Evicting a tenant is not as easy as it may seem. In San Francisco, a landlord is obliged to terminate the tenancy agreement first before you evict a tenant. Before you start the eviction process, the first step is to give the tenant a written notice of eviction setting out the cause for the eviction and requiring them to leave the property within the grace period given by state law.
In case the tenant refused to move out even after receiving the eviction notice, then you will be forced to file an eviction lawsuit which is also known as forcible entry and unlawful detainer lawsuit. A competent California landlord-tenant dispute attorney can help you understand the eviction process.
Mediation services are often available through various programs. Many cities offer free or low-cost community mediation programs that handle landlord-tenant disputes. These services are often rendered through both private companies as well as state and local bar associations.
Small claims courts are structured to provide a quick and efficient resolution to solve commercial landlord-tenant disputes. However, you have to check the filing requirements with your local courts. Most of the small claims courts are allowed to hear cases, where the money involved, does not exceed a specific amount. If the case exceeds this amount, you will need to file a separate lawsuit in the appropriate court.
Most states, like California, do not allow either party to bring lawyers to small claims court. Both parties can save on attorney’s fees because they no longer need legal representation. If you have failed to resolve a commercial landlord-tenant dispute on your own, consider speaking with a credible landlord-tenant dispute lawyer in California to get helpful legal advice regarding your case.Understanding Landlord Security Deposit Disputes What are the common landlord…
