We work with clients from all aspects of a real estate transactions: owners, developers, investors, sellers, guarantors, commercial and retail tenants, and loan applicants. Regardless of how the case proceeds, one thing we can promise is that we will aggressively fight for our clients, each and every time.
Landlord And Tenant Disputes
The regulations concerning landlords and property owners are constantly evolving, with rent stabilization laws and rent control among the most challenging for landlords. Our office will work with you to ensure that your rights are strongly defended and that you are well-advised and represented in matters brought before the Housing Court, Civil Court, or Supreme Court.
At Roy Farid LLP, we also have experience in representing owners and landlords in cases around non- payment and holdover proceedings – whether that is due to illegal subletting, objectional conduct, or any other issues. Our comprehensive knowledge of New York real estate law allows us to handle many of these disputes pre-court, with a quicker, more satisfactory result for our client.
Land Use and Boundary Disputes
Roy Farid LLP works with our clients to ensure that they can maximize their property development or usage without impediment from neighbors or the government. This area of law requires a deep knowledge of the various laws and regulations that affect land use and development.
Matters involving land use require matters to be brought before the City Planning Commission, the Board of Standards and Appeals, the Department of Buildings, the Landmarks Preservation Commission, the Department of Housing Preservation and Development, and the Economic Development Corporation. We advise and represent our clients with a focus on achieving developmental objectives.
We represent property owners, professional developers, investors, architects, planners, and engineers.
Appeals
New York Appellate Courts allow attorneys to bring cases for review of decisions by lower-level courts. Appellate decisions set new precents. At Roy Farid LLP, we have experience in both bringing and defending appeals and can assist in all phases of the process – including the preparing briefs, perfecting the record, identifying particular strengths and weaknesses in the appellate court record, and dealing with applications for further appellate review if required.
Appellate law requires a very different skill set than a standard litigation case – it requires an attorney who can accurately identify mistakes of law, misinterpretations of the record below, and/or the application of incorrect facts to case law. At Farid Law Office we work on appeals arising from our cases and those handled by other law firms. We argue appeals in all New York State Appellate Courts, including the Court of Appeals.
