    break commercial lease

    I'm not certain what a "cam fee" is. You signed a lease and, unfortunately, unless your landlord agrees to let you out of this there is no legal way to do this without the risk of a financial penalty. It appears that your landlord is aware of your personal bank account and home information...

    change name on lease

    You can ask your landlord if you can remove your name from this commercial lease but ALL (your husband, the landlord and you) involved must agree to this change. If all agree, get this in writing. If your landlord does not agree to this, you would still be responsible for the rent until the...

    Is this considered criminal child abduction?

    Dad is not on the birth certificate and (I'm assuming) has never had paternity established nor were mom and dad married. Dad doesn't exist in the eyes of the law. Dad needs to get his rear in gear and establish paternity. Gail

    Landlord acting as a storage unit

    You send him written documentation that he has until a certain date (say, two weeks after he receives the letter) to remove the remaining items or it will be assumed he no longer wants them and they will be discarded. Gail

    Landlord dragging feet on essential repairs

    No; you have other options. I've attached some information on steps a tenant can take if repairs are not addressed in a timely manner. If you live in the city of Madison, it seems you have more options than other areas in Wisconsin...

    Landlord dragging feet on essential repairs

    Be careful going for the mold issue. It has been vastly overused by many tenants and, as a result, has lost much of its impact. Remember that there are...literally....thousands of strains of mold and mildew with only a few (the "biggie" is stachybotrys chartarum, or black mold) causing a...

    My story

    Well, I suppose you could quit your job and then you'd have your child with you longer the day you have him. Look; you knew the guy was a slob, never held a job in a decade and half and sold drugs and yet you produced a child with him. Kinda late in the game to start complaining about his...

    Landlord dragging feet on essential repairs

    You could always consider calling your local Code Enforcement. In Wisconsin (as in all states) the landlord is required to provide a living environment that is safe. As the attached reviews, this covers structual defects..lack of cold or hot running water, serious plumbing or electrical...

    30 day notice

    Landlords get upset when good tenants (i.e., those that pay their rent on time and don't destroy the place) tell them they are leaving because there are so many bad applicants out there! Gail

    Vandalism and Security Deposits

    Since the tenant (you) did not cause the damage, you would not be responsible for the cost of replacing this. Gail

    30 day notice

    The purpose of a 30 day notice (either on a month to month lease or in the case of a longer lease that is coming to an end) is for either party (the landlord/the tenant) to notify the other that the current living arrangement will not be renewed. This allows the landlord to begin the...

    Giving up parental rights & Child Support

    Yep. Still, some of the postings were stomach churning. By now, the woman who was trying to find a way to get her husband to be able to terminate parental rights has likely been dumped by said husband who isn't paying child support on THEIR children either. Gail

    My landlord is a highclass slumlord

    How do the actions of a caretaker and one of the other residents taking your plastic glass and food make a landlord a "high class slumlord"? How easily can you be removed from this living situation? Gail

    maintenance entered without permission

    I'm sorry but you do not have the right not to let a landlord or their representative (in this case the maintenance man) enter the rental unit. They most certainly have the right to enter to make repairs. You were aware that your faucet was broken (I'm assuming you reported this to...

    breaking sublease agreement in NC

    While most states require smoke detectors be installed in rental units, please provide information on the North Carolina law that requires that a landlord put insulation under the house. There are steps that a tenant (even someone who is subletting) must take in regarding legally being able...

    HOA Inspections

    California has strict (and complicated!) landlord tenant laws that tend to favor the tenant. There are some very specific guidelines on when a landlord has the "right" to enter a dwelling. These are included in the attached: http://www.kenkoury.com/llord.htm It would appear that a...
