Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Oklahoma
Help, I think I've been cheated.
Please I don't know what to do. Me and my girlfriend moved into an apt about 5 months ago. Before we moved in, we were told that there was a low crime rate and that there was a security gate and roaming security guards. The first week that we moved in I was shot at. Since then we have been robbed and my motorcycle was stolen. The apt refused to help in any way. Also we were promised a washer and dryer, later we were informed that it was a 35 dollar charge each month for the unit. I was also told that we could have a sattilite dish, (this was important to me seeing as to the fact that I work for Dish Network.) Yesterday I was told that in order to get a dish we had to pay a 150.00 deposite and purchase renters insurance. At this point I not only want to move out but want to know if there are any laws that may help me in stopping this apt from doing this to anyone else as I know for a fact that I am not the only one they have done this to. Also is there any kind of compinsation I might qualify for to try and pay off the motorcycle that was stolen?
