[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP] Subject: Notice of Illegal Entry by Landlord Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health. I am writing to address a concerning incident that occurred recently. On [date], I discovered that you had entered my rented premises located at [address] in Newark, New Jersey without my prior knowledge or consent. As a tenant, I understand and respect that you may occasionally need access to the property for certain authorized purposes, such as maintenance, repairs, or emergency situations. However, it is essential that you abide by the laws and guidelines governing landlord-tenant relationships, which clearly state that landlords must provide tenants with proper notice and obtain our consent before entering our rented property, except in cases of emergency. Unfortunately, your unannounced entry has not only violated my privacy rights but has caused substantial distress and discomfort. I urge you to refrain from such actions in the future and to respect my rights as a tenant. It is vital for us to maintain a professional and respectful landlord-tenant relationship based on transparency and adherence to established laws. In light of this incident, I kindly request that you take the following actions: 1. Cease illegal entry: Please understand that unauthorized entry is unacceptable and infringes upon my right to privacy as a tenant. Any entry into the premises without my prior consent is unlawful and must not reoccur. 2. Communication protocol: I request that you establish a standard communication protocol for future property access. Kindly provide a notice period of at least 24 hours via written communication (email or letter) before entering the premises, unless it is a genuine emergency. 3. Security measures: I kindly ask you to enhance the security measures in place to ensure that unauthorized entry does not occur again. This may include maintaining the confidentiality and security of any keys or entry codes to the property. 4. Apology and assurances: I expect a formal apology for the unauthorized entry, along with written assurances that my privacy will be respected and that such incidents will not reoccur in the future. Failure to comply with my reasonable requests would not only further violate my rights but also warrant legal action to ensure the protection of my tenancy rights and privacy. I genuinely hope there will be no need to escalate this matter and that we can resolve it amicably. Please provide a written response within [reasonable time frame, e.g., 5 business days] to address the concerns I have raised. Your prompt action and cooperative response in rectifying this matter will be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to a mutually respectful and lawful landlord-tenant relationship moving forward. Yours sincerely, [Your Name]
