Brooklyn Landlord/Tenant Lawyer Needed

11:57 PM 05/06/2012

 

Checked the archives and there were very few posts on this topic. We need an attorney to handle a non-payment in BK Housing Court (we are landlord/plaintiffs). We don't need or want an ultra-high priced attorney that will end up costing us several thousand dollars for a basic non-payment. We just need someone competent, who does BK Housing Court full-time, is not a zombie and is reasonable in terms of fees (he or she may even have flat fees for a run of the mill non-payment). Many thanks in advance for the recs.

    There is Robert Koeppel  (718-858-5727) at 44 Court St.
    He represents only landlords full time. Just be prepared, he does this every day, and sometimes doesn't want to listen to clients bitch and moan about how unfair the system is. On the other hand they charge standardized fees per case (so much per notice,so much per appearance) there is no by the hour billing, so his fees are cheap.

    I've dealt with Marc Aronson (offices on Smith Street) for this kind of thing, and he is pretty darned impressive.  Worth asking what his fees might be for this.
