A: Hello, is this the Legal Advice Line?
B: You are in the right department. What can I do for you?
A: I think that the landlord where I am trying to rent an apartment may be discriminating against me.
B: Discrimination is a pretty broad term. What type, specifically?
A: I have a feeling that he will not consider my application because of my race.
B: Are you sure that race was the issue? What makes you feel this way?
A: When he saw me in person, he seemed bothered by me although I seemed to be under consideration when I e-mailed him.
B: Do you have any proof that he would not rent to you because of your race?
A: I didn’t see one person in that whole building who wasn’t the same race as the manager.
B: It is difficult to prove racial discrimination, but you may file a formal complaint in our office.
