“Michelle” (not her real name) had a problem with her rental home. Michelle was a senior citizen and the home she was renting had serious health and safety issues, but her landlord refused to fix the issues.

When Michelle complained her landlord started harassing and intimidating Michelle. The stress was impacting her health and when her landlord filed a wrongful eviction against Michelle, she reached out to FRLS for help.

A FRLS attorney represented Michelle and the wrongful eviction was dismissed. When the landlord later failed to make the repairs needed FRLS was able to obtain a return of her deposit and Michelle was able to move into safe housing.
