Can someone please explain to me how it was possible for a man to have a verbal and written agreement to rent property from my father and not pay rent? Yes you read that correctly. He built a gas station on my fathers property and been there for over a year! Now we come to find out that my fathers business partner whom is now deceased owed a lot of money to the DEC . This was all unknown to my father whom is now being strong armed by this man who has the money to fight against him because he wasn't fair please I need this explained to me!!!!

Deadbeats are very clever.
Advise your father to file for eviction.
Or, hire a lawyer to prosecute the eviction.
He can probably forget collecting any money, when he's finally evicted.
In the future he should demand higher deposits, and maybe rent by the week, if cash is a problem.

Being a landlord isn't easy.
 
The "how" is explained by the "did."

Your father needs an attorney to evict and/or sue the tenant for the money.
Yes your right but he's completely drained so our only option is to sit by and watch him get away with it. I even tried to have him evicted through court but he has lawyers at his beckon call I guess more or less I was looking for a miracle. Thanks for your response

This is all a result of a situation where my father had a business partner that was 50 50 and he literally drained the businesses dry. There use to be three flourishing gas stations on william Floyd Parkway in Shirley New York. My father lost one due to monies owed that his partner took loans out and the other two went bankrupt and then my father found this man to rent the properties in which he rebuilt a gas station . He was able to get away with paying rent because apparently he had a shell corporation with no money in it
