"The overwhelmed firms have already started rejecting hundreds of cases in Queens and the Bronx, The News reported last week...

But legal providers say the growing caseload makes it increasingly unlikely they’ll be able to take new cases in Queens, Manhattan, Brooklyn, or the Bronx by next month."

The last two years have been a lot for both landlords and tenants due to the pandemic now we're about to enter the aftermath. The Legal Aid Society needs to be funded ASAP. People were having a hard time completing paperwork for pandemic relief rental assistance and now you want these same people representing themselves in court for their housing court. I'm fearful that there are so many people who are going to miss out on asserting merit based defenses and may lose their housing just because they didn't have an attorney to help them.

The Legal Aid Society will tell court administrators on Monday that it can’t take 130 cases in Manhattan and 100 in Brooklyn this month. Another group, Legal Services NYC, can’t take any more cases in Brooklyn.
