Q: wrongful eviction with a plan that involves roomate and neihbors
my landlord evicted myself and my boyfriend said he had no choice. the neighbor tried to get us to swap her daughter apartments but we said no, my boyfriends roomate made the choice to talk to the neighbors and the landlord and they all agreed that me and my boyfriend should be evicted, and then the neighbors daughter could switch from her apartment to the one we were in and the roommate can take her old apartment. the landlord attempted to hide the agreement between the other parties and attempt to make us believe the roomate was evicted as well. the landlord gave us a fake eviction under the prior tenants name, i responded but nothing after that untill the 16th of dec. the roomate tried to attack me physically punching walls calling me bad names and threatening me. and on th 18th of december the landlord broke into the apartment while i was sleep came through the window of my room and went to change the locks on the front door i called the cops and they told him he couldnt do that.
A:
If your eviction is still pending, a landlord-tenant attorney could advise in the best manner - or given the difficult situation, you may have already decided to start looking into other places at this point. Good luck
