Foreclosure Question — subletter trashed my apartment

I'm dealing with a situation and need some guidance.

subletter trashed my apartment. I've been dealing with this for about 14 months now and the situation isn't improving.

I have been renting for 7 years. My monthly rent is $3,775. We are on a month-to-month now.

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

Attorney here. Here's my take on the legal issues.

The legal framework here involves both federal and state law. At the federal level, the implied warranty of habitability. Your state may provide additional protections.

You should consult with a local attorney who handles these cases. Many offer free initial consultations.

I went through almost the exact same thing.

I ended up hiring an attorney to send the initial letter, which cost about $2-4 but saved me a lot more in the long run.

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've seen this play out several times in my field.

What worked for me was escalating to a supervisor/manager. It took 1-3 months but was worth it.

In my case, it took about 4-8 months to resolve. The key was filing with the appropriate government agency.

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 ended up having everything documented, which cost about $3-6 but saved me a lot more in the long run.

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

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.

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 dealt with this before.

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