Residential & Commercial Eviction Proceedings

Andrea specialized in holdover and nonpayment eviction proceedings in for commercial and residential landlords.  

Landlord/Tenant litigation is a complex area of law that became more intricate and time consuming on June 14, 2019 when new legislation was enacted in New York that makes it more expensive, and more time consuming, to evict problem tenants.

While some portions of the law apply only to residential tenancies, many portions apply to both residential and commercial tenancies.

It is critical that the correct documents be properly prepared and served within a very short time period. It is equally important that strategic decisions are made as to whether the proceeding should be brought as a holdover or a nonpayment proceeding.

If the proper decisions are not made and the proper procedure not adhered to, the court may set the eviction set aside or the landlord may be facing a lengthy trial and possible damages owed to the tenant.

That being said, most evictions can be handled with one court appearance. Call Andrea today and she will help you address the problem in an efficient manner.
