Renters have abismal rights when it comes to property disputes. As a class, renters are more likely to be living paycheck to paycheck, they are less likely to be connected to government or local community, and are dependent on their current landlord/credit agencies to secure shelter in the future. If you are paycheck to paycheck, a lawyer is a crazy expense at the outset. If suing your landlord means that you are out of a home… and their mention to the credit bureau or landlord friends kills your next lease. Then you probably aren’t going to be able to stay around long enough for the court case to play out.
