I live in Pennsylvania and my landlord recently sent me a bill in the mail for maintenance. I called the office and they sent a handy man over to fix a broken shelf. When I talked to them on the phone I said "it might of had to much wait on it". The handyman comes over fixes the shelf and I also have a toilet seat that is loose that I show him and he goes to the store and gets a new one and installs it.(The previous toilet seat was probably 10 years old) About a week later I get a bill in the mail for $78.00($56.00 of it which is labor) They never mentioned anything about me having to pay for anything and if I knew they would I would of done it myself. I went today to talk to the manager to try to resolve it and he said since I have a bad attitude I have to pay it. I want to take them to civil court. And I want your opinion and if I have a chance of winning? Also how much should I sue for? Are there anything else money wise I can tact on to the claim. There are lots of other problems with the apartment and the rent here is already too expensive for the area. I feel like there a greedy company that always wants more money. Also should they not have to tell me in advance if they are going to charge me for maintenance? Many thanks
