I called this place because a person asked me to help her with a problem she has ( living situation ) about to be homeless. She had a case open with an employee that no longer works there but she didn’t know because no one ever called her to tell her this . I called two different people more than 3 weeks ago .. I’m waiting for someone to call me back . The lady that’s 71 years old had no choice than to go to a shelter because Apparently no one has time to return my message. I would give no stars but that’s not an option . Very disappointed . I hear people recommend this place don’t know why ? I guess it might be another because of covid excuse .. that’s just over used .πŸ‘ŽπŸΌ

Questions & Answers

My daughter left her home because of mental abuse. Her husband is now telling her she needs to give him notice if she needs to get into their apartment for anything. I told her she needed to go to police before she left. What should she do?

Tell her to have the police meet her there, each time she needs to go there. & tell her NOT to get out of her car until the police get there. AND tell her to get a gun.

Yes, you have an excellent case. And as a tenant, you do have rights. (I too am a tenant, though I have discovered [re: this cesspool known as "Milwaukee"] that the city is chock-full of slumlords. So you might want to try another state altogether, since even the entire state [of Wisconsin] isn't much better).

My sister, executor of my mother's trust, has threatened to take her to court if she makes personal decisions about her possessions.My mother has short term memory but is extremely alert-- lives with my brother.Not a litigious issue?

You want a probate lawyer. Milwaukee bar association or Wisconsin bar association lawyer referral service is probably your best bet to get some direction. MOST attorneys will give you a free consultation. It's not a bad idea to take the time to talk to several to get an idea of what is or isn't worth going to court over. LAS can help craft the kind of document involved in a situation like you're touching on, but doesn't get involved in litigation over it. (For example, they can help make a Will, but won't go to court for you later if there is a disagreement). To your question, and based only on the information you provided, your sister can't say/do squat until your mom is a) officially declared incompetent, b) or your mom dies, c) and your sister lawfully executes the powers defined in that trust. Until a or b happens, your mom can just redo the trust document and strip your sister out of it. Problem solved.

My daughter pays her rent on a month to month basis. Yesterday her landlord had an inspection on apartments in her building. Due to a urine smell by her front door, she told her she wants her out of the apartment by 4/30. Can landlord do this.

Please have your daughter complete our intake form at lasmilwaukee.com/intake to determine if she qualifies for our services. We can not provide legal advice otherwise.

If you're legally parked in your assigned space and paying for your space with a tag in the window and your car gets towed, is the landlord responsible for getting your car out of the tow yard?

Darlene Boatman | Oct 18, 2020
LaTasha M | Oct 18, 2020

It depends on the reason for the towing from the tow company. You should consider going in and talk to them.

You'd have to sit down and talk about that with someone I'm sure during their walk-in clinic

How do I go about filing chapter 7 bankruptcy

S Ballman | Oct 19, 2019
LaTasha M | Oct 19, 2019

They have bankruptcy attorneys that charge a fee however they can tell you which way and how to file. Not to sure if legal aid handles that but you can always stop there and ask.

Is it true that I read on Google that I can withhold my rent until the landlord do something about this very loud music playing over my head all time of the day?

castella lockett | Oct 19, 2019
LaTasha M | Oct 19, 2019

I don't think that you can however you can contact the police to enforce the noise compliance. And after a few of those calls the landlord will get a citation.

do you handle medical insurance "balance bill" cases?

Margery Laube | Oct 19, 2019
LaTasha M | Oct 19, 2019

They help on a case by case bases it doesn't hurt to go in and ask.

There's a lot of different attorneys that handles those types of case's however legal aid is for simple case's and free legal advice for low income people.
