Reading: I’m worried, I was a manager at a company that shut down. The landlord had an agreement with the owner which expired, and there are unpaid rent bills. Now, the landlord is sending notices to my home, even though I was just an employee and haven’t been paid for months. I feel unfairly targeted and harassed. I’m jobless and now getting legal notices. I’m stressed and don’t understand why I’m being served. Should I respond? What should I do? Please help!

You are not legally obligated to pay the company’s unpaid rent. The landlord cannot target you personally for the company’s debts. It’s best to consult a lawyer to respond to the notices and protect yourself from further harassment.
