Success story

How this plays out in real life

      Missing Deposit Secured

      After move out, the renter never got the deposit. Only a few hundred dollars, no attorneys would call her back. Then she found our services and just paid for what she needed until it resolved. Without services, she would have lost hundreds (plus even more when the landlord claimed she caused damages).

      • Security Deposit Bundle got the renter off to a solid start, hopeful it would be enough by itself to resolve the issue.
      • Negotiation Coaching guided the renter when the landlord not only refused to return the deposit, but claimed damages that meant she still owed.
      • Mediation brought them together to settle everything once and for all with a binding agreement.
