From getting drug dealers out of the building to handling asbestos, getting a landlord to make repairs, and putting a roommate situation on a solid legal foundation, EVERY TENANT'S LEGAL GUIDE is an essential reference which should be part of any general public lending library collection. Tenant's do have rights!!!! August 28, 2005 10 out of 10 found this review helpful Until you read this book, you will be taken advantage of from landlords who know you haven't read the book. I have rented for years and thought if I am a good tenant and pay my rent everything will be wonderful...UNTIL that day!!! By reading this book, I learned there were many times as a renter my rights were violated. I am an excellent tenant with more knowledge. By knowing my rights I have been able to keep situations from getting to the UGLY stage between the tenant and landlord. Great info - easy browsing December 1, 2001 14 out of 19 found this review helpful Very informative book. Easy to browse Table of Contents and find what you're looking for. Goes along with "Renter's Rights: The Basics"
