I have had a preliminary consultation with a divorce attorney. The retaining cost is $4,000 which is a bit steep currently. I decided to file the preliminary paperwork myself as a result. If, in fact an attorney is needed further into the process I plan to certainly secure that service. My husband was diagnosed with dementia last October and his needs far outweigh what I am reasonably able to provide. During consult with the attorney, she mentioned that the state may mandate a representing advocate husband due to his diagnosis. Is this the case? Additionally, my children sold the home to us with $60,000 equity for my sake to be close to the grands. Can this be considered? I have not filed yet.

A tenant moved a woman and her kid in without telling me and they aren’t on the lease, so in my mind it’s a breach of contract for having additional people living there. But now they’re saying they have 90 days because a kid is living there.

I recently discovered people living in a run down house I own in Ohio. I had no prior knowledge of that and gave no approval for them to do so. The local police told me that I need to file for eviction in the courts. I do not know what eForm eviction form to use or how to alter it. They have no lease and pay no rent. As a matter of fact I do not know their names.

I was just slapped with $11k in child support arrears due to my ex objecting to the original order last year. The magistrate didn’t allow me to present evidence, so my ex ended up being granted an increased amount from me and the $11k in arrears calculated back to April 2024. Will I be arrested even while paying it? Or would my ex be able to get me arrested for it being such a large amount?
