Regarding jobs that require driving, do I have to tell employers that I had a deferred prosecution for DWI/DUI?

Asked by a user in Tacoma, WA - almost 2 years ago.

I would read the question very carefully before answering. Does it ask if you've ever been charged with a DUI/DWI or if you've been convicted of one? During Deferred Prosecution, and even after successful completion, you have not been convicted of a DUI/DWI. However, if it asks if you've been charged with the offenses, you may have to answer positively. Although I am unaware of any law requiring such disclosure, many companies would prefer honesty, and many companies will let you go even...

How often do i have to let my ex see our 4 month old daughter and where?

Asked by a user in Vancouver, WA - almost 2 years ago.

You need a parenting plan and order of support as soon as possible! Hire an attorney for this one, without doubt and do it now. If you cannot afford one, perhaps your parents can help. It is worth it on this one.

How do I go about getting my child support adjusted? I was recently fired from my job and now am on unemployment.

Asked by a user in Gig Harbor, WA - almost 2 years ago.

It seems you have some number crunching to do. You'll want to work through the child support worksheet. Most Family Law attorneys have software that can calculate child support quickly. I suggest hiring one to do the math for you. I've listed a good publication for understanding the process and how the support is ultimately determined in WA state.

Do I pay partial rent or full rent?

Asked by a user in Tacoma, WA - almost 2 years ago.

You stated that you live in an apartment, so I'd guess you are on a term lease, rather than a month to month agreement. Your lease would fall under the Washington State Residential Landlord-Tenant Act. There are too many questions to give a solid answer. First, have you spoken with the apartment manager about this? Because, generally, there is a prorate amount if the apartment is not available at the beginning of the month. Which leads to the second question: Was the apartment available before...

Annulment

Asked by a user in Spokane, WA - almost 2 years ago.

The only reasons for an "Annulment/Declaration" are the following: 1) Because of the age of one or both of the parties and because the parties have not ratified their marriage by voluntarily cohabitating after attaining the age of consent. 2) Because of lack of required parental or court approval and because the parties have not ratified their marriage by voluntarily cohabitating after attaining the age of consent. 3) Because of a prior undissolved marriage or registered domestic...

Asked by a user in Seattle, WA - almost 2 years ago.

There is not enough information here to provide you with a suitable answer. However, In WA, when a child reaches the age of 16, they may be able to become emancipated, provided, among other things, that she can show that she can show that she has the ability to manage her financial affairs and the ability to manage her personal, social, educational, and nonfinancial affairs.

Wife cheating after six weeks of marriage. Do I seek divorce or annulment?

Asked by a user in Seattle, WA - almost 2 years ago.

Washington State does not enter an Annulment rather a Declaration Concerning Validity. The only reasons for an "Annulment/Declaration" are the following: 1) Because of the age of one or both of the parties and because the parties have not ratified their marriage by voluntarily cohabitating after attaining the age of consent. 2) Because of lack of required parental or court approval and because the parties have not ratified their marriage by voluntarily cohabitating after attaining the...

How do i get my last month's rent back?

Asked by a user in Lynnwood, WA - almost 3 years ago.

In the first instance, a written request to the property owner should work. If it doesn't, you may sue for any unpaid balance in small claims court for up to $5,000. In Washington, the property owner has 14 days from the time you vacate the premises to provide a refund of monies owed and/or a detailed statement specifying the reasons for withholding under the terms of the rental agreement. If the property owner does not comply, he/she could be liable for the entire amount of the deposit....

How should I plea?

Asked by a user in Cortland, OH - about 1 year ago.

I would definitely stick with NOT GUILTY, and, as stated above....get a lawyer who can sign on, obtain discovery and advise on your possible defenses. Do not talk about this to the judge or the prosecutor or the victim without hiring an attorney, or you might talk yourself out of any possibly defense.
