Uninhabitable Living Conditions

If you are a tenant who wants out of a lease because of uninhabitable living conditions, our firm can help you. Living conditions that may be grounds for breach of contract include:

• Building code violations
• No hot water
• Improper heating
• Mold
• Unsafe conditions

Your landlord is required to maintain the premises in a condition fit for human habitation.

Attorney Brian A. Schuk represents clients in agricultural, trade and consumer protection cases (ATCP). In these cases, we help tenants recover monetary loss because of zoning code and housing code violations. If you overpaid, spent money on repairs or were forced to spend time in a hotel, you may be eligible for compensation.

If you are a tenant who has vacated your rental property and have not received your security deposit back, or received it back more than 21 days after surrendering the premises, contact this office immediately, as you may be entitled to a doubled security deposit return.
