🏠 Stuck Between DIY and Expensive Lawyers? You’re Not Alone.

- Small landlords in NYC face a brutal reality:

- You’re too small for big law firms, but too complex for DIY forms.

- One missed deadline or formatting error can dismiss your case — even if you’re in the right.

- New laws like “Good Cause Eviction” create confusion — especially for owners of 1–3 unit buildings.

- NYSCEF e-filing is a technical minefield — upload the wrong file? Your case gets rejected.

- You’re drowning in paperwork: leases, notices, ledgers, emails — but don’t know how to turn them into winning exhibits.

NYC Housing Court won’t wait. Procedural missteps cost time, money, and sometimes, your ability to enforce your rights.

❓ Landlord FAQ: Quick Answers to Common Questions

Q: Are you lawyers? Can you represent me in court?

A: No. We are NOT attorneys and cannot provide legal advice or appear in court for you. We are certified document preparers focused on procedural accuracy and court compliance.

Q: How fast can you turn around an eviction petition?

A: For urgent deadlines, we offer same-day or 24-hour rush service (additional fee may apply). Standard turnaround is 2–3 business days.

Q: What documents do I need to get started?
