Need NY Landlord Attorney familiar with LINC program

Hello All,

Just let me start off by saying I love BP!! It's such a HUGE knowledge bank. 

I'm in  need of some help. I own a 4--plex in  Brooklyn, NY. I have a tenant their rent is subsidized by the LINC program ( Living In Neighborhood Community), it's similar to Section 8, designed to help families in homeless shelters find housing.

Bottomline, the tenant'' lease is expiring at the end of February 2017. I do NOT wish to renew the lease due to various problems with this tenant ( complaints about tenant smoking weed in the hallway; tenant being late at least 5 times with paying rent and incurring late; tenant refused to allow complete access to apartment during annual inspection; constant yelling and screaming coming from tenant' apartment, etc).

I need to find a NY Landlord/Tenant  attorney who works in the Brooklyn, NY and is very familiar with LINC housing program and/ or Section 8 program.

Thank you for any information you can provide.
