I'm in a difficult situation in New York and trying to figure out my next steps.

lease says no pets but ESA rights. I've been dealing with this for about 15 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

I have been renting for 7 years. My monthly rent is $891. I have a written lease.

Has anyone been through something similar? What worked for you?

I had a similar issue and ended up consulting with an attorney. It was worth the $200-300 for the initial consultation just to understand my rights.
