How an eviction works with us

1. The right notice

We prepare a 3 day, 30, 60 or 90 day notice that meets state and local rules, with exact dates.

2. Court filing

If the tenant does not pay or move, we file the unlawful detainer and handle service.

3. Judgment

We request a default or take the case to trial, and negotiate move out agreements when they help you.

4. Keys back

We obtain the writ of possession and coordinate the sheriff lockout so you get the property back.

About the attorney

Why landlords choose us

Our goal is careful legal work and responsive service at a fair price.

Focused on eviction

Eviction is our core practice. One defective notice can restart the whole process, so we get the details right the first time.

Current on the law

We track state and local changes, including the 2025 longer response time, Los Angeles rent thresholds and new 2026 statutes.

Affordable and clear pricing

We quote our fees up front and can discuss a payment plan that fits your budget.

What changed in California eviction law

More time for tenants to respond. Since January 1, 2025, a tenant has 10 court days (not 5) to respond to an eviction lawsuit, which adds roughly a week to most cases.
Higher threshold in unincorporated Los Angeles County. Since spring 2026, a landlord in unincorporated areas generally cannot evict for nonpayment unless the tenant owes more than two months of HUD fair market rent. The City of Los Angeles threshold remains one month.
Stricter rules for owner move in and remodel terminations under the Tenant Protection Act, in effect since April 1, 2024.
New for 2026: landlords must provide a working stove and refrigerator in most new or renewed leases, and tenants whose Social Security benefits are delayed have a new defense in nonpayment cases.
