Evictions

Tenants’ Rights Lawyers

To the landlord, it may be a building that produces income, but it’s your home. You and your family may have lived there for years, paying your rent faithfully, but the owner has other objectives. The result: You receive a notice of termination – an eviction notice. What are your rights?

Fight back! We’re on your side.

Our lawyers will defend your rights as a tenant.

When a landlord serves you with an eviction notice, there are reasons listed in the notice. The real reason is often not in the notice – the landlord wants to make a bigger profit from the building by charging a higher rent or converting the building to another use.

In a holdover proceeding, the landlord will challenge your right to stay in your home. There may be a claim that you are not really living there, that you are subletting illegally. There may be a claim that you are a nuisance tenant. Be aware of your rights. Talk to the lawyers at our tenants’ rights law firm.

In twenty-eight years of experience, the lead real estate evictions defense attorney at Silberman Law Firm has seen many different ways building owners use to bypass the rights of tenants. If you are being pressured to move out of your rent stabilized apartment, make sure you know your rights and options.

If you have received an eviction notice for nonpayment of rent, our real estate law firm may be able to negotiate a way to keep you in your home. Don’t give up. Talk to a lawyer with knowledge of rent control and rent stabilization, and with extensive tenants’ rights experience.
