Housing and Eviction
This category includes information about evictions, problems with your landlord, and some information about subsidized (reduced-rent) housing.

Please note that New York City has some very different rules and procedures.

Please also note that some local police departments and courts may not be well-informed of tenants' rights.

About LawNY

LawNY is a non-profit law firm that provides free legal aid to people who live in 14 counties in western New York.

LawNY offices may be able to help you with problems such as welfare terminations, divorces, evictions, SSI denials, or other problems if you live in one of these counties we cover.

Because our funding is limited, we can't help everyone who wants a lawyer. For more information, click here.
