If the person has a valid notary commission, they are a notary. Ask to see their commission certificate, and check that against their driver's license. If they have a valid commission but their stamp has their name misspelled, I'd consider using someone else.

Texas' Probate Code, Chapter VIII (Proceedings During Administration), s.286 (Allowance to Surviving Spouse and Children). It's an amount the court may in its discretion set to be paid for the support of a surviving spouse, sufficient to maintain them for one year following the death. The...

You don't pay them, and you talk to your lawyer on your next visit. :) Often what happens then is you tell the claimant you think it's a bogus claim. When the estate is ready to be settled, you might keep a contingency back to pay out in the event the claim is proven in court.

What statute? I'm not an Arizona lawyer, but I would be very surprised if you as a lessee were not bound by the contract just because your wife didn't sign. (Say you didn't disclose to the lessor that you were married - would the contract be void? I doubt it. That would put lessors in a very...

It is impossible to answer without knowing the circumstances. I gather this is related to your other question recently posed - I will have a look at it over there.

You should check whether the father's will contains any survivorship clause - certain wills require the beneficiary (i.e. your husband) to survive the deceased by a certain period before they inherit, and your husband (or his estate) might not be entitled to inherit at all. Assuming he does...

It is relevant, but it is not relevant in the way you wish it to be. Maybe you can get the illegally procured evidence thrown out, maybe subject the plaintiff to an order for costs, maybe you can countersue for breach of privacy or something similar. But a judge in a civil case is not going...

The guy might be a dick, but it's not criminal harassment. He's not stalking you, he's not engaging in threatening conduct. If he's showing up at your apartment at your roommate's invitation, he might conceivably be liable to some kind of fine from the campus police for breach of an order...

When you signed permission for them to direct deposit to your account, you almost certainly also signed an authorization for them to reverse any errors. So it is completely legal for them to inform the bank and have the mistaken deposit corrected. They wouldn't be doing it "without authorization".

It is unlikely that the children and spouses would be liable under the terms of the lease - at worst, the property was encumbered by the lease, but the property reverted to the realtor. If there was any debt owed by the estate, it wouldn't pass to the heirs anyways. However, you don't want to...

Is this purely a hypothetical question, or are there other specifics you would care to provide? Barring very exceptional circumstances and a very understanding judge, the contract signed by both will govern.

You can advise her you'd be happy to send a copy of the death certificate to any authorities that require it, if she would advise you where to send it. ;) I don't know much about estates in Connecticut or how to track down assets there, but my suggestion would be to talk to a local estates...

It's a little late in the game for that. And it is usually unsuccessful.

Unless they can show some reason why you personally should be liable for the debts of the corporation (google "lift the corporate veil" for more info), your personal assets should be safe.

California does not recognize common-law marriages. So she has no marital rights to the property. She might have rights to the house either under an oral or implied living together agreement. She would need a court to find that she and her BF agreed to share the expenses and share ownership...

If you're asking how it will be divided - unless you have a marriage agreement providing differently, it will probably be considered to be marital property and will be divided between the two of you. Considering it was bought with family money and you haven't had it very long, I suspect it will...

Why would you owe him anything? He's done nothing for you and given you no money. I suppose if he thought you had wrongfully registered the business name he could sue you to assign it over to him. Considering he is planning on turning the business over to you anyways I'm not sure why he...

My question is: Is this how this should be handled or should I be concerned as the treasurer of the board. Is there anything else we need to do. You absolutely should be concerned. As treasurer, you're responsible for whatever monthly and yearly financial reporting your organization does. You...

If all tuition and "extra fees" have been paid, what is it they are asking for?

I think it's silly asking persons on the internet for legal opinions when you've already got two. You should ask your lawyers to explain their answers, present the opposing position to them and ask why not that, and go with whichever one sounds more reasonable to you. From a practical point...
