Don’t give up
without a fight.
In NYC, thousands of tenants have the right to a lawyer when
facing an eviction case. 84% of tenants who had a lawyer through
the City’s Right to Counsel program avoided eviction. You don’t
have to fight eviction alone.
Help is available Citywide. Call 311 and ask about the
Right to Counsel to find out if you’re eligible.
