NYC Marshal Nonpayment Eviction Services
The Part Your Attorney Doesn’t Handle
A lot of landlords don’t realize this until they’re already in it — your attorney handles the housing court case, but once the Warrant of Eviction is issued, you need a NYC Marshal to actually execute it. That’s where we come in.
NYC Marshal Edward Guida #14 handles the legal execution of Warrants of Eviction for nonpayment of rent across all five boroughs. Whether your property is in the South Bronx, Central Brooklyn, Harlem, Southeast Queens, or Staten Island, we prepare the warrant requisition, submit it to the court, and carry out the process from start to finish.
This is all we do. We know the courts, the paperwork, and the borough-specific dynamics that can slow things down if you’re working with someone who doesn’t.

What You Actually Get When You Work With Us
From warrant intake to execution, here’s what working with an experienced, officially appointed NYC Marshal looks like in practice.
- Your warrant requisition is prepared correctly the first time — no errors that send you back to square one and cost you more time.
- We submit directly to the courts rather than by mail, cutting out the lag that slower offices build into your timeline.
- You’ll hear from us when something happens with your case — by phone or email, so you’re never left guessing where things stand.
- We handle the notice of eviction requirements, including the state’s online posting rule, so your case stays legally airtight from day one.
- If your tenant pays the full amount owed before execution, we walk you through exactly what that means for your case and what happens next.
- Every eviction is carried out respectfully and professionally — which matters legally, practically, and for your peace of mind as a property owner.

NYC’s Eviction System Is Built to Slow You Down
By the time you’re looking for a marshal, you’ve probably already spent six months to over a year in housing court. The nonpayment process in New York City is one of the longest and most procedurally complex in the country — and that’s before the warrant execution phase even begins.
NYC’s Right to Counsel program means your tenant may have had a free attorney fighting the case the entire time. Housing court backlogs in the Bronx, Brooklyn, and Queens are real and significant. The Bronx alone processes thousands of nonpayment cases annually, with particularly heavy caseloads in the South Bronx and along the Grand Concourse. Brooklyn’s housing court handles an enormous volume across Central Brooklyn and beyond. And newer laws like the Good Cause Eviction legislation have added procedural layers that didn’t exist a few years ago.
All of that is behind you now. What you need at this stage is a marshal who moves fast, files correctly, and doesn’t create new delays with sloppy paperwork or slow court submissions. That’s exactly what we’ve been doing since 1988 — across every borough, in every type of nonpayment case.

Legal Possession or Full Eviction — Here’s the Difference
When you hire us to execute a Warrant of Eviction, you have two options: Legal Possession or a full Eviction. Understanding the difference matters before we start.
Legal Possession means we take back control of the property on your behalf — typically used when the tenant has already vacated or you have reason to believe they will leave without a physical removal. A full Eviction involves the physical removal of the tenant and their belongings, which requires a bonded moving company and a licensed warehouse for storage under New York law.
We’ll walk you through which option fits your situation. Our office has handled both across the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, and Staten Island — in buildings ranging from small two-family homes to larger multi-unit properties. We know what each scenario involves and how to handle it without creating new problems for you.

Frequently Asked Questions
My attorney got the judgment — do I need to hire a marshal separately?
Yes, and this is one of the most common points of confusion for landlords going through this process for the first time. Your attorney handles the housing court case — the petition, the hearing, the judgment. But once the court issues a Warrant of Eviction, the attorney’s role in that phase is essentially done. You need to separately hire a NYC Marshal (or the Sheriff’s Office) to physically execute the warrant. The marshal is the one authorized by law to carry out the actual removal. If you’re not sure whether your warrant is ready to be executed, call our office and we’ll help you figure out where you stand.
Can my tenant stop the eviction even after I hire a marshal in NYC?
In a nonpayment case specifically, yes — New York law allows a tenant to pay the full amount of rent owed at any point before the marshal physically carries out the eviction to stay the proceeding. This is written into state law under RPAPL § 749(3). It’s frustrating, but it’s important to know going in. If a tenant pays in full before we execute, the warrant is stayed and you’ll need to go back to court if nonpayment continues. We’ll explain exactly what this means for your case when you contact us, so there are no surprises on the day of execution.
How long does it take to execute a nonpayment eviction warrant in New York City?
Once we receive your Warrant of Eviction and prepare the requisition, the timeline depends on the court’s processing speed and the required notice period before we can physically execute. NYC housing courts — particularly in the Bronx, Brooklyn, and Queens — can have meaningful backlogs, so we work to move through each step as quickly as the process allows. What we control is this: we submit directly to the court rather than by mail, we prepare paperwork correctly the first time, and we notify you promptly when there are updates. Errors and delays caused by sloppy intake are avoidable — and we avoid them.
What’s the difference between a NYC Marshal and the Sheriff’s Office for evictions?
Both are authorized to execute Warrants of Eviction in New York City, but they operate very differently. The NYC Sheriff’s Office is a government agency with its own scheduling and administrative structure. NYC Marshals like our office are independently appointed public officials who operate as their own businesses — which means we’re directly accountable to our clients in a way a government agency isn’t. Marshals are generally known for faster turnaround and more direct client communication. We serve landlords across all five boroughs — the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, and Staten Island — and our entire operation is built around moving your case forward efficiently.
What paperwork do I need to bring when I hire a marshal for a nonpayment eviction?
At minimum, you’ll need the Warrant of Eviction issued by the NYC housing court. Depending on how your case was resolved — whether through a default judgment, a stipulation that was later breached, or a trial — there may be additional documentation required, such as a default affidavit or a copy of the stipulation. If you’re not sure what you have or what’s missing, contact our office directly. We’ve been handling nonpayment cases across the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, and Staten Island since 1988, and we can quickly identify what’s needed to move your case forward without unnecessary back-and-forth.
Does NYC Marshal Edward Guida #14 handle evictions in all five boroughs, including the Bronx and Staten Island?
Yes — we cover the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, and Staten Island. Our office is based in Corona, Queens, which puts us in the middle of one of the busiest eviction markets in the city. The Bronx has the highest concentration of executed evictions in NYC, with significant case volume along the Grand Concourse corridor and throughout the southern Bronx. Brooklyn’s housing court handles an enormous caseload, particularly in Central Brooklyn. We know these boroughs, we know the courts, and we’ve been executing warrants across all five since 1988. One call to our office covers wherever your property is located.
