Re: Tenant refusal to pay rent

Depending on the actual type and content of Notice you've given and the method you used (personal service, certified mail, etc) and depending on the type of tenant she is, you may or may not have given the proper notice as required by NY State law. The law is very specific as to exactly the wording required in these Notices and the manner in which they must be served upon the tenant. This area of law is our specialty, however, we would need some more information before making a complete and proper determination. You are welcome to contact us for a free consultation.
