harrass me in front of my 10 yr old daughter.(hey you married? etc) There was a shooting in the apartment next door and my daughter was a witness questioned by police. I wrote a letter to inform the management I would be breaking my lease etc and would give a 30 day notice. They refused..so I moved out with NO notice. Now they are charging me 3,520.$. Can they do this? I thought 85% of 1 months rent was the fee.

if you can not afford to pay for a lawyer your only recourse is to go to court and plead your case in front of a judge, the judge may or may not take your side but you will have to go front of the judge
failure to show up in court will mean they win based on default, they will get a judgment for 3520, plus an eviction will be on your credit report

They can if it is within the guidelines of your lease. However, you should notify them that you will not pay pending a civil suit against them for adding in the commission of a crime since they failed to prevent sexual harassment which you experienced despite notifying the management. Further, you are undergoing a inquiry by a lawyer as to an additional civil suit for childhood trauma to your daughter since management failed to act upon the first criminal behavior which allowed for the shooting your daughter witnessed.
Make sure to let them know that your daughter is young and this will be a life long suit for counseling, lack of possible employment, and the developmental damages your daughter has had to endure.
This should make them forget about the little money they are trying to get. Oh, if they should try to go for it make sure that you do contact a attorney and sue them for it.

You signed a hire and are obligated for the completed term of the hire. the only selection they have given you is a sparkling hire on a smaller, extra less expensive unit, so which you're notably plenty out of room to barter. you're certainly caught and characteristic now in basic terms 2 techniques: - locate paintings, and paintings everywhere and pay hire till the hire is up. - do no longer pay the hire & enable them to evict you. It does harm your credit, yet no longer that long. whilst they supply you the three-day Pay or end be conscious, you end, so as that there is not any courtroom order and no public checklist. you will no longer get references for destiny landlords, yet on your case, you're moving out-of-state and back domicile which comprise your mothers and dads. you will lose your protection deposit, yet no longer the rest. be waiting to circulate as quickly as you get the interest.

You will need a lawyer for this. Since, you were under contract and this place will haunt you about it. There are people (the management that runs that place) that just don't give a flying leap whether you were harrased or not...or whether that was a good or bad environment for your child.
Talk to a lawyer and see what they can do for you.

Get a lawyer. It is the landlord's responsibility to provide a secure environment for tenants. They have obviously failed and are trying to use scare tactics. Call your local TV station or newspaper. They will drop it. Good luck and stay safe :)
