    Self separation

    You can DIY divorce. Exactly how you do it depends on where you live. Talk to your local court clerk.

    Father left no will

    What state did they live in when the father died? Since your cousin's father died without a will, his property will be divided up according to that state's laws of intestacy. Your cousin quite likely has a right to some share of the house. Whether she can stop the step-mom from selling it is...

    what to do if she files a slow pay motion

    Why didn't you know about this until after it was completed? Maybe you can get the order vacated because you didn't receive proper notice.

    Taking Over Ownership

    As I said above, if a will can't be produced, then the father died intestate, and his property is divided up according to the intestacy laws. Being in jail does not disentitle the siblings to their share of the inheritance. It might be possible to title the property in your fiancee's name as...

    international divorce forms/procedures

    I believe you can still do a divorce by agreement even if he can't appear - he can sign the papers in the UK and send them back to you. If that is not available, then you can get a default divorce. Agree on what the terms of the divorce are, file papers accordingly, serve him in the UK, and...

    Taking Over Ownership

    You can't put the house into somebody's name without them being entitled to it. So the big question is, who is entitled to it? When you say it was "supposed" to be left to the father, do you mean it WAS left to him? If it wasn't, why not? What happened? If the father died with no will, his...

    Quitclaim to cancel a Quitclaim?

    I waS going to say, if it hadn't been filed, just have him destroy it. Since it has been filed, might be possible for the two of you to agree to have it rescinded. Consult with the county clerk. If that is not possible, he can quitclaim the property back to you. How he retains mineral...

    Alimony

    I agree absolutely. In many jurisdictions, threatening criminal prosecution to attain civil goals is a serious breach of the code of conduct. (Belittling someone is probably not a breach, but neither is it good practice.) Talk to a lawyer and consider making a complaint to the bar society.

    Judgement Against

    Depending on your jurisdiction, they might not be able to execute the judgment against your vehicle. Some assets - vehicles, tools, personal effects - are often immune from execution. I don't know the laws of your particular jurisdiction. I suggest you consult with a local attorney. They...

    Discrimination by a physican

    I'm thinking medical codes of conduct might prohibit withholding medical treatment on religious grounds. But I'm not sure what happened here amounts to grounds for complaint. What do you mean by "he pushed you off on other doctors"? Doctors refer patients to other doctors for lots of...

    Bad mmechanical advice from pro

    Only a court knows for sure. He might be liable, if you can prove that he gave negligent advicew and that this caused the damage to your car. I think it's pretty clear you relied on it, and would have done the repairs had it not been for it. It is less clear that he was negligent. Why did...

    Mother in law

    As long as she keeps up the payments, she doesn't lose the house. If/when she dies, the house passes to her son, subject to the mortgage, and he gets to keep up the payments.

    Contract Help ...

    The SIU contract doesn't say anything about rotations. It just deals with wages. If you are governed by the other JPGs you posted, as I read them, a tour of duty is between 90 and 120 days or as scheduled by the company. You are entitled to paid travel when you complete a tour.

    Judgement Against

    They're garnishing your account monthly? That strikes me as bizarre. Ask your bank to see the garnishment orders. If they were garnishing your wages, they could take a certain percentage that depends on what your "disposable" income is. They likely can't take the vehicle, but they could...

    Discovery question

    He's not entitled to your notes unless he can prove some sort of exception to work-product privilege. You don't need to be a lawyer to claim it. If he wants to know what his client said under oath, he can go get transcripts. If he asks you in deposition how you can prove his client is lying...
