Can A Landlord Keep All Security Deposits If The Landlord Terminates The Lease?

This question will depend on the terms within your signed lease agreement, your evidence of compliance, and the state in which you are residing (perhaps, even the city). Each state has specific landlord-tenant statutes - not every place is the same. Contact your local legal aid (you can get their number through the state's Bar Association) - they can provide a free initial consult, and a fee scale dependent on income. They will assign an attorney who specializes or understands that area of law. Full attorneys often do work for legal aid - it's good PR and provides a much needed service.
