Housing Court

Housing Court is a specialized court that deals with legal disputes related to residential property, such as landlord-tenant issues, evictions, rent control, and housing code violations. Its purpose is to resolve conflicts between landlords and tenants efficiently, often involving cases of unpaid rent or unsafe living conditions. The court typically offers a more informal environment than other courts, aiming to facilitate resolutions while ensuring that both parties understand their rights and responsibilities. Housing Court plays a vital role in upholding housing laws and protecting tenants from unfair practices.
