My friend was arrested and is in jail waiting for hearing. she had another “friend” helping her by paying rent, etc. Now the girl is gone and my friend asked me to step in and find out what needs to be done to keep her stuff and her apartment. When I went to the apartment, there was a letter from the landlord via an attorney. The letter states that “only the lessee may pay the rent”, there is a late fee due from the last month, there is a utility bill and the “friend” changed the locks and now the landlord wants a copy of the keys. I don’t know what to do. I want to help my friend but my name is not on the lease and I do not have the new keys. Anyone have any advice on how to go about figuring this out and saving her place? I have limited funds so an attorney is my last resort. Is there anything I can do?
