    Landlord Eviction New York State
    I'm renting a room in my house. No lease. The tenant is $560 in arrears. I served him a
    Notice Sept 5th stating Immediate Payment is Required. He then paid $150. And I sent
    Another Full Payment Due Notice.

    I need to know
    1. the proper form (eviction 30 day notice?)
    2. if I can serve it myself
    - or who to call for a server
    3. the place to file (small claims?)
    4. how and when to legally remove left over belongings.
    5. when I can change the locks.
    6. if I DO need a lawyer.
    - can I save money and use any legal aid?
    7. anything else I haven't thought of.

    Thank you very much.
    With much appreciation,
    Deb

    Start here:
    NYS Real Property Actions and Proceedings Law (RPAPL)

    The process is outlined starting with Section 731. You need to go your local Housing Court or the equivalent.
