How Do I Recover My Monies From This Tenant by QuinModah(f): 1:05am On Mar 06, 2021
Please, HELP

Tenant A

He left with a balance of 50k with the control box of the pre-pair meter and imagine he (lawyer) went to collect the key of the apartment from the tenant and his telling me it's a bad debt, I should leave him for God. He doesn't even know where he relocated to, I was even the one that went to meet some of the boys in the area and bought few drinks for then and they told me where he relocated too

Tenant B
Had 6 months left on his tenancy agreement we took him to court, the court ruled in our favor for the tenant to pay 245k, he packed out without paying a DIME. Prior to this time, he (lawyer) assured me that the tenant will pay, saying that if doesn't pay the tenant property will be used to offset the debt owed.

In summary, =N=295,000 gone to bad debt.

Tenant C
has been owing since last year and I have a lawyer handling my property cry

Tenant D
Finally, I decided going forward due diligence MUST be carried out, he didn't do as instructed with Tenant D, he didn't visit his former house or his current office.

My mom is currently ill and I need money cry

Please, how do I handle it his type of lawyer ?

Yes, I am shopping already but most of them I have seen have not handled any real life issues, they are just quoting what they learnt in law school. As regards, Military I have them but none will go with me for such they all saying with the new military men at the helm of affairs, things are changing as regards army conduct with civil matters.

I have been patient with Tenants C. Yes I agree things are rough out there but is that an excuse not to make any payment. I knew when he bought a generator of 180k, celebrated his birthday and did naming ceremony. I didn't disturb him. So, are you saying I haven't been patient for over a year?

Look. for a good lawyer and let him write a strongly worded letter to them, giving them ultimatums to settle the debts or face legal actions.
Trust me something will come out, even of it is to reach an agreement that they'll pay in installments.

Is it the Tenant B that has gone with the =N=245? or
Tenant A that's has gone with 50k? Writing a strong worded letter in my opinion may not do much

I am suspecting that because he doesn't pay in bulk he pays in "tiny" piece meal.

Be careful with the lawyer, he might be collecting money from your back maybe few %, and letting them go. next thing in his mind is how to take the full property, it sounds crazy. just be smart with him and pray always.
