My apartment hasn't addressed issues I have told them about. We have Roaches/ Water bugs to the point there in our appliances, our shoes and even living in our alarm clocks and refrigerator. This morning I woke up and my fridge was broken, I immediately called maintence and they told me there was nothing they could do just take my food and put it in a cooler with ice until they can find me a fridge the do not know when this will be. Our stove throws blue flames when we try to use it, the ceiling fan in the bedroom is broken. Ive sent a letter to their main manager and recived a letter back stating everything should be fixed within days. This was over a month ago. We broke a [URL="http://www.city-data.com/forum/#"]windowhttp://solidsaving-a.akamaihd.net/it...rrow-10x10.png[/URL] in October, and they added the charge to our rent, which now has us going to court for unpaid rent. We've been trying to figure out what to do the window is now broken again (on its own this time) and they could possible charge us for it. We are trying to move as our lease is up in March, but we cannot get accepted anywhere due to the 488.00$ charge of the window they added to our rent. WE could possibly be evicted because of this charge and every month they add more charges. Please help, im not sure who to contact, we have very little money none for a lawyer but I hate the fact that im sleeping beside an alarm clock filled with bugs. And the 165.00 in our fridge is now gone bad because of the fridge please help me. I live in Richmond, Virginia

Bring them to court! Sadly the laws in this state protect slumlords and your not allowed to hold rent for crap like that. You could also call 12 on your side and plaster them all over TV with the craphole there making you live in. If you can prove all this, call 12. Your landlord will be PAYING YOU to move when it's all over.

Check the Legal Aid site to see if they can help you. VaLegalAid.org - A guide to free and low cost civil legal information and services in Virginia. I don't think they charge.
