The civil process by which a landlord may legally remove a tenant from their leased property is known as eviction. Eviction may occur when a tenant fails to pay rent, when the conditions of the lease agreement are violated, or in other legal scenarios. In general, the tenant and landlord should work out an agreeable settlement to prevent eviction proceedings for overdue rent and utilities. If no solution is found, the landlord or owner has the power to terminate the contract and evict the tenant.

What is an Eviction Notice?
