I have an extra car that I have been letting a friend drive for the past 3 years. She has been paying me monthly to use it, and I use that money to pay the finance company for the monthly car payment. My name is the only one listed on the title and the bank loan is solely in my name. I have decided that I now want the car back as I want to sell it and be done with it completely. I’ve given her the option to buy it from me; however, she doesn’t have the money to purchase it. She says because she has been paying me monthly to use it for 3 years that she has rights and ownership in the car. I don’t think she would have any but wanted to ask as she has said she’s going to consult with an attorney. We had no contract, or anything on it through any of the years. Where is this occurring? What steps have you taken so far? Is there anything else the Lawyer should know before I connect you?

12 years ago, I received a judgment from the bank for my truck being repossessed. I bought property earlier this year and now want to sell it, but the title company found the judgment and is going to take almost $18k from the sale of my land. The original judgment amount was $9990.14 with 5% interest per year for each additional year it wasn't paid. Is there anything I can do to reduce the penalties, especially since I never knew the bank filed a judgment against me, and they won't produce the paperwork from what they sold the vehicle for at auction?

I am a landlord dealing with a tenant who is behind on rent and utilities, causing potential property damage due to lack of heating during freezing temperatures. The tenant has also added a co-signer without proper authorization and refuses to provide necessary information. What are my legal options to address these issues and ensure the tenant either fulfills their obligations or vacates the property?

My brother, a Ugandan citizen, urgently needs his passport back from the IND in the Netherlands, where it was accidentally sent while attempting to get a visa for a business trip. He has requested its return but it is still being held. I am a US citizen and need a lawyer to pursue this matter for him as there is a matter of urgency for him to travel before the end of the year. What steps can be taken, and will a legal notice from the passport owner or someone residing in Uganda be accepted by the Netherlands Immigration and Naturalization Service?
