Quick background on my situation — any input appreciated.
eviction notice for no reason. I've been dealing with this for about 6 months now and the situation isn't improving.
I have been in this property for 1 years. My monthly rent is $1,036. I have a written lease.
Do I have a strong case? What should my next steps be?
I went through almost the exact same thing.
I ended up filing with the appropriate government agency, which cost about $4-8 but saved me a lot more in the long run.
Just want to point out — the statute of limitations might be a factor here. In some states it's as short as 1-2 years. Don't sit on this too long.
I've handled similar cases. Here's my take on the legal issues.
Based on what you've described, you likely have a viable claim under state landlord-tenant code. The standard is whether a reasonable person would find the conduct in violation of notice requirements.
You should consult with a local attorney who handles these cases. Many offer free initial consultations.
Been there. Here's what I learned.
The biggest mistake people make in this situation is having everything documented. I'd recommend keeping a detailed timeline instead.
This happened to me too. Have you tried filing a complaint with the relevant agency? In my case they investigated and it got resolved without needing a lawyer.
I went through almost the exact same thing.
In my case, it took about 1-3 months to resolve. The key was escalating to a supervisor/manager.

I work in this industry and unfortunately this is very common. The good news is that when people actually push back with legal representation, companies usually settle.
I had a similar issue and ended up consulting with an attorney. It was worth the $200-300 for the initial consultation just to understand my rights.
Following this thread — I'm in a very similar situation. Would love to hear how it turns out.

NAL, but from what I've read, you should file a complaint. That said, definitely get a lawyer to look at the specifics.

Not a lawyer, but I have direct experience with this.

Have you tried reaching out to your state's legal aid society? They sometimes have free resources or mediation services.
