Whether you are a landlord seeking possession or a tenant defending lawful rights, obtaining informed guidance is key to a smooth process under California law.
An eviction is a legal process that ends a tenancy when a tenant breaches the lease, fails to pay rent, or the term ends. The process is governed by state statute and local rules, and requires proper notices and court filings.
Key steps include reviewing notices, preparing pleadings, serving papers, and obtaining a court order for possession if needed. Timelines and compliance with notice requirements are essential.
