No, you cannot represent your Corporation in court. You must hire a lawyer. The reason is that your corporation is not you; it must be represented by an attorney.

Find one fast. You have both affirmative defenses to the eviction and countersuit for damages as a breach on the part of the landlord. From what little you said, the right landlord/tenant attorney should be able to help you. Note that your rights are controlled by the written lease and other agreements. Read your lease.

Good Luck
