- Q. Working for a bank do you automatically get help for legal services?
- A: Some employers offer prepaid legal services as an employee benefit, however it is not likely that all banks offer this option.
- Q. I got divorced, was to have my equity by12/30/22. She is finally selling the house. Do I have any recourse for delay?
- A: It depends on how the agreement was drafted and the reason for the delay as well as it caused any prejudice to you. However, courts don't usually get involved in enforcing something that has been completed, even if late. There is no one size fits all answer to the question.
- Q. After the CFI report has been filed, and the magistrate said supplemental/rebuttal report needs filed within 14 days…
- A: Only a CFI can write a rebuttal report. However, you can submit whatever evidence you have in your testimony in court. There are rules of evidence surrounding character evidence and impeaching someone. If testimony is admitted about the lie, then you can impeach the lie. The CFI Report will be admitted in its entirety so you can testify as to what you believe is not accurate in the report and submit whatever evidence that you have to contradict the lie.
