Re: renters rights

Your rights depend upon the wording of

your agreement, the provisions of Florida

Statutes and all the facts and circumstanmces./

I strongly suggest you seek the advice of

counsel. As you do not have enough money

to move, you probably do not have enough

to pay for litigation. However, based on

the information you have provided, you may

find an attorney who will take the case

on a contingency basis.
