Situation:
1.Got a letter from my landlord's lawyer stating that the telephone installation/wiring is close to the steampipe and therefore unacceptable and unsafe.
2. Technicians from Verizon came over to check the installation and verified that this is safe.
3. The verizon foreman/manager even confirmed this. And told me that they dont issue any written acknowledgemnt. He gave me his phone# instead.
Question:
1. Am I still liable to my landlord even if the Verizon installation is in the basement and not actually inside the apartment? Is there any law on this?
2. What can I do? What should I tell my landlord? Verizon doesnt issue any written statements.
