Dear Larry: Just wanted to say thanks. Your website/book helped us win in court. I spent several hours preparing our binder and felt very organized going into court. Looking around we saw everyone else come in with loose papers just like you had said. We felt very prepared, but unfortunately the judge hardly looked at our binder. He just looked at what the landlord lacked as proof and awarded us judgement. Although the binder wasn't the deciding factor, it sure did help us have the confidence to stand up to our landlord in court.
Sincerely, Tonia Baily

Larry helped me get my deposit back from my slumlord. I highly recommend his presentation folder and expertize. I would not have received a dime without his help! Heather Hoffman Kimel

3. Learn your state’s landlord tenant law

Don’t expect to win unless you learn the law. Read the actual law that pertains to you in the state you live, as well as the interpretation of the law, which can often be found on various Web sites when you do your Google search. Not only is this a good civics lesson for you, but you need to be able to explain to a judge (in small claims court), or to your attorney (in superior court), how your landlord violated your rights as a tenant. Not all attorneys are well versed in landlord tenant law. If you educate yourself first, then you can be sure that the attorney will be educated, too. Also, study how I displayed the landlord tenant law in our presentation folder (see Part III). It’ll probably give you a lot of ideas that you can use in your case.
