Property Boundary / Easement — mold in apartment making family sick

I'm in a difficult situation and trying to figure out my next steps.

mold in apartment making family sick. I've been dealing with this for about 6 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

I have been renting for 4 years. My monthly rent is $2,281. I have a written lease.

Has anyone been through something similar? What worked for you?

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

The key question is whether the applicable statute of limitations has run. Depending on your jurisdiction, you typically have your state's security deposit statute years for this type of claim.

The practical consideration here is cost vs. potential recovery. For disputes under $10K, small claims court is often the best route.

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 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.

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

In my case, it took about 3-6 months to resolve. The key was having everything documented.

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.

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