Foreclosure Question — subletter trashed my apartment

Has anyone dealt with something like this? I'm not sure what my options are.

subletter trashed my apartment. I've been dealing with this for about 15 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

I have been renting for 7 years. My monthly rent is $1,076. I have a written lease.

What are the risks if I pursue this? What's the likely timeline?

I've handled similar cases. Here's my take on the legal issues.

The legal framework here involves both federal and state law. At the federal level, state landlord-tenant code. Your state may provide additional protections.

I'd recommend documenting everything in writing from this point forward. Keep copies of all communications.

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.

The biggest mistake people make in this situation is filing with the appropriate government agency. I'd recommend gathering evidence first instead.

Been there. Here's what I learned.

The biggest mistake people make in this situation is escalating to a supervisor/manager. I'd recommend following the formal complaint procedure instead.

I went through almost the exact same thing.

What worked for me was having everything documented. It took 3-6 months but was worth it.

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.
