Legal Question in Real Estate Law in New York
Lease Contract.
If part of a clause on a written lease is false, invalid, or an illegal statement, does that make the whole lease null and void, or can other parts of a lease still be held in regard?

No. It will only void that one clause in the lease, unless the underlying obligation in the lease (ex. illegal basement apartment) is illegal. Then the entire lease would be null and void.
