromise is fair. So I would approach them and tell them: Look, this was my cost, I am willing to give you the rights t o this domain, if I come out of this without any...

This reminds me of something... When I was in 7th or 8th grade we had an English teacher nobody liked, Mrs. Loach. Of course, privately, we all called her Mrs. Roach. Or even worse, Mrs. C...roach. One day my PT teacher, out of the blue, asked me where a certain book was he was looking for. And...

You write that your birth was registered with the Mexican authorities. Try to find out if your birth has also been registered with the American consulate in Mexico, on form FS-240. If yes you are lucky, that document will serve as proof of your citizenship. If you don't know if such a report...

It depends on the provisions of your contract. Usually you would not be entitled to keep it.

It depends on a lot of circumstances: -how old are you -where do you live now? -were your parents married when you were born? -where were you born? -is there any way you could find your father?

I am very sorry to hear this. This is a tricky situation, especially because the authorities are obviously not doing their job. These people are breaking the law. Now what can you do. First of all, you should insist that your Sheriff gets involved. May be you drive to the station and talk to...
