Representation yes if the lawyer is honest the represent you go right ahead if you're right . What do you do if a lawyer is a devious double talking conover? I got two squatters and two different apartments in my three family I've taken these two and four other during the pandemic cuz they had no place to live. Three of them became hoarder with over 150 bags of food given from the school rotting away in a cube refrigerator. left on the rug with soda bottles; spilled on the rug. a cat litter box that smell here to high heaven.. they left eventually. I got two squatters one of them had me attacked by homophobic pizza store owner.. just 2 years ago. and the police refused to make a report so I can claim some victims compensation to help pay for my medical bills,meds physical and psychological therapy. It's caused me a lot of depression cuz I can't hardly walk anymore they just 73 I was still very athletic. but now with the torn meniscus in my left causing me scoliosis and lack of balance... so this is thanks again for helping homeless people you never know they were homeless cuz they're more well-dressed than I am.. I'm the one limping what does permanent injury and I see people crossing the street avoid passing me by because they think I'm homeless I presume when I'm walking with my cane now.. so that's the American Justice we have with squatters destroying new owners like me. I've been out to get homeless and tenant activist since 1977.. I've lost over $200,000 with these two squatters in 2 qpts. I got to pay all the bills electricity gas water heaters mogage repairs plenty of them cause by squatters so that's what you get for helping orher. they get free representation and I got to pay for psychiatrist and medical bills American Justice is a joke..

Honestly the owners are only wasting there time, energy and money going to court. Just meet with the squatter, and ask him his price for vacanting the property.

Your comment about property damage made me think of our own experience. Years ago when we were house hunting in Toronto, we looked at a foreclosure. Bank got rid of the tenants & the place was empty but the previous people that lived there dumped cement down every drain in the house. I don't think they were squatters--just disgruntled tenants or previous homeowners that were pissed off. Fortunately, we found another house that we are still in. I often wonder what happened with that sale because we would never buy that !

An audio recording is not a legal, signed document and won't stand in court. This squatter is just buying time and will try to drag this out in court.

NEVER purchase a house with someone living in it - legally or illegally. When I purchased my last home, the owner asked if they could have a tenant until the deal closes - I said "no way."

before you close on a house you do a final walk through, the house should be 100% empty before you sign the documents, no sign of someone living there....empty. Right after closing you change the locks...

So sad for the home owners, does it pay to own a home in NYC I don't think so. Lawmakers need to do something

It's ridiculous that the courts keep adjourning and wont just do their job. If the court day came and went and the defendent didn't show up with the evidence, then screw them!

Thank God I live in Maryland. Squatters have to occupy the living space for 20yrs before their rights to the property kicks in. In New York after only 30 days they have rights to the property. This is a lesson for everyone to educate themselves on squatter rights/laws prior opening your home to family, friends, caregivers, air bnb/rentals, etc. for extended stays.
