Navigating landlord-tenant relationships in New York City can be complex and, at times, overwhelming. With some of the most tenant-protective laws in the country and constant changes in rent regulations, it’s crucial for both landlords and tenants to understand their rights — and know when to seek legal support.
At Gerzon Law, real estate attorney Anna Gerzon provides reliable, knowledgeable legal services for landlords and tenants throughout NYC. Whether you’re dealing with a lease issue, a rent dispute, or a potential eviction, we’re here to help you find a fair and legal resolution.
For Landlords
As a landlord, your property is your investment — and protecting it requires more than just a lease agreement. We help landlords with:
-
Lease Drafting and Review – Ensure your lease agreements are legally sound and compliant with New York laws, including updated rent stabilization rules.
-
Non-Payment and Holdover Proceedings – When eviction becomes necessary, we guide you through the process from proper notice to Housing Court representation.
-
Rent Disputes and Arrears – Whether you’re facing a tenant who has fallen behind or a dispute over utilities or damages, we provide strategic support to resolve the issue.
-
Regulatory Compliance – Stay up-to-date with local laws including DHCR filings, rent registration, and NYC housing codes.
For Tenants
Tenants in New York have strong legal protections — but enforcing them can be difficult without the right representation. Anna Gerzon can help tenants with:
-
Unlawful Evictions – If you’re being forced out without due process, we’ll defend your rights and fight for your legal protections in court.
-
Lease Reviews and Negotiations – Before signing a lease, it’s essential to know what you’re agreeing to. We’ll review the terms and flag any concerns.
-
Repairs and Habitability Issues – If your landlord is ignoring maintenance requests or providing unsafe living conditions, we’ll help hold them accountable.
-
Security Deposit Disputes – Recover what’s owed to you when a landlord withholds your deposit without cause.
