No statements or facts found on this site are to be mistaken for legal advice. Any information on this site may not be up to date. The information on this site pertains to New York law only, with an emphasis on New York City. Eviction law and practice in other jurisdictions is different, and generally happens faster. I practice in State and Federal Courts in New York State. I do not practice outside New York State. This site in no way establishes an attorney/client relationship. We are a debt relief agency. We help people file for bankruptcy relief under the Bankruptcy Code. We also handle many cases that never involve bankruptcy. The choice is for the client to make.
