Immigration hold?

Asked by a user in Fort Lauderdale, FL - about 3 years ago.

Well it depends why the immigration hold is there. If he has prior offenses then the result of this one may not matter. However, the criminal offense is normally resolved prior to deportation. If this is his first offense, then a not guilty verdict or a dismissal may release the immigration hold. If you would like to talk more please contact me for a free consult.

Help. I need a criminal defense lawyer to answer.

Asked by a user in Tampa, FL - almost 3 years ago.

You face a max of 5 years in prison on each 3rd degree felony. However, often times people charged with these crimes who have no criminal record may be able to enter a diversion program and avoid a conviction. Contact a local attorney asap. If you need a referral please contact me.

Is a condominium association allowed to deny an owner the right to allow relative to occupy their unit without a lease?

Asked by a user in Miami, FL - about 3 years ago.

You need to check the condo association documents to see what the requirements are for your building for new tenants. Often times associations do require a lease and their approval of the tenant, regardless of relative or not. As for the homestead exemption, if it is not your primary residence then it should not be exempted anyhow by state of FL law.

If someone is on your premises without your consent they are trespassing. Insurance companies are known to watch certain people. I recommend you consult with legal counsel and let them handle the insurance companies for you. We offer free consultations. Please contact us at (786) 371-4431 for more information. Harris Gilbert

What is more important probation fees or fines

Asked by a user in Jay, FL - about 3 years ago.

The most important thing to do is pay as much as you can, make an effort. You can't violate your probation for failing to make a payment that you don't have. That is not a "willful" violation. Ask your PO if you can fill out a form to waive your probation fees as a financial hardship. See if you can have the court fines converted to a civil issue at the end of probation if you are still in arrears.

What legal rights do I have if I was in a car accident with a suspended license? I was not found at fault. (Florida)

Does a company have to include the information that a gps unit is refurbished in its description?

Asked by a user in Orlando, FL - about 3 years ago.

Sounds like a material fact was not disclosed. If you are not happy with the product you should seek a reversal of your transaction directly through the company you bought it from.
