fire
hello, I just received an text message from my landlord stating i have to pay the deductible, due to when my kitchen caught on fire when i was frying french fries, it was't major damages, only to the stove and microwave and these were mines and i replaced that, they only had to paint the kitchen walls they werent burnt just the black stuff from the smoke and we cleaned the walls, but they told us not to clean the walls and asked us to stop. they cabinets are what got just a little burnt mainly the cabinet over the stove, however she still hasnt replaced the cabinets. can she do this i'm from winston salem nc.

I would politely ask for a receipt/documentation that the insurance sent the landlord. If they only painted the place, I don't see why they would have put in an insurance claim anyway. Are you sure more wasn't fixed?
