Landlord-Tenant Representation

Protecting Your Property. Protecting Your Rights.

Whether you're a landlord trying to enforce your lease or a tenant defending your home, Boatswain Law Group, P.C. is here to help. We represent both landlords and tenants across New York and New Jersey, with a clear, practical, and aggressive approach when needed — and a sharp focus on protecting what matters most.

For Landlords

We assist landlords with prosecuting nonpayment and holdover proceedings, including cases involving expired leases, unauthorized occupancy, and nuisance claims. Our services also include drafting and enforcing leases, pursuing property damage claims, bringing actions against illegal occupants, and defending against tenant claims such as warranty of habitability violations.

For Tenant

We assist tenants with defending against nonpayment and holdover evictions, pursuing warranty of habitability claims for unsafe or unlivable conditions, challenging illegal lockouts and retaliatory evictions, resolving lease disputes and security deposit issues, and negotiating settlement agreements to protect their housing rights and financial interests.
