DOB, HPD, ECB — every NYC agency, every violation type. We handle the entire resolution process so you don't have to.
Department of Buildings violations left unresolved escalate into stop work orders, hefty fines, and blocked permits. We navigate the DOB system — paperwork, inspections, and sign-off coordination — so your building stays compliant and your permits keep moving.
Housing Preservation & Development violations — from heat and hot water complaints to apartment maintenance orders — must be resolved before they land in housing court. We handle Class A, B, and C violations and keep you out of the courtroom.
Environmental Control Board and OATH hearings require skilled representation. We prepare your case, challenge invalid or improperly issued violations, and negotiate reduced penalties — including default judgments that have grown far beyond the original fine.
Proactive audits of your property's full violation history across all agencies. We identify hidden liabilities, prioritize resolution order, and build a roadmap to keep your building clean — before problems become emergencies.
Every month a violation sits open, the risk grows. ECB fines accrue interest. DOB holds block permits. HPD issues escalate to housing court. The cost of waiting almost always exceeds the cost of resolving.
It depends on the agency and violation type. HPD violations often resolve in 2–6 weeks. DOB violations typically take 4–10 weeks. ECB default judgments can take 3–8 weeks once we file. We give you a specific timeline estimate after reviewing your property.
Unresolved violations compound. DOB violations can trigger stop work orders and block future permits. ECB violations accumulate interest and can result in liens on your property. HPD violations can lead to housing court proceedings and 7(a) receiver appointments. Acting quickly saves money.
Yes. We work across Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island. Agency relationships and procedures vary by borough — we know them all.
Yes, this is one of our specialties. Defaulted ECB fines often carry interest that doubles or triples the original penalty. We file to vacate the default and represent you at the re-hearing to reduce or eliminate the fine.
We'll review your property and outline a plan — no obligation.
