Hollywood Utility Bucket Truck Accidents

Published on: April 26, 2024 | By Flaxman Law Group

Will You Need At-Home Care or Other Support After a Serious Injury?

Security Deposit Withholding: What You Need to Know as a Colorado Tenant

Published on: April 3, 2024 | By Flaxman Law Group

If you rent your home in Boulder, Colorado Springs, or any community in Colorado, you may have had to pay a security deposit when moving in. Also known as a damage deposit or a pet deposit, this money is meant to protect the landlord against unpaid rent and damage, but if you follow all the rules, you should be getting that money back after you move out.

So what happens if your landlord tries to claim your deposit is “non-refundable” or tries to claw back a large portion? This is not only unfair, but it may be against the law. Worse, it can leave you in a difficult situation if you need the money to pay for necessities after you move. In this situation, you can always call Flaxman Law Group to arrange a consultation with a Colorado landlord-tenant dispute attorney. Let our family-based law team review your situation, answer your questions, and help you find ways to get your deposit back.
