The process starts with a Notice to Vacate. If the tenant does not leave, the landlord can file an eviction case in court. If the judge rules in favor of the landlord, the court grants possession of the property, and a Writ of Possession may be issued if the tenant still refuses to leave.
Yes. Lease violations such as unauthorized occupants, property damage, or illegal activity can be grounds for eviction.
· Property address
· Tenant name(s)
· County where the property is located
· Reason for eviction (non-payment, holdover, lease violation)
· Copy of the lease (if available)
A Notice to Vacate is the first legal step in the eviction process. It informs the tenant that they must leave the property within a certain time before the landlord can file an eviction case in court.
Errors in notices or court filings can cause delays or dismissals. Proper preparation helps keep the case moving efficiently.
In many cases, we can handle the court process on your behalf. We will advise you if your appearance is necessary.

SB 38 took effect January 1, 2026, and made two changes that directly affect your Notice to Pay or Vacate. First, notices can now be delivered by email or commercial carrier (UPS, FedEx) in addition to hand delivery and mail — but electronic delivery is only valid if your lease already gives written permission for it. Simply having a tenant's email address is not enough, and an unauthorized email notice can be thrown out in court. Second, if a tenant has no prior late payments during the current lease term, the law now requires a "pay rent or vacate" notice giving them the chance to catch up, rather than a straight notice to vacate.
Getting either of these wrong is a new and easy way for a case to be delayed or dismissed. We check your lease and payment history first, so the notice we prepare is the correct version, delivered the correct way, from the start.
