An elderly (93) acquaintance of mine let a single woman move into her upstairs apartment on the verbal contract of barter (cooking, cleaning) for use of the apt. She did what she could re: got references and interview, but the woman has stopped doing any work. She's been told to move, but says she can't find another place. I'm trying to help this elderly woman who is being taken advantage of. I could serve an eviction notice or tell her the apt will be cleaned out in say 4 days & to move. I've talked to real estate friends & they are unclear about what to do. Can't get through to legal aid. Any suggestions?
