I Never Collected Child Support from my Daughter’s Father, Now that She’s Older can I Start Collecting Child Support?
My daughter is now 19 years old. Here father and I were never married and I did not pursue Child Support from him. She has been in contact with him over the last few years. He continually tells her how well his business is doing, but when she asked for a small amount of money he became ballistic with her. I want her to be able to get some money from this man, is there anyway that she can do that?

My Neighbor Asked me to Grant her an Unrecorded Easement, How Should I Handle this?
My neighbor has asked me to grant her an unrecorded easement that would provide emergency egress from her back yard, through my back yard, to the street. It seems that I would be giving up substantial property rights were I to grant the easement, and that the unrecorded quality of the easement seems sneaky. What should I watch out for?
After Agreeing to Allowing my Neighbor Access to his Water Pipe which lies on my Property, He’s Trying to Sue me for not Fixing it, What can I do?
recently i started to bull doze a road through this property at one point i encountered a wet spewage area that keep my road wet since i could not have this wet place in my drive i hired a backhoe to come and dig down and insert a pipe under the ground to try a channel the water away to the road ditch. when they dug down they encountered a 1 inch water pipe that was broke— the pipe was cut and capped–i then contacted the water district and surrounding homes to see if this line went to any of them—-no one claimed this water line— 2–months later a plumbing man contacted me—to ask a question about the water line—–seems that a house that had been for sale for a year bordering my property needed its water turned on—when they did — they had no water– i contacted the owner and he agreed to trench in another line if i would let him. i said ok—now 3 weeks later i get a summons that i am being sued in small claims court for not fixing his water line- what can i do?
Disputes with Shared Retaining Wall
We and our adjacent neighbors are in a dispute over a 4 foot high concrete retaining wall that straddles both of our property lines. We’ve had large clay terra-cotta pots sitting on top of retaining wall with lattice in the pots to obscure the neighbors privacy fence, which is few feet back from the retaining wall. Recently (last week), they decided to start objecting to the clay pots (which are on their property, according to their survey). Would mediation/arbitration be a better, less expensive way to go?
My Neighbor Posted No Tresspassing Signs on our Easement, Can he do This?
The easement borders my entire property line, I have a private driveway off the easement to my house. The neighbor who lives directly behind me says that when I pull off the paved part of the easement over the grass part of the easement (approx. 10 ft) to get to my front yard, I am tresspassing over his property. He has called the police 4 times in the past 6 months accusing me of trespassing when I park my car in my yard. Do I have the right to access my property from the easement? Does he have the right to call the state police to my house everytime I park in my yard?
Does my Home Owner’s Association have the Right to Dig a Trench and Leave a Mess on my Property?
I have a 1 acre peice of property in a gated community. There is a 14 ft utility easement at the front of my property as there is a transformer there. The HOA came in on my property and installed Electrical power panels to service a gate for back entry/ exit to the sub division. They did not have my permission. They also dug a trench completely across my property about 2 feet wide to reach the transformer for power to the gate and when finished left my property in a mess. My question is, did the HOA have the right to do what they did without my permission?
Do I Need to Grant the Town the Right to an Easement on my Property? Can I Negotiate for Better Terms?
I purchased a commercial building in Maryland and attempted to get an occupancy permit for a tenant. The town conditioned approval with a request for me to grant easements to the town for the maintenance of sewer lines running under my property and to enter my property to inspect them. These easements, if granted, would severely limit my ability to add on to my building and park in my lot. If they don’t agree to negotiate more favorable terms (to me) can I cap off the sewer lines with impunity? May they condition an occupancy permit on an unrelated grant of an easement to them?
I Helped to Maintain an Irrigation Pipe on my Neighbors Property, Now there are New Owners Wanting to Remove it, What can I do?
Have access to irrigation water via a pipeline across neighbors property. Helped to pay for pipeline that supplies water to their parcel, and to our pipeline. New owner says since pipeline is not specified or noted in title search, there is no legal basis and his lawyer has notified us that unless we can show legal basis they are going to remove the pipeline. I believe our basis is implied easement. Am I correct, an what is the best way to establish this?
A Contractor Built a Water Line on my Property Easement and not my Neighbor’s, Is This Legal?
I recently discovered that a contractor has run a water line to the house that he is building on property adjacent to ours.

What is the Most Effective way to Settle Easement Issues with Neighbors? Most Inexpensive?
Because we’ve lived in the house (for 12 years) and maintained the retaining wall before and after it was rebuilt, and paid entirely for the reconstruction of the wall, does this give us a right to a prescriptive easement (i.e. right to own the wall completely) overriding the neighbor’s survey, which they claim gives them exclusive ownership rights? Would mediation/arbitration be a better, less expensive way to go?

Our Small Community is Without a Home Owner’s Association, but Some of Us are Still Paying Dues, What Should we do?
I live in a small (15 home) community outside Charlotte, NC. The community developer controlled the HOA initially, though within the past couple years, several new homes have been built and sold, and the new homeowners were told via realtors and at closing that there was no HOA and no fees due. The rest of the community has been living under the CC&R documents and paying lake access fees. Do we have an actionable HOA or not? If not, what do we need to do? Do the original CC&Rs stand?
