Key steps include providing lawful notice, filing an unlawful detainer complaint, serving the defendant, attending hearings, and, if needed, obtaining a writ of possession to enforce an eviction.

In California, eviction timelines vary by county and by the reason for eviction. After proper notice, the landlord files an unlawful detainer complaint and the tenant has a set response period. If the tenant contests the case, hearings can extend the timeline; if not, the court can issue a judgment and later a writ of possession to enforce the eviction.
Notices such as a three-day, 30-day, or 60-day notice are required depending on the reason for eviction and the terms of the lease. Notices must be properly served and comply with California law before a landlord can file an unlawful detainer action.

Costs can include court filing fees, service of process, and attorney fees depending on your arrangement. Additional costs may arise if enforcement actions are needed.
