Your landlord will not fix anything and he will not let us get it fixed what can you do to break the lease?

If the item(s) that need fixing is an essential item for living in the rental unit, you have the right to deliver a notice at least seven days before the rent is due, that the item needs to be fixed or you will fix it and offset it from the rent. The landlord may still evict you, but if the repair was essential you will win. And your landlord will be subject to damages you can claim of up to three months of rent abatement (Florida).

The condo you rent in the san Fernando valley was damaged by a water leak the HOA and management co have not begun repairs and you had to move out the leak was 20 days ago what can you do as renters?

What you can do is refer to your lease with your landlord, the owner of the condominium. Unfortunately for you, you may not be included in the 'official chain' of responsibility for fixing the damage or paying for it. This also means that your rights may be limited. You can ask your landlord for a refund of rental monies paid, and work with the landlord to otherwise be compensated for your significant inconvenience.

Can you sue your landlord for not fixing your broken sewer pipe under the house?

Actually, you have several avenues to take. You can place your rent in a non-interest escrow account in lieu of paying it to the landlord, until repairs are made. This option may not be available in all locations, so check local landlord-tenant laws. You can report the landlord to the local housing authority for failure to safely maintain the property. You can sue the landlord in many jurisdictions for breach of contract, especially if you signed a rental agreement or lease. If the broken sewer pipe is resulting in the release of untreated sewage into the structure or the nearby property, you may be able to relocate at the landlord's expense. Your safest bet is to contact an attorney who specializes in landlord-tenant issues. If you do not have sufficient funds, contact your local legal aid office or the local Bar Association (where you can find a list of Pro Bono representatives), and get the assistance you will need.
