I can help Rhode Island residents with questions about:

  • Tenant/landlord issues
  • Problems with a business

What Types of Concerns Can It Help With?

Tenants/Renters Concerns

Your apartment has rats and you've asked the landlord to hire an exterminator to fix the issue, but he/she has ignored your request.

You moved out of the apartment but your landlord still has not returned your deposit and it's been over a month since you left.

Water is leaking from the ceiling every time it rains and the landlord has refused to fix the problem after being told multiple times.

While you were away, your landlord entered your apartment without permission.

Consumer Complaints

"My bank overcharged me for an overdrawn account but won't refund the fees to me. What can I do?"

"We had our roof replaced this summer and it's leaking. We've contacted the roofer but he isn't returning our calls. What recourse do we have?"
