- Q. Generally when do changes in Florida Statute 723 take effect?
- A: Generally, new statutes take affect July 1st of each year unless there is a special session. Generally, new statutes are not retroactive to apply to existing contracts unless they state they are passed as a matter of public policy. There are exceptions to that rule but that is a very complex answer and goes beyond the general question and answer format of this forum.
- Q. Right of way utility company has built a 40 ft antenna 0n my property just next to my fence there is a drainage easement
- A: There's no way of telling in this online forum. If it's designated as a drainage and utility easement. A real estate lawyer would need to review your survey, the community plat and search for any easement documents. Generally, whenever an owner puts anything in an easement, the entity benefitting the easement has the right to remove it but not the duty to replace it.
- Q. I need a bankruptcy paralegal to assist me with my form, how can I find one in Orlando, Fl in Orange County?
- A: Paralegals can only provide forms and cannot give legal advice. The bankruptcy courts have pro bono (free) clinics. Make an appointment with the clinic at the Middle District of Florida courthouse in downtown Orlando.
