Brick Underground Office Hours

  • Summary

  • Renting in New York City usually comes with some kind of headache—a broken elevator, a rent increase, leaks, mold, the list goes on. In this episode, tenant attorney Sam Himmelstein, a partner at Himmelstein McConnell Gribben & Joseph and a longtime sponsor of Brick Underground, sits down for our first live Office Hours.

    Some of the questions addressed during the event include: Can I be charged fees for late rent payments if it isn't in the lease? What are landlords' obligations for cleaning common areas? Can a landlord increase my rent in retaliation if I complain about conditions? How do I handle mold? Another important issue: How to check if your apartment is rent-stabilized. You can see the video on YouTube.

    Tenant attorney Sam Himmelstein writes Brick Underground's popular Ask a Renter's Rights Lawyer column.
