2375 Questions Answered
Q. How can I address a neighbor's noise and gazebo drainage issues legally in NYC?
A: Call 311 and report a noise complaint. NYC has noise ordinances.
Q. How can I assert my rights to a deceased parent's estate without a will?
A: Krim is right as far as he went. When you say "acknowledgment of paternity" what do you mean? There is a Family Court document called that, and that would be critical. Merely claiming it in correspondence is not enough. You would need DNA proof. Should you be challenged, this is a long and expensive process, and whether it is worth doing depends on the size of the estate. However, if you do not file, you get zero, so you should file.
Q. What type of lawyer for estate dispute in NY?
A: Any estate specialist. You need to bring a petition to compel payment of a claim assuming you made your claim properly.
