Recently, we've had several patrons contact us to ask whether they can withhold rent if their landlord hasn't made repairs. To assist in answering this question, we've added an answer to our frequently asked legal questions page.

In addition to addressing this topic, our frequently asked questions page provides answers to many of the other most common legal questions that we receive. While we are unable to provide legal advice or address your specific situation, the information on these pages may help you to answer your own question. Examples of other questions related to landlord/tenant law include:

• Can I have my landlord use my security deposit for last month's rent?
• I signed a lease but haven't moved in yet. Don't I have 3 days to cancel the lease?
• My landlord gave me an eviction notice. What happens next? What are my rights?

If you find that your question is not addressed on our frequently asked legal questions page, please don't hesitate to Ask a Librarian for assistance!
