I received a phone message from someone claiming I am being sued due to a Fingerhut account from 2005. They also contacted my brother in a nasty manner. When I called back, the person provided my SSN and was uncooperative when I mentioned my ex-husband used my SSN for his purchases. I am located in New York and am unsure if this is a scam or a legitimate issue. What should I do next to protect myself and determine the validity of this claim?

Is it legal for a rental complex to tow vehicles without a resident sticker, and could the complex be profiting from this arrangement?

My 84-year-old dad with vascular dementia owns 1/4 of my house until my mom's will is probated. He has hit my son and is letting others live in the house without my consent. I want to know my legal rights and how to get my personal possessions out of the house if he won't let me in.

I owe the state of Montana over ten thousand dollars and the interest is adding up. I have not contacted the IRS directly concerning this matter. I have an accountant who sent a letter of hardship to the IRS, but the issue has not been resolved. I also inherited a lot of money when my husband died in 2017, which I foolishly invested in a marijuana store, losing everything except my home. What steps should I take to address this tax debt?

I received a small claims/debt claim case citation in my current county in Texas. It requires me to respond within fourteen days. I believe my debt was sold to a third party. Is this a scam, and if not, what should I do given my current financial situation (unemployed, taking care of disabled children, and dependent on my husband's income)?

My grandparents and uncle have passed away, and the property in Binghampton, NY, is not in probate yet. If I pay the taxes due, will I have any rights to the property?
