(Need Advice) Roommate breaking lease.

Great, then a certified letter is what I’ll do.

I called a few attorneys yesterday and all of them said they would be happy to take my case, but consultation fees are between $100 and $200 for the first hour. I can’t afford to be spending money on lawyers if I don’t need one. So it won’t be necessary to have one?

There’s nothing I can really hold as collateral. He has an old TV, some drawers to his desk, junk like that.
