Miscellaneous
Basic issues in landlord tenant law – from both the perspective of the landlord and the tenant. We provided information about how to get self-help materials specifically geared to this topic under Connecticut law – for free. We also followed up on a listener email about getting her attorney’s fees paid by the tenant in an eviction proceeding. We introduced a new feature: “Legal Word of the Week.” The goal is to de-mystify legal words listeners may encounter. This week the word was “subrogation.” The time flew by. We took a listener call from a previous caller who wanted everyone to know how his lawsuit against 2 dirtbag real estate agents ended up (he won – got damages, punitive damages, and an award of approx.. $60k in attorney’s fees). He was very proud, and I’m pleased that we were able to encourage him to persist when he called LawTalk last year to seek our thoughts.
