Q. My landlord and my landlords current leasing agent is not named on my lease. Can they enforce an inspection of the prop?

March 15, 2024

A: It depends. If the former agent was acting as an agent of the landlord then the lease should transfer to the new agent, sometimes. However, inspections are fairly common for both commercial and residential properties. It is probably not worth your time to hire an attorney to determine if they have the right or not and/or jeopardize your relationship with the landlord. Some fights are not worth picking while others are worth fighting. You need to determine what this is and get legal counsel, if appropriate.

Q. My wife wants a divorce and "agrees" to split everything 50/50. Are we legally obligated to have a lawyer?

March 8, 2024

A: No, although it may be a bad idea.

I believe the Colorado Supreme court just approved a rule regarding licensed Legal Paraprofessionals. I am not sure if it has taken effect yet but it has been a highly contested item. You should look into what they can and can't do. If I recall, they are non-attorneys but can perform certain tasks that attorneys can normally do. My understanding is that they may be able to help fill out certain paperwork. Do your research and ask plenty of questions when you talk to one to ensure they can help you file. But that may be a low-cost option.

Q. What rights do I have if my dad left no will, had no bills and my sister the oldest took charge of his estates ?

March 8, 2024

A: This is a complicated one.

If your father died with no will then everything subject to probate passes intestate. Life insurance is often not subject to probate but it can be. If it passes intestate, if you and your sister are your father’s only living relatives then you may be entitled to a share of that. Divorced spouses often do not count.

I think at this point you need to reach out to an attorney to help you look into this. If your father had life insurance, I am sure there is an attorney out there who would take the time to look at it.
