The previous homeowner passed 4 years ago and the home has remained empty. The next of kin have shown no interest in the property. Can a neighbor care for the property (agricultural and house) and become the owner using an adverse possession claim?
Yes, if you hold it exclusively for long enough. The minimum period in this situation would be 10 years.
I just found out that his in collection because he never paid the dog off. I’ve been taking care of “our” dog for the past year. I will pay what he owes but I want to put the dog under my name. I don’t want to give up the dog. What can I do to get custody?
It sounds like you already have "custody." What you want is ownership. Write up a simple agreement that he is selling you the dog in exchange for you paying off what he owes to the seller.
I’m renting to own a house for 10 years but the landlord wants me to pay the taxes and I’m having to totally remodel the house because it was gutted just wondering is that how it’s supposed to be or is he responsible for the taxes until I own it
The answer entirely depends on the terms of your contract. Take it to a lawyer for review.
That being said, there are very few "rent to own" deals where someone isn't getting ripped off. Sometimes it's the "seller," sometimes it's the "buyer."... Read more »

What are the chances he will get time served? They are giving 2 for 1 and he does have to be reinstated on his probation which he had six months left on that
There is no way for attorneys who are unfamiliar with your husband's cases to have a clue whether he will get time served or serve a 1 year jail sentence. You haven't even told us what the charges are. The truth is, any lawyer who could know the answer to your question would be burned as... Read more »
SS card currently reflects 1st name, middle initial and married name. I’m divorced and requesting to change my name back to 1st name, middle name and maiden name. Ive recently updated my drivers license to what I’m petitioning for.

It sounds like you are having difficulty paying the mortgage and are trying to avoid foreclosure. A quit claim deed won't help in that situation (it doesn't even convey the land in Texas, and should virtually never be used).
An adverse possession claim is a way of acquiring... Read more »
Sorry, without some facts, it's impossible to provide a helpful comment.
First, I am not a Texas attorney. That being said, generally there is no evidence presented at the appellate level. The case proceeds from a final judgment of the trial court and whatever evidence was presented there.
He was defending himself and the girls he was with as this kid was going around the park bullying and assaulting girls. Touching them. My son who is 14 told them to back off multiple times and he shoved my son who in turn punched him. The kid ran to his dad who called the cops because he said my... Read more »
Stop talking to the detective and have a private consultation with a criminal defense attorney who practices law in the county where the fight occurred... not just any criminal defense attorney, but one who has experience with juvenile cases because they follow different procedures.
He needs an attorney that will fight to get him mental health help and not being institutionalized because that will do nothing to help him. He has no money and lost his job because of it. I’m not sure what to do because I’m the victim and he cannot have contact with me. His court appointed... Read more »

And said I stole his phone he dropped the phone in my yard attacked me and my husband
The use of force may be legally justified to prevent theft or to prevent escape after a theft. However, if he was mistaken and had simply dropped his phone then there was no theft and his use of force was not justified. In that scenario, it sounds like the repo man committed the crime of Assault... Read more »
