QUESTIONS

  • My apartment is being infested with cockroaches due to my filthy neighbors. I have talked with the leasing office multiple times over the occasion and their have not addressed with with the neighbors. The only solution they have offered is the tiny cockroach tabs to put in cabinets. I have not had food or trash in my apartment for over two months because of not being able to live there with the cockroaches. Is there a way to break my lease because the landlord has not provided a "safe and habitual environment?"
  • tenants lease is up at the end of them month and just now tells me he is moving out only gave two week notice is that ok? can I keep part of security deposit for cleaning
  • I just signed another year lease. My company is moving the office to another state, so I'm losing my job. I was told I could get out of my lease.

  • My husband and I have been married for 9 months and I am 7 months pregnant. My husband has a daughter from a previous relationship. His parents (my in-laws) have stated they plan to file for grandparents rights. I know they have no rights over our son since we are married, however will they lump both kids together or not since they have two different mothers? They will try for time for our son, I already know that. I guess my concern is will they get any time with him?
  • The flushing mechanism inside the toilet tank has broken. Flushing the toilet is only possible by reaching into the tank and pulling the chain. Is it the lanlords responsibility to fix it?

  • A professional evaluated the reason why only 1/2 my rented apt works correctly. The fuse box is dangerously wired. Now after 11 months, due to the apt may catch on FIRE at any given moment I'm forced to move-out. Do I have any compensation rights?
