I will draft an attorney security deposit demand letter
Licensed US Attorney Powerful Persuasive Legal Demand Letters
About this Gig
Has your landlord wrongfully kept your security deposit? In many states, landlords are strictly penalized for failing to return deposits within a specific timeframe (often 14 to 30 days).
I am Jeffrey Roy Siegel, a licensed US Attorney (Bar #112061), and I will draft a highly persuasive security deposit demand letter to your former landlord or property management company.
This letter will:
- Clearly state your move-out date and forwarding address.
- Dispute any bogus charges or "wear and tear" deductions.
- Cite your specific state laws regarding security deposits.
- Demand immediate payment under threat of small claims court and statutory penalties (such as double or triple damages, where applicable).
Landlords often ignore tenants, but they rarely ignore a formal letter drafted by a licensed attorney. Secure your hard-earned money today. Order now.

FAQ
Can I ask for more than my original deposit?
In some states, if the landlord misses the deadline, you can demand double or triple the amount. I will draft accordingly.
Do I need a copy of my lease?
A brief summary of your lease terms regarding the deposit is usually sufficient for me to draft the letter.
What if my landlord claims the apartment was damaged?
The letter will formally dispute their claims, arguing normal wear and tear or lack of proof.
Who sends the letter?
I provide you with the finalized PDF. You must print, sign, and mail it via certified mail.
Are you my lawyer if I order this?
This gig is for drafting services only and does not constitute a formal, ongoing attorney-client relationship.
