Sponsor damaged my apartmentMay 08, 2013

Sponsor renovated his apartment and damaged the bathroom ceiling, the foyer and the bathroom wall of my apartment. He fixed the bathroom ceiling and the foyer and painted it a different color. He did not fix the wall. I send him three e-mails asking to fix the wall, and he is not answering them. I also told the management and the Board. What actions can I take against the sponsor and management ?

Sponsor damage - Steve Rosenstein May 09, 2013

You might try opening a claim with your insurance company. If the sponsor damage was due to negligence (and it sounds like it was), insurance will pay for fixing the damage (less your deductible) and they they will sue the sponsor to recover your deductible.
