Legal Question in Real Estate Law in New York

Re: Getting Tenant out for non payment

DO NOT CHANGE THE LOCKS!!!! It is illegal and will only hinder your cause rather than help it. You need to have a summary proceeding for eviction filed in the housing Court in your county. There are very specific guidelines that must be followed, as such it is highly reccomended that you retain an attorney to handle such a matter for you. This area of law is our specialty, and we charge reasonable rates, however, we would need some more information before making a complete and proper determination. You are welcome to contact us for a free consultation.
