Tenant-rights advice for Rebecca in Los Angeles: a short consultation
Looking for housing-law advice in California: a withheld security deposit.
Anywhere in the world1,108 views
My landlord in Los Angeles 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 California 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 California would also be appreciated.

reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Los Angeles
