“Jonathan” was displaced from his home after it was destroyed in a fire. Through his insurance, his family was placed in an apartment complex while they decide whether to rebuild or move. Jonathan has physical disabilities, including quadriplegia, so he needed a number of modifications to the new apartment, including a keyless entry door lock, a Wi-Fi-capable thermostat, and a door handle to replace the knob on his back patio door. Unfortunately, he and his wife were unable to get permission from the property management to make the necessary modifications to the apartment.
Fair Housing Unit attorney Robert Maldonado sent a reasonable modification request on Jonathan’s behalf, asking that he be allowed to make the necessary changes to his unit.
After negotiation with the property management, Jonathan was allowed to make the modifications, and he and his family remain stably housed.
