Practical and Effective Advice for Long Island Landlords
Seasoned residential and commercial landlords throughout New York State understand the age-old dilemma: you can spend half your time looking for tenants and the other half trying to get rid of them. At the firm of Anthony M. Parlatore, Attorney at Law, we advise Suffolk County landlords, property managers and real estate investment groups about avoiding and resolving landlord-tenant problems. Contact us in Setauket to learn more about our rental property practice.
Proceed with caution: New York law protects tenants' rights
Mistakes in residential leasing, lease documentation, or the form and timing of notices and demands can set you back in any action to enforce your rental agreement or recover possession of leased premises. Our general advice about your leasing practices and forms or specific counsel in problem situations can help you avoid the missteps that can delay enforcement of your rights against a problem tenant.
Our attorneys help landlords resolve such problems as:
- Defaults in rent or other commitments
- Holding over beyond the term of the lease
- Disputes over options, renewal or assignment rights
- Tenant nuisance involving noise, maintenance or criminal activity
- Enforcing rights to past-due rents
- Alleged habitability issues
- Town code violations and enforcement actions
With long experience in unlawful detainers, holdover actions, eviction proceedings and municipal hearings, we know how to pursue your rights in strict accordance with all applicable laws and regulations. That means that you won't be holding the bag for an extra month or two of uncollectable rent while your lawyer undoes procedural mistakes.
