1
Tom, we got a letter from our old landlord.
2
The security deposit refund?
3
Let me open it.
4
It's been over three weeks since we moved out.
5
He should have sent the full $2,000 back by now.
6
Tom, he's only refunding $400.
7
$400 out of $2,000?
8
What happened to the rest?
9
He's charging us $1,600 for wall damage and deep cleaning.
10
Wall damage?
11
We didn't damage any walls.
12
Those marks were already there when we moved in.
13
I have photos.
14
You took photos on move-in day?
15
Of course I did.
16
Photos of every room, every wall, every scratch.
17
Smart.
18
So he's lying.
19
And the deep cleaning fee is $300?
20
We cleaned that apartment for two days.
21
This is not okay.
22
What can we do?
23
I read online that there's a legal aid center downtown.
24
Free help for people like us.
25
Let's go this week.
26
Hi there.
27
How can I help you today?
28
Our former landlord kept $1,600 of our $2,000 security deposit.
29
What reasons did he give?
30
Wall damage and deep cleaning.
31
But the wall marks were there before we moved in we moved in.
32
Do you have proof?
33
Yes.
34
I took photos on move-in day and I kept copies of all our text messages with him.
35
Did you fill out a move-in checklist?
36
Yes.
37
It shows the existing damage when we moved in.
38
He signed it too.
39
That's excellent.
40
You have a very strong case.
41
So what do we do?
42
You'll file a claim in small claims court.
43
The form is called SC 100, plaintiff's claim.
44
How much does it cost to file?
45
For a claim of $1,600, the filing fee is $75.
46
Do I need a lawyer?
47
No. In small claims court, you represent yourself.
48
That's the whole point.
49
It's designed to be simple.
50
What about serving the papers?
51
I heard I can't do it myself.
52
That's correct.
53
You cannot serve the papers yourself.
54
You have three options.
55
What are they?
56
First, ask a friend or family member over 18.
57
Second, hire a professional process server, usually about $50.
58
Third, the county sheriff can do it for a small fee.
59
I think we'll use the sheriff's office.
60
Good choice.
61
Make sure the papers are served at least 15 days before your court date.
62
15 days.
63
Got it.
64
Anything else I should prepare?
65
Organize your evidence.
66
Print the photos, bring the signed checklist, bring the text messages.
67
I also recommend writing a demand letter first.
68
Send it by certified mail.
69
Why a demand letter?
70
Because it shows the judge you tried to resolve this before going to court.
71
Judges like that.
72
Okay, let's organize everything.
73
Where are the move-in photos?
74
On my phone.
75
I'll print them at the store tomorrow.
76
And the move-in checklist?
77
Right here.
78
Look, it says, existing scuff marks on living room wall.
79
And he signed it.
80
That's gold.
81
He literally agreed the damage was there before us.
82
And here are our text messages.
83
He wrote, Apartment looks good the day we moved out.
84
Wait, he wrote apartment looks good and then charged us for damage?
85
Exactly!
86
That contradicts his own claim.
87
This guy doesn't have a case.
88
Let's fill out the SC100.
89
I need his full legal name and address for the form.
90
It's on our old lease, David J.
91
Patterson, 415 Oak Blvd.
92
Got it.
93
And we're filing for $1,600 plus filing fees.
94
Good.
95
He won't know what hit him.
96
Now I need to write the demand letter and send it by certified mail.
97
I'll help.
98
Dear Mr. Patterson, we demand the return of our full deposit.
99
Good start.
100
We'll give him 10 days to respond before we file.
101
Hi, I'd like to file a small claims case.
102
Sure.
103
Do you have your SC100 form completed?
104
Yes, here are three copies, like the website said.
105
Let me review them.
106
The plaintiff is Sarah Miller and the defendant is David Patterson?
107
Yes, we're claiming $1,600 for wrongful security deposit deduction.
108
Everything looks good.
109
I'll stamp these now.
110
Your filing fee is $75.
111
Here's my card.
112
Your case number is SC20243847.
113
Write that down.
114
SC20243847.
115
Got it.
116
Your hearing date is March 15th at 9.30 a.m courtroom B.
117
And I need to have the papers served at least 15 days before that?
118
Exactly.
119
And you cannot serve them yourself.
120
Someone else needs to deliver them.
121
I'm going to use the Sheriff's Office.
122
The Sheriff's Office is on the second floor.
123
They charge about $40.
124
I'll go there right now.
125
Thank you so much.
126
After the papers are served,
127
make sure to file the Proof of Service form before your hearing.
128
The proof of service.
129
I'll remember that.
130
How are you feeling?
131
Nervous.
132
My hands are shaking.
133
You've been preparing for weeks.
134
You're ready.
135
What if I forget something?
136
What if the judge doesn't believe me?
137
You have photos, a signed checklist,
138
text messages, and the demand letter.
139
Your evidence is solid.
140
What if he has a lawyer?
141
He can't.
142
No lawyers in small claims court.
143
It's just him and you.
144
Right.
145
Just facts and evidence.
146
Exactly.
147
And And you have all the facts on your side.
148
Okay.
149
Let's go in.
150
I'll be right there with you, in the audience. That helps.
151
A lot.
152
Now deep breath.
153
You've got this.
154
Okay.
155
I'm ready.
156
Good morning.
157
Please place all bags and metal items on the belt.
158
Good morning.
159
Here's my bag.
160
And your phone and keys in the tray, please.
161
Sure.
162
Step through the scanner.
163
Did I set it off?
164
Nope, you're clear.
165
Here are your things.
166
Thank you.
167
Can you tell me where courtroom B is?
168
Second floor, take the elevator on your left, room 206.
169
And do I check in with anyone before the hearing?
170
Yes, the clerk's desk is right outside the courtroom.
171
Give them your case member.
172
SC-2024-3847.
173
You're prepared.
174
Good luck today.
175
Thank you.
176
I appreciate that.
177
Sarah, is that him?
178
Yes, that's Mr. Patterson.
179
He looks nervous.
180
Good.
181
He should be.
182
He doesn't have a folder or anything, just a thin envelope.
183
Really?
184
We have a whole binder of evidence.
185
Exactly.
186
His case is weak.
187
The clerk said they might offer mediation before the hearing.
188
Mediation?
189
What's that?
190
A neutral third person helps us try to reach an agreement.
191
If we agree, we don't need the judge.
192
Would you take a deal?
193
Depends on the deal.
194
I want all $1,600 back, not a penny less.
195
That's my Sarah.
196
Good morning.
197
I'm Michael, your mediator today.
198
Good morning.
199
The goal is to reach a settlement without seeing the judge.
200
I understand.
201
Mrs. Miller, what is your claim?
202
Our landlord kept 1,600 of our deposit.
203
What was his reason?
204
Wall damage and deep cleaning.
205
But the damage was already there.
206
Do you have evidence?
207
Yes.
208
Photos from move-in day with time stamps.
209
May I see them?
210
Here.
211
These show the wall marks on day one.
212
These are very clear.
213
Anything else?
214
A signed move-in checklist.
215
He acknowledged the damage.
216
He signed it himself.
217
Yes, and on move-out day,
218
day he texted apartment looks good he wrote
219
that after you moved out yes then charged us for damage
220
two weeks later i see your evidence is very strong thank
221
you the other party is offering one thousand dollars no i want the full sixteen hundred Are you firm on that?
222
Yes, that's what he took unfairly.
223
Give me a moment to speak with him. Of course.
224
Good news.
225
He's agreed to the full 1600.
226
He agreed?
227
Yes.
228
I'll prepare the settlement agreement now.
229
What happens after we sign?
230
It becomes enforceable by the court.
231
Thank you so much.
232
Well, what happened?
233
We got it!
234
All $1,600.
235
All of it?
236
Every single dollar.
237
He signed the settlement.
238
Sarah, you did it.
239
He didn't even go to the judge.
240
Once he saw my evidence,
241
he gave in during mediation.
242
The photos, the checklist, his own text message saying, looks good.
243
He couldn't argue with his own words.
244
I'm so proud of you.
245
You stood up for yourself. For us.
246
We stood up for us.
247
So when do we get the money?
248
He has 30 days to pay.
249
If he doesn't, we can enforce the judgment.
250
He'll pay.
251
He knows he lost.
252
I hope other renters know about this.
253
You don't have to accept an unfair deposit deduction.
254
Just take photos on move-in day.
255
And keep everything in writing.
256
Pizza's here.
257
Celebration pizza.
258
The best kind of pizza.
259
You know what's crazy?
260
We almost just accepted that $400.
261
I know.
262
I was so frustrated I almost gave up.
263
But you didn't.
264
Because you kept telling me to fight for it.
265
And because you were smart enough to take photos on day one.
266
New rule.
267
Anytime we move into a new place, we photograph everything.
268
Every room, every wall, every scratch.
269
And keep all communications in writing.
270
That text message was the moment he knew he lost.
271
Apartment looks good, his own words.
272
$1,600 plus $75 for filing.
273
We're actually ahead.
274
Wait, did we claim the filing fee too?
275
You did.
276
It was on the SC100.
277
Oh, right.
278
So 1675 total coming back.
279
That's what I call a good day. To justice. To justice.
280
And to always reading the fine print.

Gramática neste vídeo
As estruturas que o falante mais usa, com as palavras exatas do vídeo:
| Estrutura | No vídeo |
|---|---|
| Voz passiva be + particípio passado — o foco está no que acontece, não em quem faz | is called · are served |
| Conselho com “should” should + verbo — dizer o que é uma boa ideia | should have · should prepare · should be |
| Futuro com “will” will + verbo — uma decisão, promessa ou previsão | You'll file · we'll use · I'll print |
| Present continuous am/is/are + -ing — algo que está acontecendo agora ou nestes dias | he's only refunding · He's charging · he's lying |
O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
