Legal Answers

Q. How can I exit my joint venture contract in NY due to partner's inexperience?: March 4, 2025; A: Your rights depend, first and foremost, on the terms of the contract surrounding early termination, interpreted in light of background legal precedent. Have an attorney review the contract to advise you of your rights, as well as the best way to seek a release from the contract while minimizing your legal exposure.

Q. Can a company fire me for breaking policy while others only get a warning?: March 4, 2025; A: If there is evidence indicating that the disparate enforcement of company policy was motivated by illegal bias, you may have a case for wrongful termination based on discrimination against your former employer. Be sure to act in a timely manner as such claims are subject to strict time limitations.

Q. Can landlord decline to renew lease right after you have been complaining about services to the owner? Retaliatory?: July 26, 2024; A: In New York, when a landlord terminates your tenancy within one year of lodging a complaint about the premises, you may have a retaliatory eviction defense to summary eviction proceedings in housing court. If you prevail, the petition to evict will be dismissed, and you may be awarded additional monetary compensation and attorney’s fees. Have a lawyer evaluate your case to see if you have enough evidence to support your defense and counterclaim.
