My 88 year old mother inlaw put a $1,000 deposit on a mobile home which was supposed to be ready to move into on Sept. 5th, however when she had her stuff moved to the location (she had to be out of her house on that date) the place was not ready and not fit to move into. The owner did not keep his promise to fix things up to her approval, also there was no electric service and other things wrong as well, which would put her in danger. The owner will not give her the deposit back. What can be done to retrive her $1,000. She was given a paper stating that deposits are non refundable, however she did not sign it.

Bankruptsy for someone not able to work
My father-in-law recently had major heart surgery, and due to his health cannot work. He has many bills that he cannot pay back in a reasonable amount of time, and is considering bankruptsy. He has nowhere to live, but has the opportunity to purchase a cheap mobile home. Should he make the purchase, then file for bankruptsy, or file for bankruptsy then make the purchase? Or is bankruptsy not advisable? Thank you for your help.

My mom filed bankruptcy. It went through. She was allowed to stay in the house until further low income housing was avialable.She has now passed away with no will and no power of attorney to any of her 3 children. She also had a car that was paid for. Does the contents of the house have to go through probate? If it does not what is the legal way of distrabution of the personal propery and do we have to have it appraised for value for probate.Will the car be included?
The funeral is paid for and she has a few grand in her account.
