Landlord not returning deposit

We moved out of the property about a month ago. My landlady had some issues with the house (most of the stuff we do not feel are our responsibility or stupidly pedantic) she said that she was getting works done and would let us know how much she wants 'in due course'. However, its been 3 weeks and she still hasn't given us any word on what's occurring. She rejects our repayment claims on DPS and just responds to our emails with she'll get back to us. This has become incredibly frustrating as I really need this money and without it I literally have nothing until the end of September. Is there anyway we can hurry her up with a decision without going through courts?

Well, if she refuses to use ADR then court is the route to take.
Often it only takes filling in the form and letting the LL know you have initiated proceedings to get a response.
If you don't do it, she has no impetus to move.
I assume you have good evidence.0
