I cosigned a lease in. Three years later I get a letter from Springman tell me I owe over $2000 in back rent and apartment clean up. The apartment was left in good condition and some rent was due. I asked Springman and their client to work with me and settle for a lesser amount. They refused and took me to small claims court. In court, I had asked them several times for pictures and documentation for the clean up. They refused. Paul Farrar, their attorney, said under Colorado law that they were not required to provide documentation unless it was a jury trial and I was not allowed to talk to a judge unless I requested a jury trial. I have spoken to two attorneys since then, and both tell me this is incorrect. They do not to provide documentation and I should have been able to have the matter reviewed by a judge the day I was at court. This attorney lied and would not listen to anything I had to say. I was intimated by him and signed a stipulation to pay the amount they requested. Do not do business with this company!
