Landlords illegally subleased to me

Heather Buscemi
Posted

So my brother in law offered me a place to stay as long as I found a roommate to cover the rent with. I did. It was my daughter, fiance and myself, as well as my roommate and her 2 teenagers. We paid rent on time every month. First 2 months cash but they would never bring us a receipt so August 2019 we paid off a card, which they did take the funds. The "lease" they gave us was for December 2019. Today on August 29, 2019 we were evicted by the company who actually owned the house. We got a 24 hour notice, as we did each month. They told us not to worry about it. I took the last bit of money and got a weekly. Is there anything I can do about my brother in law taking our rent and not paying the actually company as well as illegally subleasing and refusing to pay back a deposit?
