I really need a good lawyer recommendation for dealing with this nightmare of a tenant. He was renting a room in my house (I also live here - so it's sort of a roommate situation). He stopped paying 2 months ago. Now he's increasingly hostile (cursing all the time, spitting right in the middle of the living room, trashing my food, etc..). I had to call the police to file a harassment report.
What's the best course of action here? Any good lawyer recs are really welcome.
Laws are far more favorable in your situation. I'd reach out to Derek Reed at Ehrlich Petriello Gudin & Plaza. (973) 718-2229. Very skilled in what you need.
