Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in New York

getting my apartment rent security deposit back...

My apt. lease ended in Jan '07. The landlord has my security deposit worth approx. $2000 and has not answered my 3 written requests to have same returned to me. Do I need to go to court because I now live 1000 miles away.

Re: getting my apartment rent security deposit back...

You might, perhaps a lawyer's letter threatening legal action might get him to move. Has he given any indication as to why he is holding the deposit?

Should you like to discuss this or any other legal matter, you can e-mail me for more information about low cost face-to-face, on-line, or a telephone consultation with a lawyer in our office.
