I received a 3-day notice on July 3rd. Do I have 5 days to respond to the notice, and do I count the day I was served, holidays, and weekends? Should I respond directly to the landlord's lawyer or file a response in court? If court, what court and department do I file? Is it advisable to talk directly to the landlord's lawyer or be represented by my own counsel? Do I need to fill out a specific document to respond, is there a fee, and will there be a hearing before a judge? If I file a response, what should I expect next? If I do not contest owing rent but need time due to being laid off, would the court be accommodating in giving an extension?

I am one of five heirs to 48 acres of land in Florida, which has never been divided or surveyed. The land is in all five of our names. I offered to buy out the other heirs, but a lawyer suggested it would have to go through probate first. What does this mean, and why is probate necessary?

Besides the clerk of court, what other personnel can check on the status of a motion (if the motion was filed or who is the judge assigned to the case), if the original judge of the case has passed and the lawyer representing the client’s motion is non-responsive?

My child’s father was hit by a car and hurt badly. His lawyer says he might get a significant amount of money. I'm worried he might spend it all and not save anything for our daughter, as he has done before with an inheritance. Do I have any legal right to make him put money in a savings account he cannot touch? We live in NJ.

I'm a California resident and have been accused of harboring a runaway underage friend, leading to a kidnapping charge and an arrest warrant. How can I clear my name and what should I do next?
