Do you know any government agencies that can help people discriminated and evicted to their apartment?

I have a cousin doesnt speak very well english, he is living in two bedroom apartment. Because of the high rent, he share it with her another cousin with family. But the apartment office find out that there is unauthorized occupants. So they sent notice to get them out. His cousin has a little kids. So they ask the apt. to add their names in the contract but they refuse it and afterward they filed for eviction. Is that right?

Go to a HOUSING lawyer in your area, I believe a apartment complex has written leases with the occupants names on it.. I think you should have had their names added before they showed up, or when you got the apartment....There may be a clause in the contract stating visitors OK for 2-3 day's only....Only you & or roomate can reside there....Depend's on your state law's on this subject.......Good Luck & God Bless.....If they are un-authorized & the contract was SIGNED by you, I think everyone has to move...........It is not RIGHT, but it is the LAW....2 bedroom for at least 4 people? you said kids & not kid...(not boyfriend & girlfriend or husband & wife) to many people for 2 bedroom.

But I can tell you, it's based on the number of bedrooms, as far as how many people can stay there.

Depeneding on the state you are from what they are doing is completely legal. They do not have to add any persons on to the lease that were not living there when it was signed. Also most states have a maximum occupancy per apartment and they may have too many people living there. Being a leasing manager even if they are being discriminated against the complex is still legally in the right and your cousin is in the wrong. sorry and i hope everything works out.

welcome to USA,here the law is the law,respect the rules and you no have problems, find another place and never take free services, we are welcome here to work.

So, your cousin rented a place saying it was only himself, then he proceeds to move in more people. He gets caught and now he wants to scream discrimination?

Good Lord.

Why is that everyone who breaks the rules or the laws thinks they are above them?

Maybe your cousin should be a responsible adult, admit to failing to follow the rules and suffer the consequences?
