What is the name of your state? Ca.
We recently moved out of a condo in SoCal. While living in the condo. the owner hired a company to come in an replace the dishwasher, while there the company's man broke the pipe off and flooded the house. The landlord had said it was there fault and that I would not be charged for the damages. Once we moved out it became a different story, she has handed us over to a lawyer and he wrote us today(30 days after we moved out of the condo), saying that damages casued by us are being repaired and that the landlord will send any money that is left from our deposit if there is any left after the damages. She has told us that she is having extensive work done because of the damages we caused, yet therer were renters in it withi n 2 weeks after we moved out. Also what about the horrible mold that had grown in the floor and walls while we lived there, should they not have fixed that first, is there someone whom we can alert, for the safety of those who did move in. She accusing us of pre existing damages, yet did not have me fill out a landlord/tenant move in condition check list, does she have any right to do what she is doing? Is my onlu option Small Claims? Does she have any power with out the signed move in checklist? Is there a 21 day paypack period on my deposit? Can anyone help, please?
