Who is this for?
Tenants Not Paying Rent
Eviction filing services are essential for landlords dealing with tenants who consistently fail to pay rent on time or have stopped paying altogether.
Failure to Comply with Notices
When a tenant ignores warnings or notices to fix a lease violation, refuses entry for inspections or repairs and fails to follow building rules or safety codes.
Illegal Activities on the Property
When a landlord discovers that a tenant is conducting illegal activities on the property, such as drug manufacturing or distribution, eviction filing services can expedite the process.
Lease Expiration
Landlords may need to file for eviction when a lease expires and the tenant refuses to vacate the property.
Consistently Disruptive Tenants
Landlords with tenants who consistently violate noise ordinances or engage in disruptive behavior that negatively affects neighbors or the property's community.
Property Damage
Landlords dealing with tenants who have caused significant damage to the rental property beyond normal wear and tear.

How it works
Step 1
Initial Consultation and Case Evaluation (Day 1)
Complete the intake form and we'll call you to walk through next steps and what to expect.
Step 2
We prepare and file your paperwork
We prepare your eviction documents from the information you provide, file them with the court, and coordinate service on your tenant.
Step 3
Writ of possession and updates
If your tenant doesn't respond, we prepare the paperwork for the writ of possession and keep you updated until the Sheriff returns your property. An uncontested eviction typically takes 4 to 6 weeks from the day the notice is served
Step 1
Initial Consultation and Case Evaluation (Day 1)
Our journey begins with a comprehensive consultation to understand your specific situation. We'll review all pertinent documents, including your lease agreement and any correspondence with your tenant, to assess your case's viability based on Florida's eviction laws. Our goal is to ensure a legally sound basis for eviction, outlining a clear action plan that aligns with your needs.
Step 2
Notice Preparation and Filing (3-4 business days)
In compliance with Florida law, we draft and serve the legally required eviction notice to your tenant. For non-payment of rent, a 3-Day Notice is prepared (optional service), giving your tenant three business days to pay or vacate. Should the tenant fail to comply, we proceed to file the eviction complaint with the court, meticulously preparing and submitting all necessary documentation to advance your case.
Step 3
Finalizing Eviction and Property Reclamation (4-5 weeks)
Following a favorable judgment, we secure a Writ of Possession from the court, which is executed by the sheriff, granting the tenant 24 hours to vacate. We stand by you throughout this final stage, ensuring the tenant's departure and helping you reclaim your property. Our comprehensive approach ensures a smooth transition back to property possession, respecting all Florida legal standards.
