I am a desperate old lady living in a condo in Hallandale, Florida, which has been invaded by Drywood Termites. I have replaced all my kitchen and bathroom cabinets and given away all my furniture. The condo board only has a contract with a pest control company for common areas. I cannot afford a treatment. Is there a condo law that protects me concerning the termites problem, especially since other tenants can afford treatments?

I own 120 acres on the Uncompahgre, bordered on the west by forest service land. The forest service resurveyed the fences a few years ago, and our west fence was relocated 100 feet or more to the east by their request. On the east side of our property, the fence should be moved the same amount, but the property owner on the east side won't let us move the fence over because he claims it has been there a long time. He can move his fence further east onto forest service land to the new pins the forest service set. I am losing several acres, and the man next to me is damaging the ground I own on the other side of the fence. What can I do?

I am 15 years old and my adopted mother has cancer and isn't able to take care of me anymore. Can I move with my biological grandmother with my sister? Or do I have any rights to choose who I live with? If my biological grandmother wanted to adopt me now, and I agreed, could she?

My husband, a Navy Commander, fears the Navy will find out about an issue, but believes his rank will prevent discharge or loss of rank. However, he may lose retirement money and health services. If he does, a 'Contract' sounds better than nothing, which is what I will be left with if he loses everything. Should I consider a long divorce? He retires in 2 years.
