Hey Guys,

I live in CT.
I have a question and need your help with it. For four months I have been battling the management company for our building to fix the issue (crack in the outside wall that lets small amounts of water into my apartment) and always hear some different excuses. I would like to take them to court and interested if if it worth to hire a lawyer at this point. I am never late with my monthly dues so there is no issues with payments. Where should I go first? Can I go to small claims court (it is a company I am going against not person)? Can I hire a lawyer and then fight for all damages (physical, legal, moral)? I think I have a case here because the management company is responsible for the exterior of the building and I pay my dues in time.
Please advice. If you had some experience fighting management companies please share it as well.

I don't think going to small claims court or hiring an attorney is going to make them fix a crack in the wall. You should contact the nice folks down at the Building Department and speak to them about this. I'm sure that they'll dream up some sort of violation to get the owners to fix the crack considering it's compromising the interior with water intrusion.

What are your physical damages anyway - just curious?
