You might not own it, but it’s still home and you have rights. The most important thing to remember about an eviction or unlawful detainer is that it’s conducted according to expedited procedures. You must not delay to take action if you’re served with either a three-day notice or an unlawful detainer summons and complaint. But taking the wrong action or failing to act at all can have disastrous consequences, including eviction. The first step you should take is to contact me as soon as possible to raise a skilled unlawful detainer defense.
My experience representing landlords in eviction cases against tenants and conducting foreclosures of homes on behalf of banks has given me a broad, in-depth knowledge of substantive landlord-tenant law, landlord strategies to expect and courtroom procedures that must be followed.
My fees for eviction defense are:
$500 plus costs of suit for a bench trial;
$1,000 plus costs of suit for a jury trial.
