What do I do if my wife and I are separated and her name is still on the lease and it's time to renew?

I live in Florida and my wife and I are separated, and she moved out of the apartment months ago. The lease is about to expire and I would like to renew it. But the people at the leasing office has told me that I can't renew it because my wife's name is still on the lease and they cannot remove her name unless they have a signed letter from her stating to take her name off the lease because she does not reside there anymore. She is vindictive and will not send a letter with this statement. Does anyone know of a way I can get my lease renewed in this situation?

Your now free get another place have fun get drunk bring home women Whats wrong with you, this is a new life a second chance go for it nothing is worth the worry.

DO NOT ADD HER.
You can renew your lease. When re-filling out the papers DON'T submit her as a tenant!
Request new papers.
This is exactly what my daughters EX did to her, but they were still married. He was planning on leaving her, so without her knowing when re-lease time came, she saw her name was not there.
Good for her though, cause the loser broke the lease in less than 2 months - so SHE is not responisble....

Go over the heads of the people in the rental office. They're idiots. If it's a large company, go to the regional office. If it's smaller, go to the building owner. Calmly explain the situation.

If they refuse, just stay and keep paying rent. They'll file an eviction notice. Go to court and explain your situation. It will be costly - for them. So long as you have been paying your rent on time since she left, you should win. And if you hire an attorney to represent you, be sure to ask for those fees from your landlord.

Good luck.

Do not renew the old lease.

Get a new lease in your name.

Why would she want her name on a lease anyway in a place she does not live in anymore? Does she want to pay half your rent?

She'd be stupid not to send the letter, since she'd be liable for the lease otherwise. Can't imagine she wants that.

I don't see why they can't just issue a new lease to just you for the next term.
