It all depends on how you were evicted and why you were evicted.
Did the landlord go to court to evict you or did he perform self-help?
What was the reason for the eviction?
I see you live in Suffolk County.
You should read the information on the Suffolk County landlord/tenant website.
If you believe you being are or have been illegally evicted, you might have a claim against the landlord.
