Firstly try to negotiate with him on your own. If that doesn't work send him legal notice. Even I can negotiate on your behalf. Further, you can file suit for recovery to claim deposit + interest+ compensation for harrasment+ litigation fees. Feel free to contact me and provide more details to assist you better.

First of all rather than going legally you should serve him/her a legal notice and in that notice you can write that either pay my money or face legal action which will be at your own risk. After that if he/she fails to give you a satisfactory reply then you can anytime file a recovery suit in the court to claim your money back along with compensations.

If the landlord does not return the rent deposit as per the rental agreement, the tenant can send a legal notice demanding the refund. If the landlord fails to comply, the tenant may file a civil suit for recovery of the amount before the appropriate court. We can help you in matter
