Complaint Review: C & S Enterprises

I rented from C&S from August 2013-2014 at 10122 Palms. They, including David Kornblum, represented to me that the deductions made to my security deposit would be minimal. I moved out and was charged $150 for cleaning and about $400 for painting. Surprised, I continually attempted to obtain itemized receipts and contact information of the individuals that performed the work, but C&S was persistently evasive. I finally got the contact info of the painter, which is required by law, but he was of no help. They even went so far as to ask if I was sure I wanted the painter's number, as he hardly knew english. Later, I finally got it out of C&S that I would never receive itemized receipts for the deductions made to my security deposit. 

In sum, C&S consistently failed to abide by procedural requirements of the civil code, such as including the painter's contact information with my final statement, and when coupled with many other of C&S' inconsistencies, leads me to believe that the charges to my security deposit were unreasonable--I can't justify the charges made to my security deposit because C&S won't give me receipts, and I don't believe C&S can justify the charges because, as they told me, they've never prepared such itemized receipts and won't be providing me with any. 

I have a longer explanation summarizing the full picture of my experience with C&S, and am happy to provide it to anyone (And if anyone has had a similar experience, please reach out to me as I am currently suing C&S in small claims).

In my attempts to have C&S explain their actions to me so that I could have potential closure in why about $550 was withheld from me, C&S called me a harasser, told me to forget what I've learned school, and was condescending in general.

Please be careful in renting from C&S--I feel blindsided, and I don't want anyone else to endure such an experience.
