    Default Can My Boyfriend Kick Me Out of His Apartment

    My question involves an eviction in the state of: New York

    I have been living with my boyfriend for 3 years we have a 17month old daughter. things are not working out and i have been behind on paying some of my bills. All my mail and correspondence including my dirvers license show our address. He wants me to move by July 31st or he says he will put my stuff out on the street. Can he legally kick me out. He owns the home in which we live. He says my daughter can stay but I have to leave. Please help. We have had some domestic issues in the past I have never contacted the authorities however I have pictures and scars from the abuse.

    Your boyfriend would need to begin the process of LEGALLY evicting you if he wishes to have you leave his home.

    However, if he has been physically violent to you in the past, what makes you think he won't be if you don't move out by the end of the month. Wouldn't it be better if you found a safer place for you and your daughter to reside NOW?

    But it's more likely that he will simply change the locks and see what she does to try to get back in. Perhaps the police would help her; perhaps they would tell her that it's a civil matter. She can investigate the policies of the local police department now, just in case it becomes an issue.

    Building off of your other suggestion, given the past history of abuse, it would likely be a good idea to get help from a domestic violence program -- not necessarily room in the shelter, but any assistance they can offer with housing before the matter becomes a crisis.
