    Taking Ex-Roommate To Small Claims Court
    I am currently residing in Oklahoma and have had my first bad experience with a roommate. We signed a 6 month lease 3 months ago and she has now moved out as of the beginning of January. She did not give me any money for the remainder of the rent so now I am stuck paying the entire amount until the lease is up. I know I will have to take her to small claims court to be reimbursed, but my question is what should I do in the meantime to document everything so I can be sure of a win. I want to make sure when I go to court I have everything to prove my case and also what are my chances of actually getting my money back?

    I would suggest trying to find a suitable replacement roommate, and documenting your efforts. You can also try to anticipate whatever excuse she might have for walking out, and how you might respond to her allegations.
