What to Do? - Gut Renovation Next Door Causing Havoc & Damage

[Daniel C.]

We recently purchase a multifamily property in Brooklyn New York. As luck would have it, the property next door was sold days later. The owner, listed as an LLC, has begun doing a major gut renovation (expansion and construction). Our tenants on the 1st floor have recently reported issues, among them lots of heavy dust in their apartment even though the windows are closed; and hearing mice / rats behind the walls. Although these are some of the issues expected when a full renovation and construction is happening right next door to an attached house; it is an extreme inconvenience to a family who recently moved in.

We are trying to speak with the workers doing the work next door and trying to reach out to the owner / developer. Someone also suggested installing electronic pest repellents to help ward off the mice behind the walls or getting a professional exterminator.

Looking for recommendations on a good moderately priced attorney in the Brooklyn, NY (or surrounding areas).  Thank you.
