Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in New York
I'm recently been taking to court for eviction. My landlord is saying I owe nine months of rent. She is claiming on my three day notice that she hasn't received rent all this year, when I have the money order receipts to prove so. I have been to court twice in two weeks, each time postpone to the following week because her lawyer wasn't prepared. He wants to meet with me on Friday to go over her receipts and mine. Her three day notice is a falsification of documents. Should I get a lawyer before my next court date?

Yes, get a lawyer. DO NOT MEET THIS LAWYER OR LANDLORD OUTSIDE OF THE COURTHOUSE UNLESS YOU HAVE A LAWYER. This case should have been dismissed already.
