Tenant-rights advice for Álvaro in Bogotá: a short consultation

Looking for housing-law advice in Bogotá D.C.: a withheld security deposit.

My landlord in Bogotá has given me a withheld security deposit. I've read what I can online, but the rules are confusing and different sources contradict each other. I'm hoping that someone with experience in housing or tenant rights in Bogotá D.C. could spare 20-30 minutes to explain the process, the deadlines and the documents I should collect. I have my lease, all communications and photos organized. I'm happy to share them privately. I can't pay for a lawyer, so any guidance on free services in Bogotá D.C. would also be appreciated. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
