I am often asked what to do if a tenant dies as a Buffalo Attorney. First off, you should not grant access to the apartment to anyone unless they provide a certificate from the court that they are an administrator of the estate, executor of the estate, or the county public administrator. Secondly, you can file a claim against the estate if an executor or an administrator is appointed to recover your lost rent and damages to the apartment.
Has your tenant recently died? If so, contact an experienced Landlord Tenant Attorney in Buffalo, like Robert Friedman.
