Chatsworth Eviction Attorney: Assisting Landlords with Tenant Evictions

Feb. 2, 2012 - PRLog -- You’d think that removing a non-paying tenant in Chatsworth would be simple.  The tenant stopped paying the rent, so they need to move, right?  While the answer is usually "yes," a Chatsworth landlord may not take matters into his own hands and remove the tenant from the property.  The landlord/tenant laws in California tend to favor the tenant in many respects.  Once you, as the Chatsworth landlord, have voluntary given possession of property to a tenant, removing that tenant can take time and money.

This law firm assists Chatsworth landlords in evicting non-paying tenants.  We can also assist in removing tenants who are in violation of the lease terms (for example, the tenant keeps a pet at the house in violation of a no-pets clause within the lease).

The first step in a Chatsworth eviction is to issue a 3 Day Notice to Pay Rent or Quit.  We will prepare this form for you.  We can either serve it on the tenants, or you can serve it once we have prepared the document.  Serving a 3 Day Notice on your Chatsworth tenant can be effected by hand delivering it to the tenant, by delivering it to a competent adult on at the premises, or by posting a copy on the front door and mailing a copy to the Chatsworth tenant.  This starts the Chatsworth eviction process.

After the 3 days have elapsed, we will prepare the Chatsworth eviction paperwork and file it with the court.  This is an actual lawsuit.  The primary goal of a Chatsworth eviction is to get possession of the property back into the hands of the landlord.

After the Chatsworth eviction is filed with the court, we will have the tenant served.  If the tenant fails to respond to the Chatsworth eviction complaint, then we almost automatically win the case and will request a default judgment from the court.  However, if the Chatsworth tenant responds, then we will fight the case on your behalf.
