I've got a few questions about how to negotiate over a property in Oregon and negotiations are over the property as well as the resources, equipment, valuables, etc. on the property as included. I paid a $10,000 amount to have it not be put on the market and get first ride refusal if they didn't put it up for sale however, some things the other party did caused me to skeptical of their honesty and I don't know what else they could be up to at that point. I told them this being in December in both writing and verbally that "I wanted my money back you continue to negotiating, but you don't have to give me any exclusivity," they basically refuse to do so so I noted this down when this happened. I have emails showing me further requesting it back and the date requested back. I have a recording of the entirety of our negotiations and they are legally recorded. I need my money back and I don't see any other way other than to put a lien on the house for sale or have a crew interest. I believe he is in Wisconsin at the moment as am I but I'm not 100% sure. Obviously I know the location of his Oregon property and there's a lot more to get into about different levels of fraud. Do I go straight to Oregon to get an attorney and how do I do that affordably? What's the most aggressive action that I can take, and the most I can get being reasonable. Affordable but still getting my money back.

Hi there. I’m assuming a property that has a VA loan. The property has the main home and then an ADU. The VA loan requires owner occupancy. I run a group home out of the main home. Could I move into the ADU to satisfy that requirement? What would be required for me to establish owner occupancy?

Does the beneficiary/inheritance only become effective when both my spouse and I die? We want to ensure that if only one has died, everything continues to be full ownership to the other spouse. What address should we put on the trust given it is for a house we are buying and expect to be at once it’s in place? Also, should we wait to list the house we are buying until closing when setting up the trust? Does someone who is not a beneficiary of a percentage of assets, but is specific to a vehicle, need to be listed directly as beneficiary (with 0% general share)? Do contingent beneficiaries need to be listed as beneficiaries or just referenced in full name on the inheritance description?

My legal maiden name was not used on my Oregon application for marriage. Instead, since I was 6 years old, my stepfather's last name was used. He did not adopt me. Now, I need to prove that the two persons with those names are both me. I would prefer to have the marriage application corrected, if possible. All I have is some school report cards in the name of Whiteman.

Last year, I was admitted to the hospital after I was found unresponsive in my bed by my wife. My father was called to come and look at me as I came in and out of consciousness. He ended up picking me up on his back and taking me to his car and he took me to the hospital. The emergency doctors ultimately diagnosed me with spinal meningitis and kept me there for three days. I had an MRI of my spine and I was found to have compression fractures on 6 of my vertebrae (I had a cane for 4 months afterwards and couldn't stand up straight). As we were leaving, a nurse suggested that I see a neurologist. The neurologist suspected it was epilepsy. I told him about all the times I had collapsed unexpectedly throughout my life and I was flabbergasted that this was the first diagnosis that explained all these random occurrences. The earliest I can remember was when I was 15. He said I would have to wait for it to happen again. It happened again a month later and I was formally diagnosed with epilepsy and mild brain damage, specifically mild neurocognitive disorder. I am furious that the hospital thought I had a seizure (as they asked my family if I was an alcoholic), but misdiagnosed me and billed me for services for something I didn't have. Also, the neurologist was a piece of shit and shouted at me when I couldn't recall what my job was at the time. Also, I saw a neurologist ten years prior after another seizure at work made me collapse in the hallway. I am now unable to work in the same capacity as I did before and my marriage is falling apart as my condition worsens and my emotions and anger change all the time. I was wondering if there's any capacity for medical malpractice here as I feel furious at the medical system. I had a seizure recently on vacation and the doctor there thought I was on drugs. I am so disappointed as 1 in 26 are supposed to have epilepsy and I have felt no compassion on my journey at all. Just wondering if I have a case here.
