Legal Question in Business Law in Indiana

I work in an office building as an HR Manager, in a building with other tenants. Our office has been open for only about 6 months here, and before I began working here the other tenants were already making complaints about our office. The first complaint was that our meetings were too loud. That issue was resolved. The next complaint was that our employees use the public restrooms to change before leaving work. That was also taken care of and has not happened. The next accusations made about our employees, was that our CEO left the buildings doors unlocked, which is incorrect. The building has surveillance cameras as well, but the other office tenants told the landlord that it was us, which later became proven to not be us. The other morning, I was using the women's restroom, and at the sink placed my purse on the counter and pulled out a compact to powder my face. A lady from the complaining office made a comment saying "Good lord, these girls doing their makeup in the restroom!" So now another complaint. Our landlord has threatened to ask us to leave, but continue to pay the 2yr lease. At this point it is clear they can say and exaggerate any detail or fabricate any story...to get us kicked out. I feel I was harassed, and we are not being treated fairly and are dealing with harassment here in our building. We also feel like our office employees no longer have any tenant rights, and are being subjected to harassment. My question is there anything we can do about this, or are we really being told that we can be forced out because of these bias, petty complaints?

You have nothing to lose by having an attorney send a cease and desist letter.
