What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
WA state
We had mentioned to our landlord our stove was faulty one of the burners would occasionally shoot flames.. never had it on paper. Never got a new stove.
my boyfriend started some boiling water stepped away and a moment later he noticed smoke. The whole area above the stove was on fire! It was fairly severe, destroying the microwave above and one cupboard.And severe soot damage thruout. Land lord checked the stove said it was faulty but it probably didnt cause the fire?!?!? Everything needed to be cleaned, sanded, painted. Our landlord told us if we did what work we could do it would be even. He wanted to do the paint because it was oil base, so they sanded and painted. We just got a letter now a month later from our landlord saying he wants $1000!! What should I do? Our whole time here as not been up to legal standards anyway! Indoors wasnt all painted for move in. House was dirty! Bath tub. edges of all surfaces thru out house.Heat can be shut off by the downstairs neighbor! In which our landlord said to turn the oven on to heat the house!! I could go on But really need any advice on what to do! Thanks so muchWhat is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
