    Sister holding investments

    Some estates don't go into probate because they don't need to. What is the value of the estate? It may be below the minimum value required in your unnamed jurisdiction. The executor may have the option of doing an affidavit or something similar.

    Consumer Law, Warranties Breach of Service Agreement

    Is there some magic to the words "service agreement", or is it just a straight breach of contract? He hasn't done what he contracted to do. Sounds like you have a case. Unclear. If he's done nothing of any value to you, then I would say you should be entitled to a full refund. You probably...

    Enforcing Separation Agreement - Spouse Required to Take Over Mortgage

    Have you filed your separation agreement with the court yet? If not, do so. Then apply for an order that your former spouse is in contempt of court. You will likely need to obtain an order for production of his tax returns etc. so you can prove he was gainfully employed but did not refinance...

    Consumer Law, Warranties Mutual Confidentiality Agreement

    Without knowing the circumstances of your business arrangements and which role you will play (the discloser or the receiver) it is impossible to say. Generally, there is nothing remarkable in this agreement.

    collecting on a judgment

    There's always the danger he could hide his assets. Real property is difficult to hide - worst case scenario, if he empties all his accounts, you can still register your judgment against his real property. Your small claims court probably has some mechanism for examination of the debtor - a...

    Consumer Law, Warranties Contract & Mental Capacity

    Your mother should make sure that's written into the contract and get a promissory note. If your mother and he agree on a fair price and he signs a promissory note for the amount he will be paying later, he has little to fear. She will have gotten a fair deal. Whether a potential claim could...

    Hoa discrimination

    No, that is not harassment. They could try to sue you - anybody can sue for anything - but they are remarkably unlikely to be successful. I don't know what "sue the statement" means - you sue persons, not statements. You can certainly make that statement - it sounds entirely reasonable to me...

    Easement woes continue - can I be forced to move my sewer line?

    Yes, unless you can succeed in establishing a prescriptive easement. From what I understand of the facts, it sounds like you stand a pretty good chance of succeeding in proving a prescriptive easement. I would continue to refuse to pay for part of a survey. If he wants his property...

    mobile home rules

    No, you have no legal right to move in. It's not your property. If she invites you, you could live there as her guest. Or she could rent to you, which would give you some rights as a tenant.

    Consumer Law, Warranties Is this actionable?

    Yes. Whether you will succeed depends on all the circumstances, but any of the above seem like reasonable starting points. Found it where? I have no idea what it is, or whether it describes the law in your jurisdiction.

    easement liability

    I don't know the law specifically in your jurisdiction, but generally a) you are allowed on his property in enjoyment of your easement, and b) he has no right to demand a written reply (or indeed any reply) to his question. If he wants legal advice, he can go consult a lawyer. Not to condone...

    Premises Liability broken ankle, do I have a case?

    I don't know how successful you'll be, but I'd at least talk to a personal injury attorney. You should be able to find one that will give you a free or cheap initial consult.

    Will, Trusts and Estate

    A will on a computer is not a valid will. It needs to have been printed, signed, and witnessed (in line with whatever the rules are in your jurisdiction). What happens now is you contact the probate court and see whether that will that was on the computer is in fact his last will and is...

    Neighbor problems

    Are there condo rules about noise? What about city bylaws? The fact that the police were still being called at 2:30 a.m. suggests your daughter's party was going into the wee hours. You say the cops heard the noise from outside. That, IMHO, is pretty good cause for the neighbour to get...

    Premises Liability broken ankle, do I have a case?

    That first picture - is that person pointing at the "water main" you stepped in? Is that the way it's supposed to be? Looks like there is broken cement and pavers around it.

    spousal rights to marital home joint tenant right to survivorship father-in-law and h

    Quite likely. It leaves you with a claim for unjust enrichment or constructive trust, for some interest in the house. Whose name is on the mortgage? Have you discussed the impending situation with your husband and father in law?
