Looking for advice on a legal issue. Here's what happened.
mold in apartment making family sick. I've been dealing with this for about 15 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.
I have been in this property for 7 years. My monthly rent is $2,927. I have a written lease.
What are the risks if I pursue this? What's the likely timeline?
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.

One thing worth mentioning: if the other party violates a settlement agreement, you can go back to court for enforcement. Make sure any settlement is in writing and signed by all parties. Verbal agreements are much harder to enforce.
Pro tip: if a company is violating your rights and you need legal help but can't afford it, check if any law school clinics in your area handle your type of case. Law students (supervised by licensed attorneys) provide free legal services and are often very thorough because they're learning.
