Hypothetical question

Not gonna lie, quick background on my situation in Florida — any input appreciated.

condo association special assessment dispute. I've been dealing with this for about 4 months now and the situation isn't improving.

I have been renting for 5 years. My monthly rent is $987. I have a written lease fwiw.

What are my legal options here? Is it worth pursuing?

Illustrative response

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.

Illustrative response

Unpopular opinion: sometimes it's not worth litigating, even if you're in the right. If the disputed amount is $500 and attorney fees would be $3,000, consider whether the principle is worth the cost. Write-off the loss and learn from it.
