Legal Question in Real Estate Law in New York
co-op rental
I have a co-op apt. My granddaughter and her 2 children lived there with me for 10 years. I moved and left her in the apt. She has lived there for over a year with no problems from the board. Now they are trying to evict her (a board member wants the apt for her daughter) though they have no real reason. Maintenance payments have always been in full and on time. There have been other scams with apts and board members in this building. Should I bring this up when I go to court and what rights do I have? Any advice anyone.

This is a very serious matter and it happens a lot. you should seek professional help from a lawyer, to show him all the papers you have received and most likely you will have to take it to court. Contact our firm if you need assistance.

You should seriously consider haveing an attorney representing your interests when you do go to court. the court will usually grant you an adjournement without a problem if you indicate that you need some time to find an attorney. When at court you want to bring up everything relevant to the boards treatment of you and your family and anything to defend your rights as an owner of the coop. Having a lawyer experienced in this area would greatly increase your chance of an outcome in your favor. This area of law is our specialty, and we are very reasonable with the fees we charge, however, we would need some more information before making a complete and proper determination.
