[GA] Can I sue a property manager for hiring a dissolved maintenance company whose work damaged my property?

The maintenance company has been dissolved with the state of Georgia since 2023. However they have been completing work orders on my property. The maintenance company sent me an invoice to trash appliances, I responded an hour later telling them not to trash appliances but they trashed them anyway. I am requesting compensation on appliances, loss of rent due to giving tenants first month free to purchase their own appliances, and possible reimbursement for the work that was completed by a non-license company.

[GA] Can an HOA board convert to a POA without homeowner approval and can residents legally reverse it?

Can a GA POA be rescinded by the property owners in the community if the board decides to change from an HOA to a POA surreptitiously without the homeowners' consent? Our covenants say that the time to create a POA has expired since the declarant (the builder) changeover happened over a year ago.

[GA] How can an out-of-state power of attorney be made valid for use at a bank?

I really need your help. This is a long story, but you need to understand it to help me. I live in Georgia. My brother has a house and bank accounts in Georgia. I have an old power of attorney that was done in South Carolina in 2000 when we lived there. Due to many serious medical problems, we moved to Georgia, and I never thought to update the power of attorney. Because of my health issues, this was overlooked. My brother bought a house in Augusta about 18 months ago. At the time, he was in South Carolina helping friends.

The home in question has a Property Deed in the names of my wife and her sister. The sister (my sister-in-law) is going to transfer all her interests in the home to me without stipulating any monetary value using a Quit Claim Deed.

[GA] Can a landlord require full monthly rent when a month-to-month tenant moves out mid-month?

My tenant is moving out Nov 15. They gave notice on Sept 15 and it is a month to month lease using this form. I am stating that full month of November is due and I'm giving them a credit back for essentially 1 week rent as a gesture/ goodwill. They are demanding it be prorated to the full amount. They did enter in via a few days proration at the beginning. They assumed proration at the end without requesting it. What are my options?

[GA] How do you change a child’s name with both parents’ consent and mismatched birth records?

I'm finally ready for my son to get a legal name change. He was born abroad to two U.S. citizens, but his Consular Report of Birth Abroad has a last name that’s different from his Social Security card and state ID. I’m trying to verify what forms I need to file for a legal name change so he can get a driver’s permit.
