Commercial Tenant Rights

In the State of New York, commercial tenant rights have a narrower scope of protections than residential tenants, so as a wise tenant, you should know your rights and have excellent legal representation to protect them.

Landlord Failing to Comply?

If your landlord fails to comply with the terms of the lease, you may want to withhold your rent, which will likely trigger a lawsuit. However, you may have defenses or a cause of action (counterclaim) against your landlord under certain circumstances, if he/she:

Fails to provide a functional space, even if the space becomes unusable due to causes out of the landlord’s control, such as the 9/11 attacks.

Interferes with building services, as in the case where the elevator breaks or the lights in the corridor go out, and he/she fails to repair these items.

Allows the building to deteriorate, “commits waste” or fails to make required repairs.

Fails to provide essential services and maintenance, such as utility connections, heat and air conditioning, access to an entry door, or ability to use a parking lot.

Delivers a short notice of eviction, especially when it suits the landlord’s aim to evict you so he/she can pursue a better business opportunity.
