The housing market gives rise to substantial complex issues in the landlord-tenant relationship that may arise when dealing with the laws regulating housing maintenance standards in New York City. Our landlord-tenant practice seeks to help our clients navigate the state and local laws regarding housing conditions and to negotiate and resolve any potential or existing legal issues between the landlord and tenant. However, there will inevitably be situations where we will represent our clients to demand repairs or restitution, pursue and collect rent, and institute or defend against an eviction proceeding when the landlord-tenant relationship has been strained and is irreparable.
The areas of our landlord-tenant practice include:
- Illegal Eviction Proceedings
- Housing Part (“HP”) Proceedings
- 7A Proceedings (Court-Supervised Administrator)
- Nonpayment of Rent Actions
- Holdover Proceedings
- Illegal Occupancy
- Property Damage Litigation
- Rent-Stabilized Issues
- Yellowstone Injunctions
