Lawyer here. I’m not going to read your Reddit post. Go get a lawyer. Don’t ask your cousin, your friend, Reddit, or Google. Call a real-ass lawyer. The textbooks for criminal and property law in particular should just be titled “motherfuckers who said and did things when they shouldn’t have because no lawyers.”

OP should call OTA. Others have said it, but it should be the first step.

Just a heads up since you are a lawyer. 99.99999% of L&T attorneys only represent landlords. OPs only option will be to call OTA or if they by chance qualify for a low income lawyer to reach out to one of the pro bono groups (who can be helpful - especially when facing an imminent eviction - although they will request a case number for proof). There's literally one tenant attorney that I know of who only reps tenants and I wouldn't really recommend them (having used them in one instance).

Unless you are connected. If you are connected, your cousin could send "some friends of ours" over to speak with the landlady to explain why she was looking at this thing through the wrong lens.
