Finally
Today was a big day. Since we moved her we have been waiting to get our deposit back from our California landlord. There have been ever so many calls and emails trying to get him to return our deposit, which is rightfully ours because we our awesome renters. A couple of times he even told us he was sending the mail that week but nothing ever came of it. We finally decided to "lawyer up" a bit and my dad (an attorney) helped us write a letter, which we emailed and mailed to him. My dad has some mean lawyer-letter skills. Within an hour of sending the letter, our landlord responded that he had sent the check. We did not get our hopes up yet, but today the check was hand delivered to John's desk at work. Wow, that worked fast. I'm SO thankful to finally have our deposit back and SO thankful to have a supportive attorney-at-law for a dad. Thanks Dad!

I was hoping that by the title of your entry, this would be a baby announcement!!! Mean trick. I am glad you motivated your former landlord. Love those lawyering people sometimes, huh?!?
Nicely done...
How annoying that some people just aren't honest anymore. It's sad that you have to threaten before they'll act. My dad's lawyer skills have come in handy a few times in our family as well. It's unfortunate but nice to have. Yea for money!
You know I looked at your old house. I was disappointed when they didn't rent to me. Now I'm kinda grateful! I have an awesome house for cheap rent. Good job "lawyering up"
