What Happens During an eviction
Learn More About The Eviction Process
Notice of Eviction Concern
Before your landlord can decide to evict you, they have a legal responsibility and obligation to notify you of why you’re about to be evicted. Depending on your lease, your circumstances, or any previous agreements, there are any number of reasons why your landlord may decide to evict you and your family. If you’ve received a notice from your landlord about eviction, now is the time to either contact legal representation or speak directly with your landlord to try and remedy the situation, if possible. If it’s not possible for you to remedy, then you will likely want representation as the eviction process includes legal proceedings.
Serving
If you’re unable to remedy the cause for concern that your landlord has laid out as to why they want to evict you, or you think that the eviction notice was wrongfully assigned, then you’ll likely move forward to the next step of the eviction process, which is being served to appear in court with your landlord for the legal hearing. If you have not spoken with or worked with an attorney who specializes in eviction cases at this point, you should contact a legal team to help you move forward and to start creating a strategy for your defense during the court proceedings.
Legal Proceedings and Outcome
Once you’ve been served, you’ll move forward through the legal process of the eviction in court. If you have an eviction defense attorney, you’ll be better prepared for this step, because you’ll have a dedicated plan of action and representation for your defense during this step. This is a crucial part of the process because if the judge rules in your favor, you likely won’t have to move, but if the judge rules in favor of your landlord, you must vacate the premises within a stipulated time frame.
