Hello,

I got a letter from my apartment regarding unlawful detainer.

The apartment refused to take our rent for almost 4 months because it was paid in a personal check and not cashier’s check.

I have 5 days to respond, what should I do please?

Also, please reach out to local counsel in your jurisdiction. Additionally, there are resources at pro Bono clinics that can help with this in most cities.

If it was stipulated in the contract, maybe try talking to the landlord and paying them in a cashier's check. It is always better to speak to them in a friendly manner.

Yes I did

I would try to get them that money in a cashier's check as soon as possible. It seems that they're standing on there rules.

So I guess what is the issue then. I am so confused.

What does it say in the leasing contract? You need to make sure to read the lease. Could you just pay them in a cashier's check?

I paid in cashier’s check what was owed. They didn’t accept it and still took us to eviction

Do you still have a copy of your contract? If yes, keep it and show it to your lawyer if you already have one.

Check the lease agreement. There should be a solution there. If not, go and check with a lawyer. good luck!

So have you just not been paying your rent? I am so confused.

Is it ok to send you a private message?

I am an associate at an AM200 firm and was (IMO) very clear prior to accepting this role that I value work-life balance and wanted to try to keep work at night on the weekends to a minimal, but since February, it seems like it’s always something that requires my time as needed disregarding “business hours” or my personal schedule. Thoughts on whether to bring this up or continue to be a team player until I burn out and pay off my student loans?

Do you ever feel like there are rooms you’re locked out of? I’m a black woman, i lateraled to my group a few months ago with minimal onboarding and welcome. A white woman joined recently and everyone has bent over backwards to make her feel welcome and get her integrated into the group. People have invested less in me and it’s going to show in a few years when she’s up for partner and I’m still catching up.
