My landlord in Yonkers 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 New York 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 New York would also be appreciated.
Glad we found this place.

I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of Yonkers.
