We receive on average 5-8 calls a day from residential tenants who have issues with their landlords. These issues range from simple disagreements over late fees, poor maintenance, and sometimes outright deplorable conditions. While we typically will do not handle these type of cases, (we don handle commerical landlord/tenant disputes) if you find yourself needing to know your rights as a tenant, you can find about everything you need to know written in the Oklahoma Residential Landlord and Tenant Act. It is available for free here: https://www.oscn.net/applications/oscn/Index.asp?ftdb=STOKST41&level=1

The residential statutes begin at Section 101.

§ 52. When Tenant Abandons, Surrenders Possession of, or is Evicted from Nonresidential Rental Property - Disposition of Personal Property of Tenant - Notice - Costs of Storage - Landlord Liability - Proceeds of Sale

Convenience may come with a price.

"An audacious abuse of power," is how one lawyer describes DoJ's bid to enter premises and force anyone believed to own a fingerprint-enabled device to open it.

The judge said using the tracking device constituted an unreasonable search.

With the housing market suffering and people struggling to pay their mortgages, there are a lot of people who have downsized their home and some who have even moved into apartments to try and reduce their cost of living. Many of these people have opted to retain their old home, with the mortgage in place, and then rent, or try to sell the home, on a Contract For Deed basis. [ 287 more words. ]

You have your divorce decree in hand and you are finally free; you never have to deal with your ex again. Or so you thought. If you and your spouse have children together you will not be truly ‘free’ of your ex just because you are divorced. Depressing, right? Well, life after divorce doesn’t have to be. In fact, ex-spouses who work with each other and not against each other will be happier in the long run. [ 242 more words. ]

We join with all other Oklahomans in saying our hearts go out to the many individuals in Oklahoma who have recently been displaced by the large and damaging tornadoes early in the season. Various weather anomalies are not the only things that are brought about by the beginning of spring. [ 343 more words. ]

I recently read an article that stated that by simply convincing someone to add them as a connection, or a friend, on a social networking site that a potential hacker, who knows nothing else about the person, could successfully steal a person’s identity approximately 15% of the time. How could this be? Because you disclose to those contacts all sorts of personal information: marital status, maiden name, birth date, where you live, where you grew up, who your relatives are, where you work .

Unfortunately, there are a lot of attorneys who will convince clients that they need to spend money creating a living trust, to avoid the expense of Probate, simply because it means money for the attorney. Even worse, few attorneys know how to properly structure and fund a Trust. So not only do people end up with something they do not need, they end up with something that isn’t worth the paper it is written on. [ 109 more words. ]

Every week I meet with someone who has been the victim of home repair fraud. Unfortunately, there is rarely a real remedy available when this happens because those committing the acts know how to skirt the criminal laws and rarely have any assets to recover. If there is one bit of practical advice that can actually protect you, it is this: make sure that if you are hiring someone to do repairs on your home, that they are BONDED. [ 170 more words. ]

While nobody likes to think about the possibility of death, the fact is, it is inevitable. The only question is . . . ”when”, and for the majority of us, that is an uncertainty. Accordingly, waiting until you are “ready” is not advisable when it comes to Estate Planning. One of the simplest and most cost effective ways to ensure that your loved ones are subjected to as little hassle and frustration as possible, while also trying to deal with the grief of losing a loved one, is preparing a Last Will and Testament.
