Don’t Be A Victim
Eviction cases are “summary proceedings,” which means the process is fast. What is normally a year(s) long process to bring a case to court, an eviction case is condensed into a one-to-two-month period. To compensate tenants for the speed and short time to prepare, the eviction filing requirements are very strict. Any misstep by a landlord can be fatal to an eviction lawsuit.
A lack of knowledge of the procedures and requirements could result in an eviction against you that otherwise would not be allowed. Landlords should follow the rules just like everyone else. Learn about the eviction process. Make sure your landlord is following the laws. They are there for your protection.

don’t delay
Time is of the essence if you are being evicted. Tenants usually have only 5-days to respond to a summons or else a default judgment will result against you. A default judgment can be reported to the credit bureau(s) and it can follow you, a tenant, around for many years.
A 3-day notice to pay-or-quit usually starts the process. If you have received a 3-day notice, you will need to act quickly. If you cannot pay rent, or have a legal reason to withhold the rent, you need to know your options. Contact The Law Office of H. Daniel Na as soon as you can.
