Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in New York

It appears that you have what would be considered a Licensee situation as there was no rental agreement and no rent paid. However, licensees in these situations have the same rights as tenants due in terms of the requirement that in order to evict them, they must be served with a proper notice and you must go through housing court channels and file proceedings for eviction in a very similar manner as you would for a Tenant. As New York State law is very specific as to the exact wording required in these Notices and the manner in which they must be served upon the tenant, it is highly advisable to retain the services of an attorney experienced in these areas. We have handled many such cases, however, we would need some more information before making a complete and proper determination. You are welcome to contact us for a free consultation.
