My wife and I have been seperated for 5 years. We have 1 child together and I have a stepdaughter from my wife. She has recently become homeless and was sleeping in the car with the kids. I now have my son and stepdaughter with me but I can't get them enrolled in school or anything and she won't give me permission to do so. I'm trying to do whats best for the kids. Please help me figure out where to go from here.

I need guidance on filing a petition for rent and possession or unlawful retainer. I acquired property through tax sale and the property was occupied. I offered a rental agreement to occupant and he declined saying he would be moving out. Then the occupant flagged me down to say he would be out but has yet to move.

Important Information

Legal Aid Funding
Legal aid professionals and organizations oftentimes receive government funding for taking on cases with those who cannot afford attorneys. For the most part, funding is limited so legal aid entities can only take on a limited amount of cases. Qualifications are often rigid.
