    Landlord wants late fees.

    I'm going to call him and tell him to send me more information on this. I want to see his books. Can a landlord take money out of the deposit, then demand that the deposit is brought back to the original amount?

    Landlord wants late fees.

    What is the name of your state? CA I think I'm pretty much screwed here, but I'll ask anyway. I've been in my apartment for about 2 1/2 years. I have been late on the rent at times, but not in the past 6 months. There were months where I knew I was going to be late, so I called and told...

    What is the name of your state? CA I've been working as a sports photographer for four years. I work with a guy that shoots youth sports, team photos, indiviaul photos, and action photos.

    Changing XBOX logo on top of XBOX!

    I'm not sure what the exact law is, but I do know that somebody is already doing it. Probably not where you are, so you probably don't have to worry about the competition. I saw it on MTV awhile back. A guy tricked out an XBOX, and charged like $300 for it. I don't see what XBOX could do...

    Looking for a doctor

    What is the name of your state? Ca A lady sued me for $5000 over an accident that my truck was involved in. I wasn't the driver, and the driver wasn't covered by my insurance. Everything about her case seems like one big lie. She's claiming over $3500 in medical bills. She was seen by a...

    Info on corporations

    What is the name of your state? CA I don't know a whole lot about corporations, so I have a few questions. I'm want to purchase houses in poor conditions, fix them up and re-sell them. One problem is that my credit isn't too good. I've been hearing about corporations, and wanted to know if...

    Writing a contract

    What is the name of your state? CA I lost both the trial and appeal. I owe the lady $5000. I told the judge all I could pay was $100 a month, because I'm a full time student. He accepted it. The problem I'm having is that this is on my credit, and I want it off. I went to the lady that I...

    A big mess with Landlord

    One thing I've learned, even if you think you have a strong claim, get a lawyer. They are able to argue your case much better than you can. They can see find things that you probably haven't. I had what seemed to be a slam dunk case in small claims court, but I couldn't convince the judge. I...

    eviction

    I'm not worried about it being on her record for getting another apartment. I just bought us a town house, that is in my name, so at the moment it isn't a problem. Does this eviction go on her credit report? That's where it may hurt us. We plan to by some fixer-uppers in the near future, and...

    Late Fees

    It's month to month. 10% is in the "Standar month to month rental agreement". This agreement says the minimum temamcy is 18 months. I've been there a few years. I'm assuming this agreement would still be in affect. Or was the landlord supposed to write up a new one after 18 months? The...
