My ex-husband died under suspicious circumstances at the age of 56 on May 26, 2022, while under the care of his second wife, whom my two children and I suspect of poisoning or having something to do with his death. The death certificate and what she claims he died of are not the same. The police have rejected our family's request to investigate. The widow has family connections in the police department and had him cremated immediately. She stands to inherit $3-5 million as his surviving spouse. His estate is currently in probate, and we would like the truth about his death. If the police refuse to investigate, how do we proceed with an inquiry into his death? Do we need to hire an attorney, private investigator, or go above the local police department? Who do we go to present our evidence?

If the lease does not specify the address for the insurance and only mentions adding the name of the apartment to the additional insured, and the landlord gives only one week's notice to update to a new address, then charges and states it's a violation of the lease, is that legal? I thought they had to give 30 days' notice and cannot change rules without adding an addendum to the lease.

I'm frustrated because my ex-partner is getting court dates earlier than mine for our divorce proceedings. How can I ensure my motion filings are heard on the same date as his, and is there any way to address issues like him not taking a parenting class or submitting incomplete financial affidavits after the divorce was finalized in September 2022?
