Hi all, I know there are many people here being screwed over when subletting flats, but in my case I'm being screwed by the person I subletted my flat to.
She left the flat in a horrendous state. Lots of things broken, the couch ruined, so much so that the broken things surpassed her deposit of 1500 Chf. She refuses to pay for many of the things she broke and ruined and contacted a lawyer.
My question is: how long can I legally keep her deposit until paying it back (or what remains of it)?
Also, I didnt know that deposit had to be paid into a secure account. What problems can I face now legally?
