Common scenario:
A landlord keeps all or part of a security deposit. They often commit technical violations that not only forfeit the landlord’s right to hold the deposit at all, but entitle the former tenant to three times the amount of the deposit, and legal fees.
If you are having a problem with a Massachusetts landlord, you are welcome to contact us. We have successfully taken on landlords from the biggest in the country to individual owners renting out only one unit.
