Commercial Eviction
Are you being evicted in New York City?
If you've been operating a successful business, you know how tough the competitive environment can be. You work hard, establish a connection with the neighborhood, and build up a base of clients. Then one day you receive a letter saying that your commercial building is going condo, or worse, workers simply commence construction around you. Maybe you receive a frivolous notice to cure or notice to terminate your lease designed to get you to leave your business premises. What are your rights as a tenant? Do you have any legal recourse?
If you are a business owner facing an eviction, or if a developer or building owner is constructively interfering with your business, you need the help of a lawyer with experience and a strong understanding of commercial real estate law. With the help of a New York City landlord tenant attorney, you will have an increased chance of obtaining the results you need.

Condo Conversion Eviction
If you are a commercial tenant occupying an office or other space in a commercial building, and you learn that your landlord is in the process of converting the building into residential condominiums, make sure you protect your interests and understand your rights. If your landlord commences a course of conduct that can only be described as harassment and that is designed to get you out of the building, please contact us immediately so we can take steps to protect you.
You are entitled to the quiet enjoyment of your space, to the services to which your lease entitles you, and to the use and enjoyment of the common areas. Under New York law, your landlord cannot unreasonably interfere with your use of space and must provide you with the promised services. The Law Offices of Steven R. Sutton can assist you in asserting your rights to protect your business moving forward.
