  Looking for tenants rights attorney recommendations Senior citizen is looking for a tenants rights attorney. Assaulted inside building property just outside apartment front door.

Need help getting medical attention and billing apartment complex for medical expenses and attorney to possibly look at property management's lack of proper management procedures led to this incident and other issues.

  Try legal aid first and see if they might be able to refer you to someone. They do an Ask-A-Lawyer thing once a week for landlord tenant stuff, this weeks is already booked up but you can book for next week or whenever its next open. https://www.lacsn.org/

  Stacey M. asked:

  I need some assistance. The owner of our rental property has accepted an offer on this hiuse and they want to move in the end of January. Our lease is not up until mid july. Does anyone know of someone such as a lawyer or some kind of assistance so we can make sure we get ALL our deposits back etc. Before we move out. The realtor sounds to me like she is trying to scare us to move out asap. Thank you.

  Lisa H. asked:

  I have scheduled a seminar for people whose kids have special needs to discuss trusts and the ins and outs of them. An expert will present, then take questions. Tuesday, Sept. 16 from 6:30-8 pm in Summerlin at my office (classroom holds about 40 people comfortably). The lawyer is already scheduled, but I am still looking for someone to talk about the ABLE Act. Anyone a) want to go and b) have a contact to speak about the legislation?

  

  Kathryn W. replied:

  Both NV Senators Heller and Reid are cosponsors of the ABLE act. Someone from their office might come to speak. I know before I talked with Dina Titus (several years ago)and Shelley Berkley in Sept. last year about their support. Another option might be the Legal Aid Center of Southern Nevada (LACSN) 702.386.1070 or People First of Nevada - Santa Perez is the local contact, preferably through email. I will check with Nevada PEP to see if anyone is up on the subject. I'm also wondering if any of the support groups for individuals with autism and their families are pursuing the ABLE act. Would you be willing to opening the meeting up to families affected by autism as well Lisa Peterson Holmquist? At the very least we should be able to get information from the National Down Syndrome Society (NDSS) - behind the act from the beginning.
