Legal Question in Real Estate Law in New Jersey
Is it legal for mom keep my birth certificate and my SSC from me after I turn 18 if I ask her for it ?
1 Answer from Attorneys
You may request a copy of your birth certificate from the state where you were born. The department is often called "Vital Records".
If you know your Social Security Number, you may request a new card from the Social Security Administration.
It probably is legal, she may have a good reason for it.
THIS RESPONSE IS NOT LEGAL ADVICE, SINCE I DO NOT HAVE ALL OF THE INFORMATION THAT WOULD BE REQUIRED, AND I DO NOT HAVE A REPRESENTATION AGREEMENT WITH YOU.
* If the answers to your question confirm that you have a valid issue or worthwhile claim, your next step should almost always be to establish a dialog with a lawyer who can provide specific advice to you. Contact a lawyer in your county or township.
* Another reason for contacting a lawyer is that it is often impossible to give a good answer in the Internet Q&A format without having more information. The unique circumstances of your situation and things that you may not have thought to mention in your question may completely change the answer. If you want to be sure that you have a complete answer to your question and an understanding of what that answer means, establish a connection with a lawyer who practices in the area of your concern.
