Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in New York

Re: Tenant wont pay!! Please help!

The only way to get him out if he does not leave voluntarily is an eviction proceeding via the court system. You need to have a special notice to vacate served on the tenant based on the fact that he had a license to remain on the premises. Then a Notice of petition and Petition must be personally served which establishes a Court Case. NYS has very specific and technical procedures that must be followed very carefully. One slight error and you have to start back at square one. As such, it is highly advisable to retain an attorney that is familiar with the process. This area of law is our specialty, however, we would need some more information before making a complete and proper determination. You are welcome to contact us for a free consultation.
