Landlord Representation in NYC Housing Matters

New York City’s rent regulations and housing laws are among the most complex in the country. At Snider Law PLLC, we guide landlords through every stage of the legal process, from lease drafting and compliance to enforcement and eviction proceedings. 

Our firm represents owners of rent-stabilized and market-rate properties and has successfully handled actions in all significant landlord categories, including:

  • Non-payment proceedings – Recovering unpaid rent while ensuring proper notice and compliance with procedural rules.
  • Holdover proceedings – Regaining possession based on lease violations or end-of-lease occupancy.
  • Illegal sublet and unauthorized occupants – Addressing unapproved tenants or subleasing arrangements.
  • Non-primary residence – Recovering units improperly used as secondary residences.
  • Owner-use – Regaining occupancy for personal or family use under applicable rules.
  • Nuisance or criminal activity – Removing tenants whose actions endanger other residents or violate the law.
  • Month-to-month tenancy termination and lease expiration – Managing terminations in compliance with NYC and state law.
  • Failure to renew a rent-stabilized lease – Addressing non-renewal or improper lease handling by tenants.
  • Employee and superintendent terminations – Lawful removal of staff from on-site housing.

We prepare and serve the required notices, appear in court, and help owners comply with evolving regulations to protect their investments and minimize legal exposure.
