    The facts you provide are very limited. Who would force you to sign it over and why? You mention divorce, maybe you and the other member of the LLC were married? If so, the ownership of the LLC interest should be part of the divorce decree. If not, not sure what the divorce has to do with it. You would need to have the operating agreement reviewed as mentioned in another answer. Hard to be more helpful without more facts.

    I think the other answer is correct. There may also be CT law that would require that such fees only be paid to a licensed real estate agent. If you do enough of this business you might want to look into the costs and requirements for the licensing of real estate agents. Then you could possibly affiliate yourself with a real estate broker and receive commissions for such referrals. You could possibly also list your houses for sale as the listing agent. This becomes involved and there...

    I agree with the other attorney answers. Also if the final account has not been approved, you can bring your concerns to the probate court, such as by filing an objection to the final account, reequesting a hearing so you have the opportunity to ask these questions, etc. You do not state your relationship to the estate (heir, beneficiary, creditor...?). You refer to both trustee and executor, sounds like maybe there is an estate and a trust? In any event, you need to seek a local attorney...

    Debt negotiators are supposed to be licensed in CT and not accept advance fees. I would contact the State Department of Banking or the Attorney General's office in Hartford. Best of luck.

    This cannot really be answered without reviewing the lease and any other relevant correspondence. However, based on the general facts you present, it appears that the other professional is a tenant of the landlord, not of you. His legal arrangement appears to be with the landlord not with you, so it would appear to be the landlord who would have to seek to have the co-tenant leave. You should ask the landlord to do this; although I am not sure how having this person in the space negatively...

  6. Do we need to place a lien to get our money back?

    I am a little confused by the question. It appears that someone had a court judgment against tou and you paid that judgment off. If that judgment was recorded in the real estate records against you (in other words a lien was placed) then that lien would need to be released. SInce you have a document called Release of Lien, it would appear that indeed a lien was placed and you should record that release to extinguish the lien. Hopefully that helps! Best of luck.

    file a police report definitely (you should have at the time) - the other driver left the scene of an accident which is generally a crime. You should also consider getting your own lawyer if the damages are significant and/or you do not have your own insurance.

    I agree that the tax would be on what you are actually being charged, i.e. $147.25 but the agreement should state if that is inclusive of tax or if tax would be added. Maybe if you contact the company and explain your confusion and what you feel was not explained by them they will agree to modify the agreement by reducing the price a little. Best of luck.

  9. If I maintain an abandoned property for over 6 months, do I have any rights to that property?

    No this does not give you any rights in the property. It is nice of you as a neighbor, and probably a little self-interest too so as not to have an eyesore next door. Eventually the bank will own it and they probably will not be so happy to have you going on their property even if you are well intentioned.

    Every entity has an Agent for Service of Process listed with the Secretary of State so that lawsuits and other legal papers can be officially served on the LLC. It appears that you are that agent for service (you can look up the LLC on the CT Secretary of State website to verify). It appears that this lawyer has a judgment against the LLC for unpaid legal fees. What you have received as agent for service appears to be an execution, meaning that the lawyer as a creditor is seeking to satisfy...
