Good news. MY new Legal Aid attorney called today. She is GREAT! So nice and understanding. She said legally my landlord didnt notify me correctly to move out by May 1. It takes 2 forms. He only sent a certifed letter. Also she said he cant charge me for unresonable items when move out. I had said with them this is a concern. I said I knew for a fact they did this too a little old lady who was ill when she moved out charging her for carpet cleaning which my attorney said is not allowed as it would be beyond normal and resonable. Yippee. She also said it HAS to be done in 30 days in that the land lord has to mnake a full accounting of any deductions and mail me the deposit. I said my last landlord took 3 months and took my whole deposite and charged me more causing me to take several months to pay of pluss interest cause I had to do over time.

It is nice to get someone who is this savy and knowlegeable on you side at a time like this. Of course now I have 2. Her and my daughter. I cant imagine doing this without them. The attorny gave me some possible resources to help with my deposite too. The Salvation Army is one and a place called Helping Hands and local churches. This sure is a good time to know anyone who is good at resources.
