You co-signed, which means you are liable for the rent if she failed to pay. She should be responsible for it. However, you co-signed, so you are just as responsible.

Now, you will have to sue her or add her to this matter. Don't let this matter proceed to default.

You should seek the assistance of an attorney in your area to assist you with this matter.

Good luck,

Tracy
