Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Rhode Island
My Daughter signed a lease for a apartment with another person. The other person after living in the apt for a month got up and moved to California leaving my daughter stuck. The company she rents from is apparently not willing to help her and my daughter just can pay the rent

Very unfortunate - I'm sorry your daughter finds herself in this predicament. Step #1 is to review the Lease your daughter signed. I would be happy to review it and discuss some of her options with her by telephone at her convenience, spending up to an hour or so at no charge or obligation - it's the kind of nice thing lawyers in general, and LawyersCollaborative in particular, often do to help good people who find themselves in bad situations.
