Not if you know how to properly do it yourself.

Is there a form I can fill out stating that she grants me 25% of estate including insurance (life)

Your girlfriend will have to prepare/sign a Last Will and Testament naming her you as to 25% if she desires to leave you a certain percentage of assets from her estate. She would also name the other beneficiaries and their percentages.
She should also name you as a 25% beneficiary of her... Read more »
I was searching for liens against me on the Courts record and State Farm had a lien placed on me 20 years ago. Does this drop off after a certain period of time?. I’ve never been taken to court on it and it doesn’t show on my credit reports

Generally, in most states a judgment needs to be renewed every 6 years or so. First, you need to look at the law for that state. Then you can either ignore the lien, or file a case to have the lien "extinguished." I'd start by talking to the administrator of wherever the lien was filed. If it's... Read more »
I was arrested in an underage prostitution sting, they towed the truck I drove to the meeting away and will not release it back to me. They have told me they are looking at forfeiture, is there anything I can do?

It's complicated because it can be both a civil and criminal matter. There are recent Supreme Court cases on this issue. You need to retain a lawyer immediately to figure this out, or you will lose the truck by default.
Can she have the trust changed - only to specify that if she passes before distribution of assets of the trust, for her percent to go to her daughter? At current the trust states any departed beneficiaries percent is to be split amongst the remaining siblings. She is trying to prepare her own... Read more »

When you say trying to prepare her own trust, is she working with an estate planning attorney? If she is ill and near death, this is not the time to be DIYing. She has more important things to worry about like spending time with family, seeing friends, and doing what she whats to do to the extent... Read more »
I have K1s stating my percentage ownership. Is K1s good enough to establish percentage of ownership?

Good question. Usually, a business partner can't change your ownership percentage in a partnership or company without your permission or unless you have given the partner some sort of right to do so. There are tax implications associated with that change (especially if you are in a partnership or... Read more »
I bought a house from person X and I need to Pay them May 1, then corona-world happened and all the lenders stopped lending. I have three lenders working on a loan, racing to get it done, but am contemplating on offering person x $$ to extend the due date by 30 days. Via 107.080, it seems I do not... Read more »

This is about negotiating, and you should consider extending the deadline to make sure you do not lose the property.
Make sure you have a modification to the contract to make sure they do not try to pull the rug.
best luck

My husband and I have pour over wills as part of our trust. What steps are needed to recieve his inheritance? Do I have to open a probate case as executor of his will? This inheritance will be over $150,000.00

Some Trusts and Wills provide that a beneficiary must survive the writer of the Trust or Will by a certain number of days to receive the inheritance. However, if the cousin's trust lacks such a provision, your husband's gift under the cousin's trust goes to his estate. The successor trustee of the... Read more »

The officer that was involved with the civil standby during the attempt said this is a civil matter and not criminal. I don't want cash compensation. Can a judge make a ruling, forcing her to return my bird?

Try reposting under Animal/Dog Law. There's no guarantee that all posts are answered, but the attorneys in that category would have the best insight into such a matter. Good luck

Highly likely, yes.
I filed single cause I didn’t know you could file married but filing separately. I’m going to send an amended return along with the transcript. Would that be an issue?

Should be no issue. They want to see what your income was for the most recent tax year.
i suffered and got worse for months until a doctor finally figured out, from the ER's EKG that I had a heart attack, and major blockage. Do I have a negligence or malpractice case?

You could possibly have one. An attorney couldn't offer a definitive answer based on these brief facts alone. But what you describe is the legal theory of "failure to diagnose." As a starting point, you could contact a Nevada medical malpractice attorney to discuss the matter in further detail. If... Read more »
My wife and I live in California and own two investment properties (single family homes) in Nevada. We recently set up a California Trust. We would like to transfer the Nevada properties to the trust. I have read from a variety of what appear to be reputable sources that use of a quitclaim deed... Read more »

Another important consideration is whether or not you have title insurance on those properties. My best advice would be for you to take your existing deeds and your title insurance policies to a real estate attorney for review and to prepare the deed into your trust. Another really good option... Read more »
I live in California

Even if they refuse you can go to a local SS Office or order a birth certificate online or visit your local City Hall in the town you were born in.
Hope this helps.

Yes. Of course. It's very basic that you must maintain an address (and register) while you are on parole. Your probation officer must be able to get in touch with you.
I petitioned for her and entered the US as a LPR last year.

Based on the brief information you shared, it seems that she would be eligible for a passport. That said, you should contact an experienced immigration attorney to provide further information and discuss.

Hello, I was arrested for Assault/ Deadly Weapon, which was amended to Misdemeanor Disorderly Conduct, in 2010. It is non DV related. The conviction carries a possible maximum sentence of 6 months.

This type of conviction is not an automatic bar to prohibiting you from possessing firearms, but you should get a Nevada attorney to seal your prior criminal record. And always fully disclose if you are asked about prior arrests/convictions of certain types when you apply for a firearm permit or... Read more »
